Cold fusion used to kill bacteria.

"We showed that all of the bacteria were killed pretty quickly . . . within
5 to 25 seconds. That's a very fast process," said corresponding author

department, University of Houston, Texas.

Scientists create gold nanoparticles in the lab by dissolving gold,
reducing the metal into smaller and smaller disconnected pieces until the
size must be measured in nanometers. One nanometer equals a billionth of a
meter. A human hair is between 50,000 to 100,000 nanometers in diameter.
Once miniaturized, the particles can be crafted into various shapes
including rods, triangles or disks.
