The future of antibiotics is looking bright — literally. Scientists gave antibiotics a “glow-up” by modifying penicillin to activate only when exposed to green light. The treatment reported in ACS Central Science precisely controlled E. coli bacterial growth and improved infected larval survival.
Green light activates this antibiotic only where it’s needed - American Chemical Society
To make a more efficient antibiotic treatment, researchers reporting in ACS Central Science modified penicillin, so that it’s activated only by green light.

Nature reports on how researchers are mobilizing against an executive order from President Donald Trump mandating the promotion of “gold standard science.” Researchers fear that the order will put US scientists and science under the thumb of political appointees. #academicsky 🧪
Trump’s call for ‘gold standard science’ has prompted an outcry: here’s why
Thousands have signed an open letter against the US president’s latest order, anxious about political interference in science and more.

Guinness World Record? 😀 😀
Finally, after 1 year and 5 months, almost 530 days, I received a rejection email from the editor of Phytochemistry Reviews. They stated that my manuscript is not suitable for publication in their journal.
