Researchers at the University of Cincinnati are testing a new portable computer monitoring system to predict changes in traffic flow and traffic delays in real time. The goal is to warn drivers about long delays before they reach a construction zone, giving them time to exit an interstate and use an alternate route.
Researchers at the University of Cincinnati create a sensor that can monitor medical imaging agents as they travel through the body and accumulate in various tissues. The probes, made from carbon fibers coated with polymer, detect changes in imaging agents and could lead to better heart health monitoring.
Annette McManus, a senior chemistry student at the University of Cincinnati, has developed a new forensics technique using capillary electrophoresis to separate and identify various water-based inks. The technique allows for tiny amounts of ink testing, distinguishing differences among all 14 water-based inks in her collection.
A University of Cincinnati biologist discovered a microbe that can repair its DNA with visible light, a process known as photoreactivation. This finding is significant for understanding how hyperthermophiles survive in geothermal habitats.
