Photonic crystal biosensors detect protein-DNA interactions
Scientists at the University of Illinois have developed a new class of disposable, microplate-based optical biosensors capable of detecting protein-DNA interactions. Based on the properties of photonic crystals, the biosensors are suitable for the rapid identification of inhibitors of protein-nucleic acid and protein-protein interactions.   view more (2008-09-24)

Nanowire generates power by harvesting energy from the environment
As the sizes of sensor networks and mobile devices shrink toward the microscale, and even nanoscale, there is a growing need for suitable power sources. Because even the tiniest battery is too big to be used in nanoscale devices, scientists are exploring nanosize systems that can salvage energy from the environment.   view more (2007-09-28)

Disorder enables extreme sensitivity in piezoelectric materials
A research team working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has found an explanation for the extreme sensitivity to mechanical pressure or voltage of a special class of solid materials called relaxors.   view more (2008-05-19)

New Microwave Dielectric Resonator Materials for Wireless Communication - The Physics Congress 2003
A new group of ceramic materials could lead to more reliable and clearer microwave communication signals, according to engineers at South Bank University, London, speaking at the Institute of Physics Congress at Heriot-Watt University on Wednesday 26 March.   view more (2003-03-17)

Day-long drivers at risk of cardiovascular problems as a result of traffic pollution
Exposure to fine particles and pollutants that accumulate in cars driving at varying speeds in road traffic enhances the likelihood of thrombosis, inflammation and alters the regularity of the heart rhythm. A study published today in the journal Particle and Fibre Toxicology raises concerns about cardiovascular risks for vehicle drivers.   view more (2004-12-07)

Interior Finish For Vascular Wall
When "repairing" human body, specialists think about the best ways to furnish the inner vascular wall. Their research is funded through the Program of the Russian Academy of Sciences entitled "Abstract Sciences for Medicine", the US Civilian Research and Development Foundation (CRDF) and the Ministry of Education of the Russian... view more...
