美國洛克斐勒大學的科學家發現,有一種蛋白質具有對抗駭人的炭疽菌的能力,並能淨化遭炭疽孢子污染的大面積區域(如生化武器造成)。這種蛋白質能混入溶劑中,在受到炭疽菌大規模污染時,使用於建築物、交通運輸設備、衣物,甚至於肌膚,提供了一種安全又簡單的方式來防治其擴散。
Protein Found That Explodes Anthrax Bacteria on Contact
A protein that can fight dreaded anthrax infections and decontaminate large areas where anthrax spores have been released as a bioweapon has been discovered by scientists at Rockefeller University. The protein will be mixed into a solution that could be used in buildings, on transportation equipment, on clothing, even on skin, providing a safe, easy way to fight the spread of anthrax in the event of a mass release.
