This article I found on Dogo news and it was posted by Meera Dolasia two days ago. This article is about a bacteria which a group of students in UK's New Castle University created for gluing concrete together or filling in holes in concrete. This bacteria was created by genetic engineering using an ordinary bacteria from soil. The name of this bacteria is BacillaFilla and it fills up the concrete cracks in the following way:
- bacterias enter the hole and they cluster together
- a hardening fiber is produced by this bacteria and
- a special kind of glue is created and it sticks everything together
This bacteria is still not on sale and that's a pity, because natural disasters are happening often and they destroy the concrete structures. For the time being, this ruined buildings must be completely thorn down or repaired with a new concrete whose production contaminates the environment. Imagine how easy would be just to put some bacteria in cracks and holes and wait for this wonder creatures to do all the repair work!
Is there a store that this product can be purchased?
