Molecules on a string, and why size isn't the only thing that matters for data storage
Molecules of hydrogen are difficult to steer with electric fields because of the symmetrical way that charges are distributed within them. But now researchers at ETH Zurich have found a clever technique to get a grip on the molecules. view more (2009-09-15)
New markers of climate change
A new way to monitor the effects of climate change on rainforests is being investigated at Cambridge University. Researchers are using biomarkers in the shape of epiphytes ('air-plants' which grow on other plants) to find out how their photosynthesis and water evaporation have been affected by climate change over the last 50 years. view more (2005-07-13)
Chemistry turns killer gas into potential cure
Despite its deadly reputation, the gas carbon monoxide (CO) could actually save lives and boost health in future as a result of leading-edge UK research. view more (2007-10-16)
Measuring the immeasurable: New study links heat transfer, bond strength of materials
The speed at which heat moves between two materials touching each other is a potent indicator of how strongly they are bonded to each other, according to a new study by researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. view more (2009-04-14)
Discovery to aid study of biological structures, molecules
Researchers in the United States and Spain have discovered that a tool widely used in nanoscale imaging works differently in watery environments, a step toward better using the instrument to study biological molecules and structures. view more (2009-08-12)
LLNL researchers peer into water in carbon nanotubes
Researchers have identified a signature for water inside single-walled carbon nanotubes, helping them understand how water is structured and how it moves within these tiny channels. view more (2008-06-26)
Mars Express confirms methane in the Martian atmosphere
During recent observations from the ESA Mars Express spacecraft in orbit around Mars, methane was detected in its atmosphere. Whilst it is too early to draw any conclusions on its origin, exciting as they may be, scientists are thinking about the next steps to take in order to understand more. From the time of its arrival at Mars, the Mars... view more... (2004-03-30)
Researchers shed new light on catalyzed reactions
Rice University scientists on the hunt for a better way to clean up the stubborn pollutant TCE have created a method that lets them watch molecules break down on the surface of a catalyst as individual chemical bonds are formed and broken. view more (2008-11-20)
In touch with molecules
The performance of modern electronics increases steadily on a fast pace thanks to the ongoing miniaturization of the utilized components. view more (2009-11-13)
Monash team learns from nature to split water
An international team of researchers led by Monash University has used chemicals found in plants to replicate a key process in photosynthesis paving the way to a new approach that uses sunlight to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. view more (2008-08-18)
Nominations sought for 2001 Stockholm industry water award
Award Honors Business Contributions to Sustainable Water Development Companies that have contributed to pollution elimination or reduced freshwater consumption through innovative programs, policies, processes or products now have the opportunity to nominate themselves for the prestigious Stockholm Industry Water Award. Until February 28, 2001,... view more... (2000-11-02)
DNA sieve -- Nanoscale pores can be tiny analysis labs
Imagine being able to rapidly identify tiny biological molecules such as DNA and toxins using less than a drop of salt water in a system that can fit on a microchip. view more (2007-05-14)
ESA to search for life, but not as we know it
This week, astrobiologists are discussing what ESA`s Huygens spaceprobe might discover when it parachutes to the surface of Saturn`s mysterious moon, Titan, in 2005. Titan possesses a rich atmosphere of organic molecules, which Huygens will analyse. Recently some scientists have begun to think that, by redefining life, in broader terms, what we... view more...

Little lifesavers — Nanoparticles improve delivery of medicines and diagnostics
Tiny, biodegradable particles filled with medicine may also contain answers to some of the biggest human health problems, including cancer and tuberculosis. The secret is the size of the package. view more (2007-04-11)
Duke Innovations Improve Accuracy Of MRI As Internal "Thermometer"
Duke University chemists say they have developed a new way to measure temperature changes inside the body with unprecedented precision by correcting a subtle error in the original theory underlying Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). view more (2008-10-17)
Drought reduces nitrogen-fixing in legumes
In drought conditions, the capacity for retaining carbon in legume nodules is limited and this may be the reason why there is a drop in nitrogen-fixing in legumes under these conditions. This was the conclusion of Mar'a Dolores G'Ħlvez in defending her PhD thesis at the Public University of Navarre. Her PhD was entitled, "Nodule metabolism... view more... (2005-02-04)

Pure water without electricity
Many a visitor to Majorca - the island of choice for German and British vacationers - has made the bitter experience: The drinking water in some parts of the island is unbearably salty. Naturally, water treatment plant operators make a concerted effort to lower the salt and lime content of their water to acceptable levels by mixing in fresh water.... view more... (2002-07-22)
Arterial, venous or total mesenteric ischemia/reperfusion causes different types of injury?
It is known that I/R induces an inflammatory response deleterious to the organ involved but also to the system as a whole. view more (2009-08-27)
Synthetic molecules hold promise for new family of anti-cancer drugs
Synthetic molecules designed by two Hebrew University of Jerusalem researchers have succeeded in reducing and even eliminating the growth of human malignant tissues in mice, while having no toxic effects on normal tissue. view more (2008-06-05)
