A group of scientists from the University of California in Berkeley, USA proposed an entirely new type of paint, the effect of which is not based on the use of viruses. As reported the scientists, the same virus may form a most bizarre structures together in different clusters, which reflect the light rays with different wavelengths. In practice, this leads to the fact, that the same viruses in different ways by combining their structure, we can obtain completely different paint colors. For example, based on bacteriophage M13, scientists were able to get red, blue and green, that means getting the paint almost any hue and color based on a combination of these three primary colors. But while the new paint does not differ significantly resistant and is very sensitive to temperature, since viruses like the lowest form of life, it is easy to destroy previously established connection in the event of even a slight increase in temperature. So now, scientists work on viral paint, which will be more durable on the basis of different types of viruses.
