Raman spectroscopy is an analytical method capable of detecting various microorganisms and small particles. Here, we used 25–1000 nm polystyrene particles in aqueous suspensions, which are comparable in size to viral particles and viral aggregates, to determine the limit of detection (LOD) of a confocal Raman microscope. We collected Raman spectra using a 785 nm wavelength laser with a power of 300 mW and a 10 s exposure time with a 5× objective lens.

The Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine has a longstanding commitment to One Health research and education. So it was natural for the college to agree to participate in a film festival orchestrated by an organization it is a member of called the Clinical and Translational Science Award One Health Alliance, or COHA.

A “lab‐to‐fab” transition is described that enables the semiautomated production of thin‐film potentiometric pH electrodes, designed for use in sterile single‐use bioreactors. Manual methods of materials deposition and film casting are replaced with spray coating on a moving web and the production of membranes with a programmable dispenser operating at constant rates.

When an eight-year-old shepherd-mix dog named Lucy was injured after tragically getting struck by a car, co-parents Matt and Gretchen Walker were told that she would likely never walk again. That was over three years ago, in May of 2021. The Walkers, of Brookston, Indiana, had raised Lucy since she was a puppy, and knew that her life was nothing short of worth fighting for. “If she was willing to live, I was willing to do whatever it took,” Matt said as he recounted the story recently.
