UCLA, Italian chemists move closer to solving Lou Gehrig's disease mystery
Chemists from UCLA and the University of Florence in Italy may have solved an important mystery about a protein that plays a key role in a particular form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, a progressive, fatal neurodegenerative disorder that strikes without warning. view more (2007-06-28)
Popcorn-ball design doubles efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells
A new approach is able to create a dramatic improvement in cheap solar cells now being developed in laboratories. view more (2008-04-11)
Therapeutic nanoparticles give new meaning to sugar-coating medicine
A research team at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) studying sugar-coated nanoparticles for use as a possible cancer therapy has uncovered a delicate balancing act that makes the particles more effective than conventional thinking says they should be. view more (2009-09-23)
Aluminum-oxide nanopore beats other materials for DNA analysis
Fast and affordable genome sequencing has moved a step closer with a new solid-state nanopore sensor being developed by researchers at the University of Illinois. view more (2009-06-03)
Researchers Find Controls to Gold Nanocatalysis
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have made a discovery that could allow scientists to exercise more control over the catalytic activity of gold nanoclusters. view more (2006-08-10)
Common bacteria pirate natural mechanism to get inside cells
Bacteria and viruses utilize a natural mechanism to get inside cells and grow, researchers say. view more (2006-01-26)
Nanowires can detect molecular signs of cancer, scientists find
Harvard University researchers have found that molecular markers indicating the presence of cancer in the body are readily detected in blood scanned by special arrays of silicon nanowires - even when these cancer markers constitute only one hundred-billionth of the protein present in a drop of blood. view more (2005-09-26)
Nitric oxide: Key to cardiovascular and pulmonary function and drug effectiveness
A naturally occurring molecule in the body appears to control whether certain medications, such as beta adrenergic receptor agonists used in acute heart failure or in inhalers for asthma, lose their effectiveness over time. view more (2007-05-04)
Super sensitive gas detector goes down the nanotubes
When cells are under stress, they blow off steam by releasing minute amounts of nitrogen oxides and other toxic gases. view more (2009-01-14)
New nanotech products hitting the market at the rate of 3-4 per week
New nanotechnology consumer products are coming on the market at the rate of 3-4 per week, a finding based on the latest update to the nanotechnology consumer product inventory maintained by the Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies (PEN). view more (2008-04-25)
Scientists help explain effects of ancient Chinese herbal formulas on heart health
New research at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston suggests that ancient Chinese herbal formulas used primarily for cardiovascular indications including heart disease may produce large amounts of artery-widening nitric oxide. view more (2009-08-19)
New synthetic compounds appear to prevent brain cell death
Spanish chemists have developed a promising set of synthetic compounds that one day could help slow or perhaps halt the progression of Alzheimer's disease and other neurological disorders. view more (2005-12-21)
The End of the Line for Silicon Dioxide?
By means of computer simulations, scientists at the Technical Universities in Clausthal and Vienna are investigating new materials for even smaller and more efficient transistor generations. The smaller the transistors, the faster they can operate. As a result, faster and faster processors can also be designed. The function of a transistor... view more... (2003-12-23)
ESC Congress 2004: PERTINENT - PERindopril - Thrombosis, InflammatioN, Endothelial dysfunction and Neurohormonal activation Trial
A Sub-Study of the EUROPA Study Evaluation of the Effect of Perindopril on Endothelial Function view more (2004-08-31)
New light shed on marine luminescence
The phenomenon of light emission by living organisms, bioluminescence, is quite common, especially in marine species. view more (2009-02-23)
U-M study offers new perspective on nitric oxide signaling in rheumatoid arthritis
Scientists at the University of Michigan Medical School have found evidence that challenges current thinking about the cause of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a chronic inflammatory disease that damages joints, causes pain, loss of movement, and bone deformities in 2.1 million Americans. view more (2006-10-31)
Study of the corrosive effects of water
As is known, corrosion is defined as the destruction of a material under chemical or electrochemical action by its surrounding environment. The reactions and transformations involved in this corrosion are due to the thermodynamic instability in the materials of which the surrounding environment is made up, giving rise to products with properties... view more...

INTELLIGENT ANTI-CORROSION COATING GIVES TURBINES IMPROVED PROTECTION
British materials scientists have invented a revolutionary new protective coating for high performance industrial and marine gas turbines. The new system called Smartcoat, can adapt to different types of corrosion modifying its chemical structure in response. The new coating can protect turbines in a wide range of different corrosion scenarios,... view more... (1999-09-09)
'Erectile dysfunction' drugs heighten natural anti-cancer activity
Sildenafil and other "impotence drugs" that boost the production of a gassy chemical messenger to dilate blood vessels and produce an erection now also show promise in unmasking cancer cells so that the immune system can recognize and attack them, say scientists at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center. view more (2006-12-08)
Study explains unexpected conductivity of nanoscale silicon
When graduate student Pengpeng Zhang successfully imaged a piece of silicon just 10 nanometers-or a millionth of a centimeter-in thickness, she and her University of Wisconsin-Madison co-researchers were puzzled. view more (2006-02-09)
