Cleaning pollutants from water with pollen and spores — without the ‘achoo!’ (video)

In addition to their role in plant fertilization and reproduction, pollens and spores have another, hidden talent: With a simple treatment, these cheap, abundant and renewable grains can be converted into tiny sponge-like particles that can grab on to pollutants and remove them from water, scientists report. Even better, these treated particles don’t trigger allergies. A brand-new video on the research is available at www.acs.org/HLS_Pollen_Sponge.
