Black carbon is up to 25 times more hazardous to human health than other airborne particles of a similar size. Standard sensors are expensive and burdensome, resulting in sparse coverage in regions ...

The state of Tennessee is now giving away free carbon monoxide (CO) detectors. The Tennessee Department of Commerce & ...

NEC has developed an uncooled IR image sensor that incorporates high-purity semiconducting carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the IR detection area. The company claims the new sensor achieves more than three ...

Oh you need a sensor? Here, let me sketch you one real fast. This may soon be the conversation that manufacturers everywhere will be having with clients, thanks to a group of ambitious chemists at MIT ...

Three cheap hygroscopic salt solutions on carbon nanotube sensors distinguish nine toxic gases, including warfare agents, without engineered receptor molecules.

EU-funded researchers are developing a new generation of ocean sensors able to monitor previously hard-to-reach areas, promising clearer insight into how marine ecosystems are responding to climate ...

It’s a colorless and odorless gas created when natural fuels burn incompletely due to low oxygen amounts. Carbon monoxide can ...

Moline firefighters responded to carbon monoxide in a home Wednesday after a car ran in an attached garage. Officials warn ...

Researchers developed single-wall carbon nanotube sensors for detecting low hormone levels, paving the way for advanced, continuous health monitoring. Researchers at the University of Turku, Finland, ...

Black carbon is the most dangerous air pollutant you’ve never heard of. Its two main sources, diesel exhaust and wood smoke from wildfires and household heating, produce ultrafine air particles that ...
