The YOU Docs, Drs. Roizen and Oz, spread the news (almost).
Company name not mentioned, but they're "intrigued" by the technology.
So you'll be as intrigued as we YOU Docs were by this news. First, Canadian researchers have cloned one of your body's systems for killing bad bugs. Antibodies use tiny, lethal blasts of ozone and hydrogen peroxide to attack certain germs -- zap, they're goners. The combo has been turned into an ozone-peroxide gas that, when pumped into a room, sterilizes everything: floors, ceilings, furniture, bathrooms, mattresses. (Bonus: It kills bed bugs.) MRSA, e. coli, c. difficile and other famously difficult bacteria keel over, as do viruses and molds. The disinfection process takes 60 minutes and supposedly leaves a pleasant smell, though we haven't had a whiff. Best news: It's available in early 2012.
> Disinfection process takes 60 minutes.
> Avail in early 2012.

> Bonus bonus: When the famous Dr. Oz gets behind the technology, people are gonna pay attention.

The YOU Docs
Friday, December 23, 2011
Used to be that when you needed surgery, your biggest worry was the operation itself. Today, superbugs like MRSA and other nasty infections that are Houdinis at outwitting antibiotics have made hospitals themselves scary. Like ants rushing to a picnic, these bad bugs flock to places full of people with weakened immune systems: hospitals. It has made checking in for even simple procedures not so simple. And it's why many patients arrive with jugs of hand sanitizer, and visitors bring it instead of flowers when they come to see friends.

Meanwhile, Israeli microbiologists have developed a novel way to attack the deadly bacteria: infecting these tiny terrorists with a gene that breaks down their resistance to antibiotics. It's a liquid that's added to other cleansers and is said to be easy to make and use, nontoxic and cheap. Testing's not complete. Still, it's good to have a plan B.
