Researchers from the Single-Cell Center at the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), together with collaborators, have developed an artificial intelligence-assisted Raman-activated cell sorting (AI-RACS) system. This innovative system has automated the isolation and functional analysis of aluminum-tolerant microorganisms (ATMs) from acidic soil, marking a shift from manual, labor-intensive procedures to high-throughput automated workflows.
The ITER vacuum vessel sectors, manufactured in South Korea, have been successfully delivered to the ITER construction site in Cadarache, France.
