Mystery mechanism in small peptide shows big promise for fighting antibiotic-resistance bacteria | Neutron Science at ORNL Since the advent of penicillin more than 90 years ago, antibiotic drugs have saved countless lives by preventing and treating bacterial infections. However, bacteria are rapidly developing new ways to resist antibiotics, making some of modern medicine’s most powerful drugs less effective against m...

ORNL’s Second Target Station Meets New Design Milestones

A nice new tool to try

DENSS-Multiple: A Structure Reconstruction Method using Multiple Contrast Variation of Small-Angle Neutron Scattering Based on the DENSS Algorithm Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) provides easily manipulable neutron contrast variation that has been widely exploited to study the structure and function of biological macromolecules and their complex in solution. Here, we developed a method called DENSS-Multiple based on the DENSS (DENsity fr...

Reshaping the World of Research Through Remote Experimentation | Neutron Science at ORNL We all remember the impact of stay-at-home-orders on our everyday lives in spring 2020. However, it was not only restaurants, salons, flower shops, and bookstores that had to close their doors. National user research facilities shut down most operations, closing the doors to thousands of visiting sc...
