30-Apr-2025
A research team from the University of Cologne has secured 1.1 million euros for the PoLightFilters start-up project from the EXIST-FT funding programme of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK). With the development of a fundamentally novel technology for light ...
TU Graz and start-up BRAVE Analytics have developed a method for detecting nanoplastics in liquids and determining their composition
16-Apr-2025
Microplastics and the much smaller nanoplastics enter the human body in various ways, for example through food or the air we breathe. A large proportion is excreted, but a certain amount remains in organs, blood and other body fluids. In the FFG bridge project Nano-VISION, which was launched two ...
