Scientists have successfully tested a new type of paint designed to eliminate harmful microbes on various surfaces.
This innovative paint is effective against staphylococcus aureus (Mrsa), flu (GIP) and Covid-19, which is effective against bacterial and viral species.
Researchers from the Faculty of Pharmaceutical at the University of Nottingham invented this paint, adding strong disinfecting, which dentists often use for oral infections and cleaning before surgery.
The results were announced on April 23 in a research article published in Scientific Magazine Scientific Magazine.
The paint is suitable for use to plastic and other hard, without surfaces.
Despite the fact that hospitals are the first areas that come to mind, researchers say that paint can be applied in other conditions with high contact, such as public transport and aviation industries.
Thus, the infection can be prevented by an infection from surfaces that people often come into contact.
In hospitals, people who turn to polyclins for various reasons can reduce the risk of infection. Such infections, spreading in hospitals, can lead to patients of patients.
New research. Felicity de Cogan, ScitechDaily’ye, said: “In our first study, we made a new antimicrobial paint with ideal activity, including a disinfectant for polymer. In addition, when touching it, it does not apply to the environment and does not flow from the surface, ”he said.
“The paint can be widely used because it is universal, cheap and durable material, can be applied to all types of surfaces.”
