Scientists make temporarily transparent mice
Scientists have found that massaging tartrazine-aka "Yellow 5," aka the food dye used in Doritos-into the skin of mice can temporarily make the mice transparent. The Washington Post explains that in a recent study,
Scientists just made mice 'see-through' using food dye — and humans are next
A common food dye can turn the skin of living mice transparent, but we don't yet know if it'll work in humans.
