Dr. Ulrich Rant places a chip developed in his working group with DNA molecules in the measuring device. The chips with nanometer-sized DNA rods and modified nanopores can be used to detect and analyze biomolecules. This is an important application in pharmaceutical research, for example. The developments by the working group have led to a spin-off enterprise that will manufacture devices for pharmaceutical research.
