Ever wondered what happens when microscopic bubbles become bacterial bouncers? This week’s episode dives into the high-powered, real-world tech of DYNAJETS® hydrodynamic cavitation, a sci-fi-sounding disinfection system that uses bubble collapse to obliterate bacteria—including some of the toughest, like Cutibacterium acnes.

Join MD/PhD student and cartoon creator Steven Christian as he unpacks the paper “Disinfection of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria using DYNAJETS hydrodynamic cavitating jets” from Ultrasonics Sonochemistry. It's a splashy deep dive into:

• 🧪 Why gram-positive bacteria like C. acnes are harder to kill
  

• 💣 How popping bubbles generate forces strong enough to rupture microbial walls
  

• 💡 Why energy-efficient disinfection tech could revolutionize skin care and water treatment
  

• 🧬 And how all of this maps directly to the world of Cütie Catcherz, from Biofilm Fortresses to Buster Gel strategies!
  

💭 Whether you’re a science buff, skincare nerd, or a Cütie Catcherz fan, this episode connects microbiology to magical metaphors—and gives you a powerful lens for seeing why “brute force” isn’t always the best solution.
