Traitor bacteria help build graphene water filter that kills other bacteria

Researchers have used bacteria to build a new water filter that kills other bacteria

As important a technology as water filters are, they get less effective as bacteria builds up on their surface. Now, researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new type of membrane that reduces such biofouling by actively killing bacteria with graphene – and in an interesting twist, it's built by bacteria.
