Leeds researchers reshape the future of drug discovery
Scientists in Leeds have devised a new way to create the next generation of man-made molecules in a breakthrough that could revolutionise drug development. view more (2008-11-19)
Spray to Stop Scarring in Development
A spray that halves the healing time of burns and wounds is being designed for immediate use. Marina Murphy explains how the spray could be the difference between having a disfiguring scar or not in Chemistry & Industry magazine. view more (2004-10-28)
How Life Originated In Space
Life originated on the Earth more than 3.5 billion years ago. However, the scientists are still disputing over the possible sources of the life origin. The matter is that life on our planet evolved from the molecular level to the level of bacteria organisms within 0.5 - 1 billion years, this period being very short for such an important... view more...

Flexible electronics advance boosts performance, manufacturing
Flexible electronics made with organic, or carbon-based, transistors could enable technologies such as low-cost sensors on product packaging and ''electronic paper'' displays as thin and floppy as a placemat. view more (2006-12-14)
Higher efficiency organic solar cell created by UCSB Nobel Laureate and research team
Using plastics to harvest the energy of the sun just got a significant boost in efficiency thanks to a discovery made at the Center for Polymers and Organic Solids at the University of California, Santa Barbara. view more (2007-07-13)
New system for storing lithium-polymer energy
The basque technology centre CIDETEC is working on a project about lithium-polymer energy with the collaboration of the companies CEGASA and ZIGOR. view more (2002-09-09)
At start of UK Science Week chemists honour man who created the word 'scientist'
To commemorate the life of the little-known academic who invented the word 'scientist' the Royal Society of Chemistry today laid - on the anniversary of his accidental death -a red rose wreath at his memorial in Trinity College Chapel at Cambridge University. It was on 6 March 1866 that the little-remembered but remarkable polymath William Whewell... view more... (2003-03-06)
Oldest complex organic molecules found in ancient fossils
Ohio State University geologists have isolated complex organic molecules from 350-million-year-old fossil sea creatures - the oldest such molecules yet found. view more (2006-10-26)
College science success linked to math and same-subject preparation
Researchers at Harvard University and the University of Virginia have found that high school coursework in one of the sciences generally does not predict better college performance in other scientific disciplines. view more (2007-07-27)
Classic experiments give new insight on life's origin
The building blocks of life may have emerged in volcanic eruptions on the early Earth, according to a new analysis of classic experiments performed more than fifty years ago. view more (2008-10-17)
Cheap and efficient white light LEDs new design described in AIP's Journal of Applied Physics
Roughly 20 percent of the electricity consumed worldwide is used to light homes, businesses, and other private and public spaces. Though this consumption represents a large drain on resources, it also presents a tremendous opportunity for savings. view more (2009-04-08)
Inside rocks, implications for finding life on Mars
If a future space mission to Mars brings rocks back to Earth, Schopf said the techniques he has used, called confocal laser scanning microscopy and Raman spectroscopy, could enable scientists to look at microscopic fossils inside the rocks to search for signs of life, such as organic cell walls. view more (2006-02-01)
Corn waste potentially more than ethanol
After the corn harvest, whether for cattle feed or corn on the cob, farmers usually leave the stalks and stems in the field, but now, a team of Penn State researchers think corn stover can be used not only to manufacture ethanol, but to generate electricity directly. view more (2006-07-20)
New Technique Studies How Plastic Solar Cells Turn Sunlight into Electricity
A new analytical technique that uses infrared spectroscopy to study light-sensitive organic materials could lead to the development of cheaper, more efficient solar cells. view more (2006-12-12)
Tweaking Taxol points way to a greener, more productive future
As the effective cancer-treatment drug Taxol enters its next generation, Michigan State University announces discoveries which point to both environmentally friendly ways to produce more Taxol, and ultimately innovations to produce a more potent second-generation drug. view more (2006-03-27)
Solvent exposure linked to birth defects in babies of male painters
Men who paint for a living may be placing their unborn children at increased risk of birth defects and low birth weight. view more (2006-09-28)
Pictures hardly subject to leaching during cleaning
If picture restorers are careful when using solvents, very few organic molecules are likely to be leached away from the paint layer. Serious leaching does however occur when paint samples are immersed in solvents. These are some of the results of a study carried out at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC as part of NWO’s Molart... view more... (2001-05-30)
Voracious sponges save reef
Tropical oceans are known as the deserts of the sea. And yet this unlikely environment is the very place where the rich and fertile coral reef grows. Dutch researcher Jasper de Goeij investigated how caves in the coral reef ensure the reef's continued existence. view more (2009-01-14)
'Corrective genes' closer thanks to enzyme modification
Scientists from the Université de Montréal and McGill University have re-engineered a human enzyme, a protein that accelerates chemical reactions within the human body, to become highly resistant to harmful agents such as chemotherapy, according to a new study published in The Journal of Biological Chemistry. view more (2009-07-29)
