New biosensor could save lives by giving faster medical analysis.
Every day accident and emergency units have to treat patients who have taken some sort of drug overdose. To give treatment doctors need to know what the patient has taken. The circumstances can make often this difficult to ascertain quickly. Researchers are developing a new kind of biosensor, which can determine in minutes if a patient's blood... view more...

NIST micro sensor and micro fridge make cool pair
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have combined two tiny but powerful NIST inventions on a single microchip, a cryogenic sensor and a microrefrigerator. The combination offers the possibility of cheaper, simpler and faster precision analysis of materials such as semiconductors and stardust. view more (2008-04-16)
Measuring the health of the sea
Last summer Donostia City Council in the Basque Country installed a special buoy in the city's Concha Bay for the first time. The apparatus carried out analyses of the water quality in order to verify its suitability for bathing. This buoy was anchored at the bottom of the sea, halfway between the Santa Clara islet and the Concha and Ondarreta... view more... (2003-07-28)
