Welcome to The Nanopore Site
A nanopore is a tiny hole in a thin membrane, typically just big enough to allow a single molecule of DNA to pass through. They are powerful sensors of molecules and ions and have potential applications in many areas of technology. Nanopores can be extracted from living organisms or fabricated using nanotechnology. The diversity of nanopores has resulted in their study by researchers from a variety of fields, including engineering, biology, chemistry and physics. The aim of The Nanopore Site is to provide a starting point in order to integrate efforts and create a central information platform.
