Sarah Guerin, lead author of paper published in Nature, performing characterisation[/caption]MOSAIC Group researchers have successfully modelled, grown and measured piezoelectric properties in the biomolecule glycine. Piezoelectricity is the generation of an electric charge in a material when stressed or deformed.…
A team of MOSAIC Group scientists have for the first time, discovered piezoelectricity in the globular protein, lysozyme. Lysozyme is a protein which is found in egg whites, tears, and the saliva and milk of mammals. The direct piezoelectric effect…
