New copper and zinc suits created to aid penguin healing
Scientists in Chile have developed a special medical suit crafted from copper and zinc to assist penguins in healing after undergoing surgery for injuries sustained from fishing nets. These suits are embedded with tiny particles that stop bacteria from spreading while the birds recuperate. The team noted that the zinc promotes the development of new blood vessels, allowing the penguins' injured skin to mend more quickly.
