The world's thinnest spaghetti, about 200 times thinner than a human hair, has been created by a team of UK chemists. The team at University College London (UCL) used a technique called "electrospinning" to create the nanofibres as part of master's student Beatrice Britton's research.

Nanopasta: world’s thinnest spaghetti spun out of flour

A team of UK chemists at the University College London (UCL), have created the world's thinnest spaghetti, believed to be 200 times thinner than a human hair and narrower than some wavelengths of light. The study, published in Nanoscale Advances, states that the new brand of pasta smashed the previous record for the thinnest pasta lunga by approximately a thousand times. Since each individual strand was too narrow to be clearly captured by any f…

The World’s Thinnest Pasta Is Here — But It’s Not for Eating

A close-up of nanopasta fibres. Credit: Beatrice Britton / Adam Clancy Scientists have made the world’s thinnest spaghetti, spinning white flour into fibres less than a thousandth of a millimetre thick. While delicate, the spaghetti is probably not good eating. “I don’t think it’s useful as pasta, sadly, as it would overcook in less than a second, before you could take it out of the pan,” says Professor Gareth Williams, a researcher at Universit…

The team at University College London (UCL) used a technique called “electrospinning” to create the nanofibres as part of master’s student Beatrice Britton’s research. “To make spaghetti, you push a mixture of water and flour through metal holes,” said the study’s co-author Dr Adam Clancy. “In our study, we did the same except we pulled our flour mixture through with an electrical charge. It’s literally spaghetti but much smaller.”  The scientis…

The next wave of nanotechnology is emerging from an unexpected place—the kitchen pantry. A research team at University College London (UCL) has crafted the world’s thinnest spaghetti using wheat flour, with each strand measuring just 372 nanometers across.  This isn’t a culinary experiment but a groundbreaking step toward eco-friendly nanofibers that could revolutionize fields like medicine, energy, and materials science. The Promise of Starch N…
