Device 'smells' seawater to discover, detect novel molecules
Promising for drug discovery in fragile ecosystems, including coral reefs
10-Nov-2023 -
Under the ocean’s surface, marine organisms are constantly releasing invisible molecules. Some of the chemical clues reveal which creatures are nearby, while others could be used someday as medications. Now, researchers in ACS Central Science report a proof-of-concept device that “sniffs” ...
