A first-of-its-kind sprayable coating that can prevent the surface spread of infection from bacteria and viruses – including COVID-19 – over a sustained period has been developed by a team of Australian researchers. Described in the journal Advanced Science, the spray works two ways: to repel viruses and bacteria through an air-filled barrier, and killing […]
