Unusually stable glasses may benefit drugs, coatings
Just spray and chill. That sums up a new approach to making remarkably stable glassy materials from organic (carbon-containing) molecules that could lead to novel coatings and to improvements in drug delivery. view more (2006-12-11)
New biosensor can detect bacteria instantaneously
A research group from the Rovira i Virgili University (URV) in Tarragona has developed a biosensor that can immediately detect very low levels of Salmonella typhi, the bacteria that causes typhoid fever. view more (2009-09-09)

Tropical plants go with the flow ... of nitrogen
Tropical plants are able to adapt to environmental change by extracting nitrogen from a variety of sources, according to a new study that appears in the May 7 early online edition of The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. view more (2007-05-08)
Novel organic metal hybrids that will revolutionize materials science and chemical engineering
A novel class of hybrid materials made from metals and organic compounds is changing the face of solid state chemistry and materials science just 10 years after its discovery, with applications already in safe storage of highly inflammable gases such as hydrogen and methane. view more (2008-02-19)
Rivers are carbon processors, not inert pipelines
Microorganisms in rivers and streams play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle that has not previously been considered. view more (2008-12-02)
Compound reveals new link between signaling protein and cell migration
University of Illinois at Chicago researchers report that a protein that regulates key signaling pathways in cells also plays a role in controlling the active movement or migration of cells. view more (2005-09-26)
European Water Directive: Optical sensors detect minute amounts of pollutants
Minute amounts of organic pollutants-including oestrone-can now be detected in river water as a result of a new optical sensing instrument realised in a project funded by the EU's Environment Programme. view more (2004-09-01)

UA Physicists Discover 'Super Crystals' in a Semiconductor
University of Arizona physicists have discovered that "super crystals" -- crystals which are hundreds to thousands times larger than conventional crystals -- exist in certain organic semiconducting solids. view more (2007-08-17)
Thioethers synthesis process
Although today there exists a number of methods for the synthesis of organic molecules (the main components of certain medicines, foods, additives, paints, fabrics, liquid crystals, etc.), in most cases toxic reagents and solvents have to be used. view more (2007-04-03)
Selecting life: Scientists find new way to search for origin of life
Over the last half century, researchers have found that mineral surfaces may have played critical roles organizing, or activating, molecules that would become essential ingredients to all life-such as amino acids (the building blocks of proteins) and nucleic acids (the essence of DNA). But which of the countless possible combinations of... view more... (2006-11-10)
Animal Welfare: European Commission supports research to improve animal breeding and food quality
How are animals fed and treated? In the aftermath of the mad cow and other food scare crises, European consumers are more and more concerned about "farm to fork" food safety and where their food comes from. EU research can help improve animal breeding and living conditions. The European Commission discussed farm animal welfare research... view more... (2002-04-24)
Advancing How Computers and Electronics Work
Researchers have made an important advance in the emerging field of 'spintronics' that may one day usher in a new generation of smaller, smarter, faster computers, sensors and other devices, according to findings reported in today's issue of the journal Nature Nanotechnology. view more (2007-03-20)
