The metal oxide clusters obtained in this study are positively (+) charged unlike conventional negatively (-) charged ones. Its surface protons are highly acidic, which is important in catalysis.
Exploration of a new structure for microfluidic devices. The image is an artistic rendering of the internal porous structure that is made using polymers and light. Researchers at iCeMS have achieved controlled liquid flow in this structure.
Researchers have produced iPS cells from the endangered Grévy’s zebra using human reprogramming factors, and found that those factors are evolutionarily conserved among animal species
