  • New sealed encoders for metrology

    The linear encoders are ideal for high-end metrology on or off the shop floor.

  • Fiber optic imaging probe to advance nanoscale diagnostics

    A compact ultrasonic imaging tool can be deployed on the tip of a single optical fiber to visualize cell abnormalities in 3D within the body.

  • E-nose sniffs out cancer

    A non-invasive diagnostic system combines artificial intelligence and machine learning to detect cancer.

  • Sensor system takes temperature trends in Greenland glacier

    The fiber optic cable-based method provides a clearer picture of changes in the world's second largest ice sheet.

  • Video: Speeding medical diagnostics with 3D-printed devices

    Advanced diagnostic assays, such as the classic pregnancy and COVID-19 self-tests, can be produced quickly and at low cost.

  • Coffee and bees and dogs, oh my! A recap of unusual COVID-19 tests

    A recap of unusual methods developed to diagnose COVID-19.

  • A one-second COVID-19 test

    The electrochemical device uses disposable test strips and a reusable semiconductor transistor platform.

  • Onsite treatment approach removes toxins from wastewater

    A filtration system has been designed to combat the release of 1,4-dioxane from onsite wastewater treatment systems to groundwater

  • Bacteria detection device could make cleaner food processing plants

    During food production, routine cleaning and surface sanitation are key to preventing microbial contamination in end food products. But the human eye can only do so much to determine if a surface is clean enough.

  • Reduced risk of hydrogen sparking with sensitive optical leak detector

    The device delivers the fastest response ever reported at the critical hydrogen concentration required for leak detection.

  • Capturing coronavirus with nanotraps

    Nanoparticles trap SARS-CoV-2 viruses inside the body and use the body’s immune system to inactivate them.

  • Video: Diagnostic quickly detects COVID variants

    The assay returns results in 30 minutes and could be useful for rapid testing performed by non-specialists.

  • Video: Mini-microscope peers at brain activity

    The instrument was tested with mice, which have similar brain structures and connectivity properties as humans.

  • Watch how AI, microfluidics combine to detect vascular diseases

    The system could be used to assess diseases characterized by the abnormal condition of blood vessels.

  • Watch: Cystic fibrosis diagnosis by skin-worn sticker

    The wearable device changes color to detect early disease markers in newborns’ sweat.

  • Scientists determine the cause of failure in lithium-metal batteries

    The primary cause: liquid electrolyte depletion.

  • Faster observation of fluctuations in ‘stickiness' improves pharmaceuticals manufacture

    Faster measurement of viscosity will benefit disease diagnostics and pharmaceutical testing.

  • Tiny earthquakes in Antarctica measured with fiber optic cable

    Microseismic events are measured with distributed acoustic sensing methods.

  • Solutions for your precise temperature and humidity applications
