Using the same devious mechanism that enables some bacteria to
shrug off powerful antibiotics, scientists have developed
solar-powered nanofilters that remove antibiotics from the water in
lakes and rivers twice as efficiently as the best existing
technology. Their report appears in ACS’ journal NanoLetters.
