Start-up gets the golden touch
Abstract:
In a laboratory outside Oxford, Kevin Matthews shows off the “pot of gold” that he believes will make the fortune of his nanotechnology company, Oxonica. The rich burgundy liquid in the flask is a suspension of microscopic gold particles, tagged with biological molecules designed to diagnose disease.
