UK food manufacturers have been urged to recognise the massive potential of nanotechnology in creating healthier foods. Tiny nano particles can deliver a more rapid hit of taste, thus enabling ingredients such as fat and salt to be reduced in recipes, which also reduces the cost of ingredients, Barry Park, theme manager at nanotechnology promotion body Nanotechnology Knowledge Transfer Network ...

Nano-FTIR advances nanoscale analytical chemistry
Nano-FTIR can be applied for the chemical identification of nanoscale sample contaminations. This figure shows AFM images of a PMMA film on a Si surface. While the AFM phase contrast indicates the presence of a 100 nm size contamination, the determination of its chemical identity remains elusive from these images. Using nano-FTIR to record a local infrared spectrum in the ... Read More »
