    Copper surfaces can kill off MRSA

    Copper killed the superbug in 90 minutes
    MRSA infections could be reduced by using copper alloys for surfaces in hospitals, UK scientists believe.The University of Southampton team found the superbug was unable to survive on copper alloy surfaces for longer than 90 minutes.
    MRSA can live for up to three days on surfaces such as stainless steel, Dr Jonathan Noyce and colleagues found.
    They presented their findings at a recent meeting of the American Society for Microbiology in New Orleans.
