In daylight, the experimental silkworms appeared pink, but under ultraviolet light, they had a bright red glow. Liu et.al., 2022 In a new study, silkworms were fed nanoscale crystals called quantum ...

Researchers in cell biology, pathology, clinical diagnostics, and drug discovery seek a deeper understanding of intracellular communication and signal networking. Figuring out the complex interactions ...

Graphene has a wide range of applications, but due to its zero-band gap property, low dispersibility in water and low spectral absorption, it cannot be used in many areas, including optoelectronics, ...

The project: Labeling as many as six proteins simultaneously to track protein dynamics during signal transduction in live cells. The problem: Lidke chooses quantum dots (Invitrogen) over dyes "mainly ...

In a new paper, University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering researchers, including Asst. Prof. Peter Maurer (left) and first author and PhD candidate Uri Zvi (right), and their ...

Why it matters: Manufacturers have included quantum dots in LED displays for a while now, but they're working on screens that exclusively use them. The technology could become efficient and cheap ...

Quantum science, cellular biology and high-def TVs come together in new biosensors. (Nanowerk News) Putting hypersensitive quantum sensors in a living cell is a promising path for tracking cell growth ...
