Guest guest Posted July 14, 2001 Report Share Posted July 14, 2001 In probably the grossest scientific development since the fecal enema, Biotechnologists at the University of Massachu- setts are experimenting with fibers implanted with a strain of Escherichia coli that will consume dirt and human sweat. That's right - living clothes that clean themselves. When the food runs out, the bacteria can be reactivated with nutrients, they hope. For the self-cleaning shirt, it means you would only have to wear the garment and sweat it up a little in order bring the bacteria back to life. " You could end up having to feed your shirt instead of wash it, " one researcher told the British weekly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
