"Bacteria's Worst Nightmare: Slippery Toilet Bowl Treatment Makes Them Slide Away"

Researchers have developed a transparent and colorless coating that can be applied to toilet bowls, making them more water-repellent and preventing bacteria from sticking. The coating, made by grinding silicone oil in a ball mill, forms a durable, oily layer on the surface. Tests showed that the treated area inhibited 99.99% of bacterial growth compared to the untreated area. This self-sanitizing treatment could have practical applications for public health.
