Hijacking bacteria's natural defences to trap, reveal pathogens

Bad bacteria could soon have no place left to hide, thanks to new materials that turn the cell’s own defenses against them. Scientists have developed a technique that could locate the potential source of an infection by hijacking the normal processes of pathogens, thus revealing their location. And by using fluorescent markers to tag these cells, they have even been able to detect them by using a simple mobile phone camera.
