A team of Chinese scientists has reportedly built up a novel method to battle the novel coronavirus which has kill more than 32,000 individuals globally.
As indicated by Global Times, the new weapon isn't a drug or a compound yet some nanomaterial.
"Chinese scientists have built up another weapon to battle the #coronavirus," the news gateway tweeted on Sunday.
"They state they have discovered a nanomaterial that can absorb and deactivate the infection with 96.5-99.9 percent proficiency," it included.
Nanomaterials are utilized in an variety of manufacturing processes, products and human services including paints, fi;ters, insulation and lubricant additives.
In healthcare, Nanozymes are nanomaterials with enzyme-like characteristics.
As indicated by the US NIH, researchers have not unanimously settled on a precise definition of nanomaterials, but agree that they are partially characterized by their tiny size, measured in nanometers.
"Nanotechnology can be utilized to structure pharmaceuticals that can target explicit organs or cells in the body, for example, malignant growth cells, and improve the adequacy of treatment," said NIH.
However, while designed nanomaterials give extraordinary advantages, "we know very little about the potential consequences for human health and nature. Indeed, even well-known materials, for example, silver for instance, may represent a risk when built to nano size," as per NIH.
