Researchers design and patent graphene biosensors: The Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology is patenting biosensor chips based on graphene, graphene oxide and carbon nanotubes that will improve the analysis of biochemical reactions and accelerate th
Label-free biosensors are relatively new in biochemical and pharmaceutical laboratories, and have made work much easier. The sensors enable researchers to detect low concentrations of biologically significant molecular substances (RNA, DNA, proteins,...
Imitating synapses of the human brain could lead to smarter electronics
Connections, or synapses, between neurons are inspiring scientists to create artificial versions that could lead to smarter electronics.
Quantum Dots Have Good News about Higher Efficiency in Solar Cells
NASA's RapidScat Sees OLYMPEX Winds
A low pressure system in the Pacific Ocean south of Alaska has moved far enough eastward that it is bringing rain and strong winds to the Pacific Northwest where the OLYMPEX field campaign is under way. NASA's RapidScat instrument analyzed those...
As Earth Warms, NASA Targets ‘Other Half’ of Carbon, Climate Equation
During a noon EST media teleconference on November 13, NASA and university scientists will discuss new insights, tools and agency research into key carbon and climate change questions, as the agency ramps up its efforts to understand how Earth’s ocean...
