51³Ô¹ÏÍø Researchers Use Liquid Crystal to Control Bacteria Movement
A liquid crystal research group at 51³Ô¹ÏÍø led by Oleg Lavrentovich, Ph.D., is knocking on the doors of the biomedical industry with its current project. The recent publication of research explains a technique of controlling bacteria movement with liquid crystal structures that could have a potential impact in many areas of research and medical care.
51³Ô¹ÏÍø Researchers Challenge the Growing Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Problem With New Compound
“The pessimistic estimate is that by 2050, antibiotics could be obsolete,'' said Songping Huang, Ph.D., professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry in the College of Arts and Sciences. Huang and his 51³Ô¹ÏÍø team, including Min-Ho Kim, Ph.D., associate professor in the Department of Biological Sciences, are working on closing that chasm with the development of new antimicrobials.
