Detection of harmful pathogens in food isn’t always as precise and accurate as it should be to ensure public health. But now, researchers have designed and 3D-printed a microfluidic chip sensor that is already proving more effective than conventional methods.
Development of a random-access wide-field mesoscope that can image samples of various shapes, sizes, and orientations in vivo could enhance biodynamics research in areas such as neuroscience and immunology.
Once a strictly theoretical concept, researchers have developed a photonic topological insulator that prevents photons from scattering throughout a material. They’ve also demonstrated topological protected edge states at room temperature, which shows great promise for quantum research.
