Bacteria Killing Flashlight.

Yeah, you read that correctly. Now, which meaning did I intend?

This is just out. In the Journal of Physics D, there was an article published a couple of days ago about a new plasma generating flashlight that kills surface bacteria. I'm not going to go into the science of here, but it seems that this $100, room temperature device is poised to revolutionize the medical field when it comes to controlling bacterial infections.

What with the problems with antibiotics these days, I'd say this invention is very timely.
