More energy-efficient bread baking with synchrotron microtomography
Increased energy efficiency during bread baking can save time and energy, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and save money. Scientists from Finax and researchers from RISE and MAX IV used time-resolved synchrotron microtomography to explore ways to make bread baking more energy efficient.

Identifying leaking syringes with neutrons
The biopharmaceutical company Sobi together with neutron experts from RISE used neutron radiography for the detection of leakages in prefilled syringes. The results show the potential of this technique in detecting leaks, with significant advantages for design and quality assurance in syringe production.

Insights into better ways to package and deliver RNA into human cells
BioNTech, the biotech company that together with Pfizer developed one of the first COVID-19 vaccines, conducted scattering experiments at DESY’s synchrotron facility PETRA III in collaboration with the University of Mainz and the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL). Research questions and analyses were addressing the question how to better package mRNA in nanoparticles for vaccines or individualized drugs.
