Ultrasensitive testing platform previously applied to COVID-19 can now detect lead in water Rapid test can be performed in minutes Versatile platform can be generalized for human health and ...

What steps can be taken to reduce food contamination and foodborne illnesses? This is what an upcoming study funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation hopes to address as a team of researchers ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Ensuring the safety of drinking water, food supplies, and environmental samples depends on detecting bacterial contamination before it causes harm. Traditional microbiological ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) could help biopharmaceutical manufacturers detect contamination in cell cultures sooner than conventional approaches, thereby helping to reduce waste and batch losses. The ...

The technology detects unique volatile organic compounds each mold species emits, creating distinct “odor signatures” the ...

A sterility test for cell therapy products returns yes/no results within 30 minutes for a range of microbial contaminants. Such detection speed is the result of combining machine learning (ML) and ...

Effective contaminant monitoring in hydraulic fluids is essential for system performance and longevity. Traditional methods like light obscuration (ISO 11171) measure particle size but lack shape ...

Researchers and therapeutic manufacturers have long relied on classical microbiological methods to check their samples and surfaces for microbial contamination, primarily using lengthy ...

This is the first novel technology that utilises machine learning to analyse unique ultraviolet light “fingerprints” on cell cultures to quickly identify presence of contamination Only requiring a ...

Mycoplasma contamination remains a persistent challenge in cell culture laboratories globally. These minute, wall-less prokaryotes can stealthily infiltrate cultures by bypassing standard filtration ...
