nano-future.

How a mere single-step synthesis of a hydrocarbon and a simple salt compound produced these unique nanotube structures with antimicrobial capability is described in a paper posted on the Web site for the Journal of the American Chemical Society. The findings have implications for developing products that can simultaneously detect and kill biological weapons.

I dunno, this sorta thing sounds all good and well... but how long is it gunna be till the same technology is used to create the weapon?

not very. That's for sure.
