While we don't want to deactivate this part of the immune system for prolonged periods, this could potentially provide short-term protection," said Prof Abraham, whose team is now working on optimising the dosage and frequency of use of this drug to achieve the best protective effects against anaphylactic shock.

For many cars, it’s possible to deactivate the wireless setting so that you can’t open the door remotely.

While some previous methods utilized random fluorescence emission from single molecules, or "donut" shaped second light source to deactivate or deplete fluorescent sources outside of a desired area, this new method can be gentler on cells that might be damaged by intense or long exposure to light.
