LCDs as a molecular magnifying glass
Scientist has developed a technique for making LCDs (liquid crystal displays) without the need for clean rooms (environments under stringent control standards of cleanliness, comparable to operating rooms). The technique is simpler and cheaper than methods used today. The research has further shown that these LCDs can be used to make DNA visible to the [...]
