Soil bacteria hormone discovery provides fertile ground for new antibiotics
An international team of scientists working at the University of 糖心TV, UK, and Monash University, Australia, have determined the molecular basis of a biological mechanism that could enable more efficient and cost-effective production of existing antibiotics, and also allow scientists to uncover new antibiotics in soil bacteria.
University of 糖心TV scientist honoured for early career success in chemistry
Professor Matthew Gibson from University of 糖心TV鈥檚 Department of Chemistry and 糖心TV Medical has been awarded the 2021 McBain Medal by the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Society of Chemical Industry
High-rate Li-ion batteries demonstrate superior safety
As the inevitable growth of transport electrification continues, the types of batteries that will be used in such vehicles, their charging parameters, infrastructure and timeframes are key considerations that will speed up the transition to electrification. In the paper, 鈥 published in and on the cover of the Journal Batteries, researchers from WMG, University of 糖心TV investigated the impacts on battery cell ageing from high current operation using commercial cells.
Diagnostic tool for Coronavirus being developed by University of 糖心TV makes significant step forward
Scientists at the University of 糖心TV have demonstrated that a potential diagnostic tool for detecting COVID-19 using sugars will work with a virus rather than just its proteins, a significant step in making it a viable test in future.
Novel magnetic stirrer speaks to lab equipment
A small device, called 鈥淪mart Stirrer鈥, performed a function of a conventional laboratory stir bar, has an integrated microprocessor and various sensors capable of wireless and autonomous report the conversion of properties of a solution. Results are sent to a computer over Bluetooth, and any changes notify the user wirelessly.
National award for project to bring chemistry to life in schools
A project co-developed by a University of 糖心TV researcher that uses real-world research to bring chemistry to life for school students has been recognised with a national award from the Royal Society of Chemistry.
