Nat. Commun.: Three RESOLV groups, led by Prof. S. Kruss, Prof. M. Havenith, and Prof. C. Herrmann, published their results about how nanotubes can serve as biosensors. They change their fluorescence when they bind to certain molecules. Until now, it was unclear why. Researchers have gained new insights into the cause of the fluorescence.
