Until now it wasn’t possible to see fingerprints after the print itself has been removed, say in the instance of a fired bullet. But with a new technique developed by Alex Goddard and a team of scientists from the University of Leicester, it may...

Cancer cells have been of much interest to the researchers. Various studies have been conducted on them. The latest research used nanotechnology to determine which cancerous cell is softer. A research team from the UCLA conducted this research....

The idea that measuring nanomechanical oscillations, that of the tiny vibrating silicon strips, only a few hundred atoms thick is not that easy, is no more true. Researchers at the Cornell University have designed a solution - defining as...

Hand held sensing devices are expected to see more development as researchers at the Duke University have developed a new molecular fishing technique which would bring all the change. Handheld devices can safely measurer concentrations of almost...

With the aid a tiny device, a scientist has pumped up the sounds made by tiny proteins zipping around inside a yeast cell. This discovery is helping to develop a new tool that may allow doctors to detect diseases like cancer. It is by listening to...
