Researchers at the College of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have fostered a versatile, self-fueled bright C gadget called the Tribo-sanitizer that can inactivate two of the microbes liable for the overwhelming majority of foodborne diseases and deaths. The tribo-sanitizer's UVC light is fueled by the triboelectric impact—power that is created when two unique materials come into contact. In tests, the Tribo-sanitizer effectively inactivated two possibly dangerous foodborne microbes, Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes, principally by harming their DNA, as per discoveries distributed in the journal Nano Energy. The microorganisms chosen as testing targets are two of the most widely recognized reasons
