New technology aims to help industry dramatically reduce the use of chemicalsResearchers at the University of Twente are developing a new generation of process technology that could significantly reduce the need for chemicals in industrial processes. Thanks to €4 million in funding from the Dutch TKI Industry & Energy programme, UT researcher Sissi de Beer is leading an international consortium that will spend the coming years developing more sustainable technologies for applications including industrial cleaning, desalination and the separation of raw materials.Read more
New optical method follows single proteins as they shift shapeResearchers at the University of Twente have developed an optical method that follows the shape changes of a single protein in liquid, without attaching anything to it. It reads the protein’s structure from its own molecular vibrations, free of the labels or tags that other techniques rely on. The method could help researchers study how proteins respond to drugs, toxins and other biomolecules.Read more
