stop what you're doing you need to know this scientists at Stanford have made mice transparent that's right researchers at Stanford have figured out how to make live mice partially transparent using a food Dy called tartrazine you know that same yellow dye in Doritos by simply applying a solution of this dye to the mice's skin scientists could see their internal organs like the liver and even the Beating Heart without any surgery imagine that peeking inside a living creature without a single cut and here's the kicker this method is safe and reversible just rinse off the Dy and the mice go back to normal while we don't know if this will work on humans yet due to our thicker skin it opens up a world of possibilities think about it less painful Diagnostics better medical research and who knows what else this discovery could revolutionize how we study live organisms so next time you munch on some Doritos remember that same die might just be a key to Future scientific breakthroughs mind-blowing right
