New spray to prevent infection on hospital toys

A revolutionary spray at Alder Hey Children's Hospital is helping reduce hospital-acquired infections by making surfaces easier to clean and reducing bacteria. The spray, made from silicon dioxide or liquid glass, forms a protective layer on toys and other surfaces, repelling water and dirt. This innovation provides peace of mind for parents and has the potential for broader applications on frequently touched items. The use of nanotechnology in this spray is gaining attention for its practical benefits, despite challenges in public understanding.
