In a significant advancement for lab-on-chip technology, IBEC researchers in the frame of the European project BLOC, have demonstrated the first integration of a benchtop nuclear magnetic resonance ...

When molecules fall apart, their electric charge doesn't stay put—it rearranges as bonds stretch and break. An international team of scientists has now tracked these ultrafast changes in the small ...

Quantum mechanical effects are known to be easily disrupted by disturbances from the surrounding environment, commonly referred to as noise. To minimize these disturbances, physicists often study ...

While direct Raman detection without this physical offset yields a spectrum rich in the top layer information, an offset geometry collects the detectable Raman signal stimulated in nearly areas, ...

Learn how NIRS allows for the rapid measurement of caffeine and moisture in roasted coffee beans, helping roasters optimize ...

FTIR microscopy offers a strong method for detecting and characterizing contaminants, crucial for ensuring product safety and ...

Drosophila mojavensis, and propose that sleep at one stage of an animal's life might anticipate needs at a future stage. The results fit well with this model, but are correlative in nature. The work ...
