According to new research from Michael McAlpine of Princeton University, the sensor developed by McAlpine's team detects bacteria and can operate on the surface of teeth. The graphene-based device can spot bacteria at the level of single cells and reports this using wireless technology, according to the Royal Society of Chemistry.
