Single-molecule valve breakthrough could lead to early disease diagnosis

Molecules are incredibly small – around one hundred millionth the size of a softball – and they move randomly in liquids, making it difficult to manipulate them in a single form. To overcome this challenge, “nanofluidic devices” that can transport molecules in extremely narrow channels, similar in size to one millionth of a straw, are […]

Could combining biotech and photosynthetic cyanobacteria help the energy crisis?

A group of researchers in Switzerland is using photosynthetic bacteria to generate energy. After implanting nanotubes into them, the bacteria can create energy. And when the cells divide, those nanotubes stay with subsequent generations. While there’s a long way to go, and many questions to be answered, Ardemis Boghossian at EPFL’s School of Basic Sciences […]
