The risk of exposure to covid-19 virus particles increases the closer you are to a patient, the higher virus levels of the patient, and if ventilation is inadequate. Measurements of viruses in the hospital air by researchers at Lund University provide new knowledge on how best to adapt care to reduce the risk of infection. The international guidelines that currently exist in healthcare need revisi

A research group at Lund University has succeeded in creating a hydrogen-producing system using an iron complex as a light-absorbing dye. The new discovery could be an important piece of the puzzle for large-scale, environmentally friendly hydrogen production in the future. Hydrogen is a highly efficient energy carrier that can be used to transport, store and provide energy. The gas, which consist

We all know that when it burns, it smokes. But what do we really know about the contents of that smoke and how it is affected by different fire processes? Not only that, but how do these smoke particles affect the emergency personnel who are first on the scene? Researchers at NanoLund and LTH, in a unique experiment with the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB), have conducted measurements to

A hot topic among cancer researchers is vesicles, nanoparticles that flow in our veins in their billions and which have proven to hold information on the health status of the body. Now the hope is to be able to capture and decode the messages in the vesicles via a standard blood test.
