Nerve Agent Detection Using Enzyme-Coated Nanowires

Lead Institution

Pennsylvania State University

Principal Investigator

Seong Kim

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

We propose a research program to prepare, characterize, and apply enzyme-coated nanowires to the detection of nerve agents. The substrate specificity of enzymatic reactions renders a great potential…

Jungbae Kim

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

Enzymes are useful biocatalysts of nanometer scale that regulate the chemistry of cells and organisms. The specificity of enzymes promises great improvements in various applications such as chemical…

Structural Investigation of Crystalline Cellulose in Plant Cell Walls Using High-Resolution Non-linear Spectroscopy and Microscopy

Lead Institution

Pennsylvania State University

Principal Investigator

Seong Kim

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

Plants use much of the carbon and solar energy captured during photosynthesis to produce cell walls, which are a valuable resource of renewable energy. Plant cell walls are processed for use as…
