Scientists are searching far and wide for new tools in the battle against rising obesity rates, and lately a promising candidate has emerged from piles of purified sand. A new study has bolstered the ...

It is commonly assumed that tiny particles just go with the flow as they make their way through soil, biological tissue, and ...

In a twist on conventional wisdom, researchers have discovered that in ocean-like fluids with changing density, tiny porous particles can sink faster than larger ones, thanks to how they absorb salt.

Liquid chromatography is a pivotal analytical method in which mixtures are separated as they pass through a column containing a stationary phase. The evolution of porous particle technology—including ...

New research uncovers surprising insights into how particles sink in stratified fluids like oceans, where the density of the fluid changes with depth. In a study published in Proceedings of the ...
