Unique Particle Characterisation Technique May Help Predict Pre-Eclampsia

NanoSight's
unique particle by particle technology is showing promise at detecting nanoparticles
in blood that may prove to be predictors for pre-eclampsia. Professor of Reproductive
Sciences, Ian Sargent, of the University of Oxford is leading a team looking
at prediction and early diagnosis of pre-eclampsia.

New Method to Electrically Characterize Individual Carbon Nanotubes

A single batch of carbon nanotubes -- molecular carbon cylinders that may one day revolutionize electronics engineering -- often includes more than 100 types of tubes, each with different optical and electrical properties. Individual electrical measurements of the molecules typically require such slow and expensive methods as electron-beam lithography.
