Weekly Genetics Quote #3: Nanoporous Materials

by Hsien Hsien Lei, PhD on December 15th, 2005

Sorry, almost forgot this week’s quote! I’m feeling so miserable from my cold that even this bit of fun got forgotten.

This week’s genetics quote is from Nanoporous Materials: Science and Engineering by GQ Lu, XS Zhao:

The most supervising result of the work is that the DNA molecules do not thread meekly through these nanopores like a noodle of spaghetti that one sucks up, but instead come through the pores in several configurations. This is an important breakthrough towards DNA sequencing, demonstrating the potential applications of nanoporous materials in bioengineering.
