DAY 1DAY 1

page 6

Researchers have developed a self-cleaning plastic wrap that repels

bacteria -- and could be used to prevent the transfer of antibiotic-

resistant superbugs, and other forms of dangerous bacteria.

A team of scientists from Canada's McMaster University used a

combination of nano-scale surface engineering and chemistry to develop

a plastic surface -- a treated form of transparent wrap -- which repels all

kinds of bacteria.

The coating, inspired by water-resistant lotus leaves, is textured with

microscopic "wrinkles" that block out external molecules and are

chemically treated, meaning that water, blood, or bacteria bounce away

when they come into contact with the surface.

Scientists develop superbug-resistant, self-cleaning plastic wrap

INSTRUCTIONS: READ THE PASSAGE WITH YOUR TEACHER.DO THE LISTENING&REPEATING AS WELL AS THE SHADOWING.

THEN, ANSWER FEW QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PASSAGE.

DAY 1DAY 1

page 7

The plastic covering can be shrink wrapped onto surfaces that are

considered common breeding grounds for bacteria like MRSA -- such as

door handles, railings and IV stands.

"We developed the wrap to address the major threat that is posed by

multi-drug resistant bacteria," Leyla Soleymani, an engineering physicist

who co-led the research, published Friday in the journal ACS Nano, told

CNN.

"Given the limited treatment options for these bugs, it is key to reduce

their spread from one person to another," she added.

According to data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur in the UnitedStates every year, and more than 35,000 people die as a result of thesedrug-resistant infections.The researchers believe the new material could also be used to packagefood and could stop the spread of bacteria such as E.coli, salmonella, andlisteria from raw meats and foods.Some 20% of all drug-resistant infections come from the food we eat,according to the CDC."We're structurally tuning that plastic," Soleymani said in a statement. "Thismaterial gives us something that can be applied to all kinds of things," sheadded.The surface, the researchers say, is durable, flexible, and inexpensive tomake.

page 17

They tested the material using MRSA and Pseudomonas -- considered the

most dangerous forms of antibiotic-resistant bacteria -- using electron

microscope images to confirm that virtually no bacteria could transfer to

the surface.

"We can see this technology being used in all kinds of institutional and

domestic settings," Tohid Didar, who co-led the research, said. "As the

world confronts the crisis of anti-microbial resistance, we hope it will

become an important part of the anti-bacterial toolbox," he said.
