With a growing number of exosome-based delivery vehicles advancing into the clinic for therapeutics and vaccines, more effective isolation and separation strategies are needed. Finnish researchers ...

A well-known technique for separating polymers, such as proteins, has been adjusted for analysis of mRNA-lipid nanoparticle (LNP) vaccines. Multidetector Field Flow Fractionation (MD-FFF) has been in ...

Most bioparticles, such as red blood cells and bacteria, are non-spherical in shape. However, conventional microfluidic separation devices are designed for spherical particles. This poses a challenge ...

Current approaches to silver recovery from end-of-life PV modules are dominated by acid leaching. While effective, the ...

Up until a few short decades ago when ultrasound imagery became sharp enough to reveal the relevant details, parents had to wait for the arrival of a new family member to learn its gender. Could a day ...

Magnetic bead separation is a fast, effective, and clean process that scientists use as an alternative to filtration and centrifugation techniques for separation. Magnetic beads and particles can be ...

Researchers are suggesting seven energy-intensive separation processes they believe should be the top targets for research into low-energy purification technologies. Beyond cutting energy use, ...

Separation techniques and principles that were used by early gold prospectors are still used today in the mining industry. Some of these methods, transferred to the recycling industry, have ...

Researchers have developed a new chemical separation method that is vastly more efficient than conventional processes, opening the door to faster discovery of new elements, easier nuclear fuel ...
