Five most common pain points when measuring pH
Discover best practices for accurately performing pH measurements.
How to bring structured illumination to a standard microscope
Convert a conventional optical microscope into a high-resolution structured illumination microscopy instrument by following these open-source guidelines.
Study: Far-UVC light eliminates airborne virus in an occupied room
Unlike conventional germicidal UVC light — which kills viruses and bacteria but can only typically be used in unoccupied rooms because direct exposure to it can potentially harm skin and eyes — far-UVC light can be used in occupied spaces.
The chemicals contaminating European streams
The extent of anthropogenic chemical contamination in European riverine systems has been gauged through analysis of 445 samples from 22 watercourses.
Look out below: The US east coast is steadily subsiding
The rate of subsidence in some areas exceeds that of global sea level rise, approaching 5 mm/year.
Grid compliance test bench for wind turbines
A new power hardware-in-the-loop test bench for grid compliance testing of power electric drivetrains eliminates the need for field trials.
Comparing thermocouples versus RTD
Temperature measurement is very crucial to the desirable operation of several processes across different engineering industries today.
Choosing the right pH meter: Key considerations for accurate and reliable measurements
Consider these factors in selecting the optimal pH meter for a specific application.
AI expedites catalysis lab research

Why accurate pH and conductivity measurements are critical for battery manufacturing
Explore how the performance and longevity of a battery are heavily dependent on one critical parameter — pH level.
Using a centering microscope for precise workpiece location
Centering microscopes are toolmaker set-up instruments that precisely locate work on a milling machine, lathe, electrical discharge machine, drill and other machine tools as well as coordinate measuring machines for part inspection.
New nanopipette designed to poke into cancer cells
The nanopipette, which is controlled via robotic software, features two nanoscopic needles to enable the simultaneous sample injection and extraction from the cell.
Human heart-on-a-chip advances drug and disease modeling
The device is intended to overcome the limitations of animal-based trials with a tool that more accurately replicates interactions of cells within the heart.
How Do Light Meters Work?
Lux meters, sometimes called light meters, measure the intensity of illumination as distinguished by the human eye.
