There was a disgusting new idea reported from the scientists recently: They said that the brains of cockroaches cold help infectious diseases.
Some of you might be thinking " How come? ",well,it states that even tough cockroaches have small brains the chemical compounds in them can kill MRSA and E. coli two of the most harmful bacteria!
E. coli is planted in the human body, if you drink or eat something with coli you can get violently sick! SO,watch out!
MRSA stands for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus aureus
is a bacteria that can not be treated with medicine, and doctors have troubles healing it, but cockroach brains will heal the deal!
Simon Lee and Naveed Kahn are two microbiologists who worked on this study,they both work on this study at the Nottingham University in the United Kingdom, biologists are scientists that study living things and microbiologists study microscopic living things such as bacteria.
The scientists got interested in bugs since some soldiers came back from the middle east with strange infections. But what surprised them was that the cockroaches that live in that enviroment aren't infected at all! So now they are trying to find out ways they keep themselfes safe. But for now, cockroaches are annoying scary bugs with no help to us.
