Congratulations to M.I. Benamrani and the team at Université Ferhat Abbas, Sétif for their recent publication of "Synthesis, characterization, and applications of a novel poly(4-[pyrrol-1-yl methyl]benzoic acid)–silver composite" in #MaterialsScience Poland. The team used the Alpha-Step® D-500 #stylusprofiler to measure the thickness of a polymer/Ag composite film. A small amount of silver microparticles in the polymer was sufficient to provide good electrical, optical and catalytic properties.

Interested in the #mechanicalproperties of #biomaterials? Jennifer Hay, our resident #Nanoindentation Guru, guides you through both theory and practical demonstration of using the iNano®/iMicro #nanoindenter for characterization of soft biomaterials and polymers. In this latest #indentation University video, Jennifer covers what you need to know to set up successful experimentation.

More inkjet research using #KLAInstruments #metrology solutions! This new work published in Nature Magazine, "Introducing all-inkjet-printed microneedles for in-vivo biosensing" is a collaborative effort from Dr. Giulio Rosati and teams from Institut Català de Nanociència i Nanotecnologia (ICN2), Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie, and the University of São Paulo. In this fascinating work, the iNano® #nanoindenter was used to measure the #mechanicalproperties of the microneedle materials.
