Scientists Engineer Spinach To Detect Bombs

‘Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has engineered spinach to be fully capable of finding unexploded land mines and buried munitions.
Scientists have injected nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes (tiny cylinders of carbon) into the plant, where the information can be monitored on a handheld device.
To tell if there are any threats in the area, scientists can wet the plants and shine a laser, such as one on their cell phone with the infrared censor disabled or small laptop onto the plant.’
