Nanofabrication – European Research Labs Apply Dip Pen Nanolithography - August 2010

Dip Pen Nanolithography® (DPN®) came to light as a novel research tool back in 1999 with a paper in Science from the a group at Northwestern University in the USA (1). Like many new technologi...

Monitoring Matrix Complexity During Ultra-Trace Level Multi-Residue Pesticide An... - July 2010

The RADAR-enabled Xevo TQ-S method enables the collection of spectral information on background components in the sample matrix while simultaneously collecting MRM data for the quantitation of target...

Modern Particle Characterisation under the Microscope - May 2010

The microscope retains a vital and wide-ranging role in modern industrial processes. For instance, the pressure to optimise the quality of cast components requires a means of examining large, polishe...

Thermal Microscopy in the Forensics Laboratory - April 2010

Over the last few decades, forensic science has played an increasingly important role in tracking down criminals and narrowing-down the list of suspects that the police need to investigate. The abilit...

Nanoparticle Characterisation for Drug Delivery Systems - April 2010

The use of nanoparticles within drug delivery is a growing area of research with wide ranging implications and is one of the major focuses of Professor Wim Jiskoot’s group at Leiden University....

Determination of Silver in Ice Cream - Food Monitoring with Direct Solid Samplin... - March 2010

The bactericidal effect of silver has been known for a long time. As early as the 19th century, physicians used silver to treat wounds and for disinfection purposes. Its use for disinfecting drinking...

Fluorescence Imaging of Cancer in Live Animals: Time to Get Excited? - March 2010

Without question, modern medicine is founded on the ability to perform pre-clinical research on diseases and their respective drug treatments. Many human disorders like cancer and infection have corre...

A New Chemical Method for Distinguishing Between Farmed and Wild Salmon - March 2010

Wild salmon and farmed salmon can now be distinguished from each other by a technique that examines the chemistry of their scales. Dr Clive Trueman, who is based at the National Oceanography Centre,...

A New Paradigm for Improving the Superconducting Upper Critical Magnetic Field o... - March 2010

When an electrical current flows through a normal conductor, such as copper, it encounters a resistance that transforms the current’s electrical energy into heat energy. It is therefore necessar...

Antibiotic Resistance - Nanotech to the Rescue: Nanomechanical detection of drug... - January 2010

Drug resistance has evolved from being an infrequent and manageable occurrence in the treatment of microbial infections, to a healthcare problem on a global scale. The last five years has seen a meteo...
