The capabilities of the OPMI® PENTERO® 800 surgical microscopes from ZEISS for reconstructive surgery have been enhanced by the introduction of the INFRARED 800 module.
Inspired by the unique design of a household gadget, a team of scientists have developed bottle-brush nanotags, which can accommodate countless number of fluorophores to facilitate improved cellular identification and analysis. The study has been published in ACS Central Science.
A team of researchers have developed a flexible, low-cost, transparent thermal sensor device using graphene that could be used for thermal imaging applications.
A new drug-device combination has been developed by the scientists at the New England Center for Stroke Research at UMass Medical School and the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University for the treatment of potentially fatal blood clots in stroke patients.
A unique plasma implant coating, DentaPlas, has been developed that uses silver nanoparticles to prevent infection of dental implants. The dentaplas technology is as robust as conventional implacts yet has a greater lifetime.

The graphene industry is at a crossroads for most small and medium companies, which are hoping to start bringing in revenue after years of investment. Unlike government and university research groups, medium sized companies cannot afford to take the long road.
A team of engineers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison have developed miniature lenses with a wide range of vision inspired by the multi-faceted eyes of insects. For the first time ever, flexible, Fresnel zone plate microlenses featuring a large field of view have been developed based on this novel approach.
A graphene-based gas sensor has been developed. The sensor uses boron-doped graphene to detect toxic gases such as ammonia and nitrogen oxides with upto 10,000 times more sensitivity than current sensors.

The National Institutes of Health reports that of the estimated 1,658,370 new cases of cancer that will be diagnosed this year, nearly half of those people will lose their battle against the disease.
Graphene has been majorly used to increase flexibility, transparency, and conductivity of electronics application and gradually evolved its reach to other application areas. The demand for graphene is high as it has excellent conductivity, tensile strength, transparency, and thermal stability. Graphene is being used as the preferred substitute for silicon and other incumbent materials by major manufacturers and suppliers globally.
