Raman spectroscopy to undergo a UV transformation - New technique could help rapid detection of infecting organisms in hospitals and prove authenticity of foods such
Researchers at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth (UWA) are about to put ultra-violet Raman spectroscopy through its paces as a new technique for studying biological materials. Dr Roy Goodacre and colleagues in the Institute of Biological Sciences have been awarded a grant worth £306,291 by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research... view more... (2002-03-01)
MR spectroscopy significantly reduces need for breast biopsy
In a study featured in the June issue of Radiology, researchers found that imaging suspicious breast lesions with magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy reduced the need for biopsy by 58 percent. view more (2006-05-30)
Scientists find safer ways to detect uranium minerals
The threat of 'dirty' bombs and plans to use nuclear power as an energy source have driven Queensland University of Technology scientists to discover a new, safer way of detecting radioative contamination in the ground. view more (2006-11-22)
Researchers demonstrate single molecule absorption spectroscopy
A powerful new tool for probing molecular structure on surfaces has been developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. view more (2005-12-21)
Improved technique determines structure in membrane proteins
Understanding the form and function of certain proteins in the human body is becoming faster and easier, thanks to the work of researchers at the University of Illinois. view more (2008-08-18)
New coil to make magnetic resonance (MR) imaging easier
Oxford University researchers have devised a novel coil design for magnetic resonance (MR) application, devised specifically for deep organ MR where sensitive imaging and spectroscopy have been previously difficult. Deep organ magnetic resonance requires maximised sensitivity and magnetic field homogeneity over a relatively large field of view... view more... (2003-01-24)
Protein structure determined in living cells
The function of a protein is determined both by its structure and by its interaction partners in the cell. Until now, proteins had to be isolated for analyzing them. view more (2009-03-05)
Inside rocks, implications for finding life on Mars
If a future space mission to Mars brings rocks back to Earth, Schopf said the techniques he has used, called confocal laser scanning microscopy and Raman spectroscopy, could enable scientists to look at microscopic fossils inside the rocks to search for signs of life, such as organic cell walls. view more (2006-02-01)
Laser blasts will reveal structures and dynamics of molecules in the fastest events in nature
A new £2 million Research Centre at the University of York will provide unprecedented information on how molecules change, helping scientists understand the structure and dynamics of liquids, proteins and even our DNA. The York Centre for Laser Spectroscopy and Photochemistry opened today (29 October 2003), will use ultra-short laser light... view more... (2003-10-27)

How do the choline compounds change when apoptosis occurs?
Apoptosis is a programmed, active, highly selective mechanism of cell death. Abnormal regulation of apoptosis can lead to disorders such as cancer. The field of apoptosis research has undergone an explosion of new knowledge over the past decade. view more (2008-09-24)
Gold nanostars outshine the competition
Novel nanoparticles being tested at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have researchers seeing stars. In a recent paper, NIST scientists used surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to demonstrate that gold nanostars exhibit optical qualities that make them superior for chemical and biological sensing and imaging. view more (2008-10-16)
New Bacteria Test Could Improve Quality of Fruit and Vegetable Juice
Increasingly, consumer products, especially food and beverage products, are being scrutinized for better quality. view more (2007-05-10)
Raman Effect Brings Nano up to Size : Raman/Rayleigh Imaging of Nanosized Materials
Materials made with (or from) nanophases received considerable attention in the last few years but their characterisation is not easy. Unique properties (conductivity, diffusion, reactivity, sintering, mechanical strength….) have been reported for nanostructured materials, all of which result from the interfacial characteristics. Raman... view more... (2003-06-08)
New JILA technique reveals hidden properties of ultracold atomic gases
Physicists at JILA, a joint institute of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Colorado at Boulder, have demonstrated a powerful new technique that reveals hidden properties of ultracold atomic gases. view more (2008-08-07)
Creating the astro-comb to locate Earth-like planets
Thanks to the ability of astronomers to detect the presence of extrasolar planets orbiting distant stars, scientists today are able to examine hundreds of solar systems. view more (2009-05-08)
Nanoscopic changes to pancreatic cells reveal cancer
A team of researchers in Chicago has developed a way to examine cell biopsies and detect never-before-seen signs of early-stage pancreatic cancer, according to a new paper in the Optical Society (OSA) journal Optics Letters. view more (2009-02-13)
