Hospital Superbug kann sich von medizinischen plastischen, erstklassigen Studien enthüllen

> A superbug that commonly causes infections in hospitals can feed on plastic used for medical interventions, potentially making it even more dangerous, a world-first study has found.

> The bug is a bacteria species called Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is commonly found in hospital environments and can cause potentially deadly infections in the lungs, urinary tract and blood.

> Now, scientists have analyzed a strain of this bacteria from a hospital patient’s wound, which revealed a surprising trick that could enable it to persist on surfaces and in patients for longer — its ability to break down the biodegradable plastics used in stints, sutures and implants.

Please inject into my brain. Neurons clogged with microplastic. Can’t think right.
