nano-scale

• The steering wheel incorporates nano-scale cellulosic fibers extracted from carrot pulp left over from juicing. —  Wheels
• These tiny structures - fixed at one end and free at the other - act like nano-scale diving boards that "bend" when molecules "jump" on them and register a change that can be measured and calibrated. —  EurekAlert! - Breaking News
• The common denominator is that all these technologies - biotech, nanotech, synthetic biology - involve engineering of living organisms at the nano-scale. —  Peak Oil News
• For example, Robert Schlögl outlined how nano-scale catalysts can be used to improve the efficiency of engines or systems consuming fossil fuels. —  innovations-report
• The lack of standards or testing for food, packaging and agricultural products containing nano-materials concerns scientists such as Nobel Prize-winning Swiss physicist Heinrich Rohrer, a pioneer of nanotechnology, because materials behave in unknown ways at the nano-scale. —  Signs of the Times
