Las células poliméricas fueron diseñadas para alimentar un sensor microscópico hecho con nanotubos de carbono, destinado a la detección de toxinas y sustancias peligrosas. Dichos nanotubos detectan con gran sensibilidad cualquier sustancia, midiendo las alteraciones eléctricas que tienen lugar cuando un compuesto químico pasa por su interior (cada compuesto induce un cambio específico en la señal eléctrica). 1, record 1, Spanish, - sensor%20microsc%C3%B3pico
