najtanjši špageti

Ferrari Press Agency Thinnest pasta 1 Ref 1633922/11/2024See Ferrari textPicture MUST credit: Beatrice Britton / Adam Clancy / UCLThe world's thinnest spaghetti, 200 times less thick than a human hair, has been created by researchers.The stringy pasta favourite is not intended to be a new food but was created because of the wide-ranging uses that extremely thin strands of material, called nanofibers, have in medicine and industry.Nanofibers made of starch – produced by most green plants to store excess glucose – are especially promising and could be used in bandages to aid wound healing, as scaffolding for bone regeneration and for drug delivery. However, they rely on starch being extracted from plant cells and purified, a process requiring much energy and water.A more environmentally friendly method, the researchers say, is to create nanofibers directly from a starch-rich ingredient like flour, which is the basis for pasta.The team from the UK's University College London (UCL) made spaghetti just 372 nanometres, billionths of a metre, across using a technique called electrospinning.Threads of flour and liquid are pulled through the tip of a needle by an electric charge. The work was performed by chemistry master degree student Beatrice Britton.OPS: The world's thinnest spaghetti. Each individual strand is too narrow to be clearly captured by any form of visible light camera or microscope, so the team used a scanning electron microscope.Picture supplied by Ferrari,Fotografija:937537261, Licenca:Rights-managed, Omejitve:, Model izdaje:no
