While researching dolphins, SU researchers discover possible new method to improve pharmaceuticals

In the human body, crystals – made of things such as calcium or urea – form masses that can cause pain and serious health conditions, such as gout. Researchers from the Xiaodong Zou group reported a new method to control the growth of ammonium urate crystals - the substance known to cause kidney stones in dolphins.

High-throughput phase elucidation using SerialRED: new opportunities for rapid materials development

Researchers at Stockholm University and Sinopec Shanghai Research Institute of Petrochemical Technology have demonstrated the high-throughput phase elucidation of highly complex polycrystalline zeolite materials using the automated serial rotation electron diffraction (SerialRED) method. Using SerialRED, five zeolite phases have been identified from a highly complex synthesized mixture.
