• Making Drinking Water Bacteria-Free
  

  Water contaminated with bacteria is a large threat to global health. A Chinese research team has described a simple new method of disinfection in the journal Angewandte Chemie. It is based on tiny biocompatible assemblies of atoms, known as quantum dots, made of silver sulfide with caps made of a si more

• Food decontamination spray deploys "billions of tiny soldiers"
  

  Researchers at McMaster University have created a powerful new weapon against bacterial contamination and infection. They have developed a way to coax bacteriophages – harmless viruses that eat bacteria – into linking together and forming microscopic beads. Those beads can safely be applied to food more

• Sniffing out carcinogens in foodstuffs
  

  Andrea Hochegger’s current research focus is the question of contamination with mineral oil hydrocarbons. “We break up complex mixtures into MOSH and MOAH fractions,” Andrea explains. These are groups of chemical compounds found in mineral oil. MOSH stands for mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons and more

• Bioburden and Biofilm Management in Pharmaceutical Operations
  

  Microbial control is a major objective for all sterile drug manufacturers, with bioburden reduction representing a significant share of risk mitigation efforts more

• Biochemical Oxygen Demand
  

  One important analysis to assess water quality is determining the BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) more

• Contamination-Free and Precise Pipetting of Blood and Plasma
  

  Blood and plasma contain proteins that can lead to foaming during pipetting. This makes it difficult to pipette accurately and without contamination more
