FDA adopts 3 standards focusing on nanotechnology
U.S. FDA adopted 3 nanotechnology standards as part of update to List of Recognized Standards.
The chameleon reorganizes its nanocrystals to change colors
Many chameleons have the remarkable ability to exhibit complex and rapid color changes during social interactions. A collaboration of scientists unveils the mechanisms that regulate this phenomenon.
Researchers snap-shot fastest observations of superconductivity yet
An international team of researchers has used infinitely short light pulses to observe ultrafast changes in the electron-level properties of superconductors, setting a new standard for temporal resolution in the field.
Mid-IR frequency combs enable high resolution spectroscopy for sensitive gas sensing
Researchers have developed mid-infrared frequency combs, working in the mid-infrared molecular fingerprinting region of the electromagnetic spectrum. In this wavelength region, many molecules have specific absorption bands that can be used in spectroscopy to determine the presence and concentration of these molecules in samples.
New formula for identifying suitable graphene substrate
Physicists have developed a criterion with which scientists can seek suitable substrate materials for graphene in a targeted way. Interactions with the substrate material often lead to a loss of the amazing properties that characterize this special form of carbon.
Non-protein nucleating agent specifically designed for automated protein crystallization trials
Scientists are developing new nanomaterials and technologies that include high-throughput methods for producing nucleating protein crystals that are pivotal to the structural determination of biological molecules at atomic resolution. These underpin rational drug design, the understanding of biochemical mechanisms and other biotechnological applications.
