(Natural News) A group of Australian researchers has developed a new and fast method of detecting a dangerous toxin from pesticides and chemical weapons. The study, published in the journal ACS Nano, explains how perovskite nanocrystals, which were being used to develop new solar panels, can change color upon detecting methyl iodide. Methyl iodide, also known as iodomethane, is […]

(Natural News) In what is a unique application of new green technology, Australian researchers have figured out how to adapt a component from solar cells to develop a light-based detection system for deadly toxins. According to them, the system they’ve designed can be used to detect the presence of chemical warfare agents and pesticides. While the former have been […]
