Our team's newest publication, out now in ACS Agricultural Science & Technology, details our efforts to create colorimetric sensors for proline, a common indicator of stress in plants, based on a mechanism of color formation found in flowers! 🌺@Northeastern @NU_ChemE

Check out our new paper on using whole bacteria and protein nanofibers to make biodegradable bioplastics with tunable properties. @M_B_Avinash did an amazing job conceiving and developing this idea.

Had a great time at the 2024 Bioanalytical Sensors GRC. Awesome week of science and networking organized by @Charles_Mace. Looking forward to serving as Vice Chair with @afurst1 in 2026!

Totally missed this post! So excited to share the collaboration between our lab and Clear Scientific to develop a contact-free assay to determine if unknown powders contain fentanyl. We hope this test helps improve the safety of first responders.
A colorimetric displacement assay enables contactless detection of fentanyl, an opioid with high risk, in liquid or solid samples. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
Congratulations to Lilly, Josie, and Jill for presenting great work at @Northeastern’s RISE Expo last week!
So cool to see our work featured as a Top Ten Ocean Story in @SmithsonianMag! @Northeastern

A new smart paint blends the worlds of art and science 🎨🔬
Using a natural pigment that changes color when exposed to sunlight, scientists (@Daniel_Wilson92 @Northeastern) created "living exhibits" and temporary designs.

Paint that can change colors? The skin of an #octopus holds the key, @Northeastern researchers say. bit.ly/3QdLULH

This 🐶 was created by shielding the design from sunlight with painter's tape.
Over 72h the irradiated background oxidizes back to its original yellow state, and the image vanishes @Daniel_Wilson92 @leiladeravi

Thrilled to share our team's work, out now in Advanced Science. We demonstrate paints prepared with bioinspired colorants that perform reversible, redox-driven color changes in response to sunlight! @leiladeravi @advscinews @NU_ChemE @NortheasternCOE onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

What's a low-cost sensor?
“…labor cost was 5 – 10 x greater than the cost of goods, such that one of the main points for sensors to be cheap is not cost of goods, in my opinion, but ease of use & ease or scalability of preparation & fabrication” @Masson_Chem @ACS_Sensors
