Nanotechnology to leverage infections and antibiotic sensing
“Miniaturized diagnostic tests can revolutionize the speed of diagnosing infectious diseases and hereditary ones such as haemophilia,” said Dr Joseph Ndieyira of UCL, senior author of a paper that has just been published in Nature Nanotechnology. Infections caused by...
Virtual Supercomputer Finds Clean Water Clue
An article published in the journal Nature Nanotechnology today discusses a recently discovered phenomenon in which the use of carbon nanotubes, under specific conditions, could potentially lead to more efficient water filtering with less expense and less impact on...
Support morphology affects nanoparticle adsorption
Chi-Ming Yim, working as a postdoc in the LCN group of Geoff Thornton, has discovered an intriguing phenomenon in adsorption properties of nanoparticles. Low temperature scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) experiments, carried out in the LCN, have allowed direct...
