Scientists discover new chemical reaction for DNA production in bacteria and viruses
A team of researchers has discovered a new chemical reaction for producing one of the four nucleotides, or building blocks, needed to build DNA. view more (2009-04-17)
New light cast on key chemical reactions in interstellar space
A detailed understanding of key chemical reactions that take place in interstellar space has been provided by groundbreaking research at two U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories and two European universities. view more (2007-07-12)
Infrastructure award for integrated approach to bioscience research
A key feature of the new infrastructure will be a centralised Technology Facility. This will provide a world class technology base to serve both the Biology Department and the Structural Biology Laboratory of the University's Department of Chemistry, and to foster synergistic and multidisciplinary approaches to research and training. Crucially,... view more... (1999-12-07)
Novel polymer delivers genetic medicine, allows tracking
Theresa M. Reineke, associate professor of chemistry in the College of Science, and colleagues in her lab at Virginia Tech and at the University of Cincinnati have developed a new molecule that can travel into cells, deliver genetic cargo, and packs a beacon so scientists can follow its movements in living systems. view more (2009-10-07)
ASU professor 'follows the elements' to understand evolution in ancient oceans
In the search for life beyond Earth, scientists 'follow the water' to find places that might be hospitable. However, every home gardener knows that plants need more than water, or even sunshine. view more (2008-12-08)
U of M researchers discover new method to combat HIV
Researchers at the University of Minnesota's Center for Drug Design have developed a new method to combat HIV/AIDS, potentially replacing the traditional cocktail drug approach. view more (2007-07-24)
Faster, more cost-effective DNA test for crime scenes, disease diagnosis
Scientists in Japan are reporting development of a faster, less expensive version of the fabled polymerase chain reaction (PCR) a DNA test widely used in criminal investigations, disease diagnosis, biological research and other applications. view more (2009-07-09)
Chemistry & Industry Press Release for Issue 24 - Cover Date 17 December
NEWS US Chemicals heading toward trade deficit (p783) The US is set to slide into its first trade deficit since the 1920s next year and the Republic of Ireland will run close to Canada in the race to be the largest exporter to the US in value terms. Cartels face EUR135M fines (p783) Citric acid producers Roche, Archer Daniels Midland,... view more... (2001-12-14)
New materials can selectively capture carbon dioxide, UCLA chemists report
UCLA chemists report a major advance in reducing heat-trapping carbon dioxide emissions in the Feb. 15 issue of the journal Science. view more (2008-02-15)
Chemistry by the thimbleful
The trend toward miniaturization has also taken a hold in chemistry because in miniaturized reactors, the risk of explosions is nearly none and the reaction can be better controlled. At the Analytica trade fair scientists show how to improve chemical engineering and production. -------------- The dinosaurs of the chemical industry are not facing... view more... (2002-04-16)
Orientation of antenna protein in photosynthetic bacteria described
Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have figured out the orientation of a protein in the antenna complex to its neighboring membrane in a photosynthetic bacterium, a key find in the process of energy transfer in photosynthesis. view more (2009-04-03)
New paper reveals nanoscale details of photolithography process
Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have made the first direct measurements of the infinitesimal expansion and collapse of thin polymer films used in the manufacture of advanced semiconductor devices. view more (2007-12-13)
Improved Method for Separation of Organic Isomers
Researchers in Oxford University's Department of Inorganic Chemistry have devised a novel method for separating polar organic compounds, providing a useful alternative to the usual methods of chromatography or crystallisation. The separation of mixtures of organic and inorganic compounds is of considerable importance in most areas of industrial... view more... (2003-02-11)

Nanotubes inspire new technique for healing broken bones
Scientists have shown for the first time that carbon nanotubes make an ideal scaffold for the growth of bone tissue. The new technique could change the way doctors treat broken bones, allowing them to simply inject a solution of nanotubes into a fracture to promote healing view more (2005-07-11)
New, light-driven nanomotor is simpler, more promising, scientists say
Sunflowers track the sun as it moves from east to west. But people usually have to convert sunlight into electricity or heat to put its power to use. view more (2009-06-08)
Securing The Future
A major new tranche of funding is announced today by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). These, the first awards in the Science and Innovation Awards programme will directly build the UK's research base in diverse areas. view more (2005-05-09)
Rutgers findings a step toward safer chemicals in labs and industry
Safe, versatile and environmentally friendly chemicals could replace hazardous, petroleum-based solvents used in science labs and industrial plants. view more (2005-10-24)
Light-Speed Nanotech: Controlling the Nature of Graphene
Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have discovered a new method for controlling the nature of graphene, bringing academia and industry potentially one step closer to realizing the mass production of graphene-based nanoelectronics. view more (2009-01-22)
Enzyme defect leads to hyperinsulinism
A recent study in the Journal of Biological Chemistry confirms that mutations in an enzyme called glutamate dehydrogenase can cause congenital hyperinsulinism. view more (2006-05-25)
