Researchers unveil chip to quickly monitor antibiotics in water
Scientists have developed a simple TMP detection device for in-situ monitoring of contaminated wastewater using a selenite-rich lanthanum hydroxide electrode and a microfluidic channel in a polyimide filter.

In Patagonia, more snow could prevent glaciers from melting, but only if greenhouse gas emissions are quickly curbed.
Glacier front in southern Patagonia. Credit: Henning Åkesson In an era of declining glaciers, southern Patagonia has managed to retain an astonishing amount of ice. But a new study published in Scientific Reports by INSTAAR postdoctoral researcher Matthias Troch suggests that this protective effect may soon reach its limit. Before making their predictions, Troch and his collaborators looked back. They…
