Rapid screening of drug-resistent bacteria
A research team led by scientists at Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) has developed a novel cell sensor with a barcode-like micro-channel structure that enables rapid and low-cost screening of drug-resistant bacteria.
Smart wound dressings with healing sensors
Researchers have developed smart wound dressings with built-in nanosensors that glow to alert patients when a wound is not healing properly.
AI may be able to ID drug-resistant superbugs
Scientists have shown that different strains of the same bacterial pathogen can be distinguished by a machine learning analysis of their growth dynamics alone.
An army of microrobots can wipe out dental plaque
Researchers developed a microscopic robotic cleaning crew. With two types of robotic systems the scientists showed that robots with catalytic activity could ably destroy biofilms.
Can tiny robots change the fight against tuberculosis?
A Brock University research team has created a microscopic robot that has the potential to identify drug resistance to tuberculosis faster than conventional tests.
