Hello hello dear Ecencians! So today I was scrolling on my twitter feed and just as I was getting ready to go out to the city, I found a very peculiar video that I wanted to share with you guys. Caution - it is quite science related and fun!
Without any ado, here is the twitter link for today:

Penicillin kills bacteria by making them explode.
"Escherichia coli cells burst after treatment with ampicillin, a derivative of penicillin. Scientists believe that these cells burst due to the action of enzymes that break down the cell wall."
Sooo, basically - penicillin makes bacteria go boom! 😄😄
Have a great day ahead of you lovely people 💚💚
