Special gold nanoparticles show promise for 'cooking' cancer cells
Researchers are describing a long-awaited advance toward applying the marvels of nanotechnology in the battle against cancer. They have developed the first hollow gold nanospheres - smaller than the finest flecks of dust - that search out and "cook" cancer cells. (2009-03-23)
Targeted nanospheres find, penetrate, then fuel burning of melanoma
Hollow gold nanospheres equipped with a targeting peptide find melanoma cells, penetrate them deeply, and then cook the tumor when bathed with near-infrared light, a research team led by scientists at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center reported in the Feb. 1 issue of Clinical Cancer Research. (2009-02-02)
Engineering Nanoparticles for Maximum Strength
Because they are riddled with defects, bulk crystalline materials never achieve their ideal strength; nanocrystals, on the other hand, are so small there's no room for defects. (2008-10-21)
Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News reports on growing role of molecular diagnostics
Novel platform technologies and key advances in genomics are rapidly driving the development of molecular diagnostics, reports Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology News (GEN). (2008-10-06)
UC Santa Barbara chemist goes nano with CoQ10
If Bruce Lipshutz has his way, you may soon be buying bottles of water brimming with the life-sustaining coenzyme CoQ10 at your local Costco. (2008-07-25)
Rice researchers gain new insight into nanoscale optics
New research from Rice University has demonstrated an important analogy between electronics and optics that will enable light waves to be coupled efficiently to nanoscale structures and devices. (2005-09-15)
Nanospheres that block pain of sensitive teeth
Nanospheres could help dentists fill the tiny holes in our teeth that make them incredibly sensitive, and that cause severe pain for millions of adults and children worldwide. (2005-09-02)
The Science Of Ball Lightning
A spectacular phenomenon This theme issue of Philosophical Transactions A (a Royal Society journal) deals with the phenomenon of ball lightning, a rarely seen and slow-moving luminous phenomenon usually associated with thunderstorms. A collection of previously unpublished sightings is presented, including close-up encounters describing the detailed internal structure of the balls. Many of these observations are from scientifically or technically trained people, probably doubling the number of such observations available in the literature. A particularly spectacular image of a 100 metre diameter ball observed over five minutes at night in the Australian outback is presented and available for (2001-12-20)
