New details of the composition and structure of a needlelike protein complex on the surface of certain bacteria may help scientists develop new strategies to thwart infection.
Spiderman would definitely have an easier time of things with this spider silk - for example, if he had to stop a getaway car moving off at 100 kilometres per hour. A five-millimetre-thick thread would do the job from a distance of 20 metres - assuming it had been treated by a team of researchers from the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics.
Superconductivity is caused by electrons forming pairs in particular types of materials. This pairing makes the electrons insensitive to the perturbations in their pathway and leads to the disappearance of any electrical resistance.
ApNano Materials, Inc., a cleantech company and provider of nanotechnology-based products, today announced that new test conducted at the FZG Gear Research Centre of the Technical University of Munich, Germany, clearly shows that ApNano Material's nanotechnology-based lubricant NanoLub significantly decreases damaging wear pits on gear teeth.
The Institute of Photonics and Optical Science (IPOS), the newest institute in the University of Sydney and the only one of its kind in Australia, launched this week with a one-day symposium The Photonic Universe - Faster, Further, Smarter.
Cambridge Research + Instrumentation, Inc. (CRi) introduced the Vectra™ Intelligent Slide Analysis System at the 100th Annual Meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) in Denver. The Vectra sys...
Carl Zeiss is setting a new performance standard for entry-level confocal microscopy with the introduction of the LSM 700 Laser Scanning Microscope, which uses proven modules from the world's largest range of fluorescence and laser scanning microscope systems to offer radical flexibility in both application and system structure.
When photographers zoom in on an object to see it better, they lose the wide-angle perspective -- they are forced to trade off "big picture" context for detail. But now an imaging method developed by Princeton researchers could lead to lenses that show all parts of the scene at once in the same high detail.
Zeiss has overcome the challenges of imaging deep inside living tissues with the launch of the LSM 7 MP, a purpose-built multiphoton laser scanning microscope that, for the first time, incorporates two separate scanners.
In a recent publication in Nature Photonics, a joint team of researchers at CIC nanoGUNE, Donostia International Physics Center DIPC, Centro de Física de Materiales of CSIC/UPV-EHU in San Sebastian (Spain), Harvard University (USA) and the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry in Munich (Germany) reports an innovative method for controlling light on the nanoscale by adopting tuning concepts from radio-frequency technology.
