Nanoemulsion potent against superbugs killing cystic fibrosis patients
University of Michigan scientists report highly encouraging evidence that a super-fine oil-and-water emulsion, already shown to kill many other microbes, may be able to quell the ravaging, often drug-resistant infections that cause nearly all cystic fibrosis deaths. view more (2009-02-05)
The ones that get away
Researchers funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) have found evidence that particles of lead solder used in plumbing may have sickened two Greenville, N.C., children, in one case at a child's home and in the other case, at a private daycare center. view more (2006-06-30)

Household cleaners effectively remove lead-laden dust
All-purpose detergents remove lead-contaminated dust from household surfaces just as effectively as high phosphate detergents and lead-specific cleaning products. view more (2005-12-16)
Plastic as hard and clear as glass
Plastics come in many forms. They are used to make boats, magnifiers, skis and all manner of household items. Transparent plastic sheet panels would be ideal in the manufacture of windows or headlamps of cars, for example, and tinted plastic foils could more readily be used to protect against the sun – if only the material was not so easily... view more...

Ultra-Intense Laser Blast Creates True 'Black Metal'
"Black gold" is not just an expression anymore. Scientists at the University of Rochester have created a way to change the properties of almost any metal to render it, literally, black. view more (2006-11-22)
Ductile grinding of silicon wafers
Microchips have become an indispensable feature of everyday life. They make telephones and washing machines "smart", they control computers, and take the strain out of car driving. These tiny devices are produced on flat sheets of silicon, known as wafers. Conventional wafers measure 200 millimeters in diameter, but soon 300-millimeter diameters... view more... (1999-07-01)
Tiny particles may pose threat to liver cells, say scientists
Researchers at the University of Edinburgh are to study the effects of nanoparticles on the liver. In a UK first, the scientists will assess whether nanoparticles -already found in pollution from traffic exhaust, but also used in making household goods such as paint, sunblock, food, cosmetics and clothes- can cause damage to the cells of the liver. view more (2006-04-05)
When cave crickets go out for dinner, they really go, researchers say
Cave crickets travel farther from their homes to forage - by about double - than their previously reported range, researchers have discovered. view more (2005-09-08)
Improved NIST SRM aids lead poisoning detection
Lead in goat blood might not be on the top of your shopping list, but for U.S. medical personnel who each year perform more than 2 million human blood measurements, Standard Reference Material (SRM) 955c from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) can't be beat. view more (2007-08-06)
Gloves off in war on needles
NEEDLESTICK or scalpel injuries put healthcare workers at risk of life-threatening infections such as hepatitis C and HIV. But a simple pair of gloves that automatically disinfects the wounds could boost the chances of avoiding infection. More than 1 in 3 nurses in the UK have been stuck by a needle previously used to inject a patient, and 7 per... view more... (2003-05-28)

Software advance helps computers act logically
Computers just respond to commands, never "thinking" about the consequences. A new software language, however, promises to enable computers to reason much more precisely and thus better reflect subtleties intended by commands of human operators. view more (2005-06-17)
