Differences between individual cells play a critical role in mammalian development, immune responses, and disease progression. However, tools capable of capturing, monitoring, and recovering selected cells for downstream analysis are often complex and expensive, limiting their use in many laboratories.To address this need, scientists from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Techno...

​A collaborative research team led by the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a new "process ramanomics" platform. This technology transforms industrial fermentation tanks from opaque "black boxes" into transparent, data-rich environments, enabling real-time, data-driven control of biomanufacturing. The study was pu...
