Solution to elusive problem
Scientists at the University of Leicester are on the way to solving a problem that has long beset chemists trying to study chemical reactions. To establish reaction mechanisms the observation of reaction intermediates is vital, but they are incredibly short-lived under normal conditions, and therefore difficult to detect. Freezing... view more... (2003-01-21)
Sunflower seeds, pistachios among top nuts for lowering cholesterol
Researchers have known for some time that nuts and seeds are rich sources of phytosterols, a class of plant chemicals that have been shown to reduce cholesterol levels and improve heart health. view more (2005-12-08)
New Chemistry & Industry Online @ www.chemind.org
Chemistry & Industry magazine from SCI has launched a revamped and enhanced website at www.chemind.org, delivering news and comment from the science-business interface at the click of a mouse.

Pesticides need sunscreen to beat the heat
A pesticide with a new in-built sunscreen will help farmers beat the heat in crop protection. This means that the bug sprays last longer, as they are protected from the strong rays of sunshine, reports Chemistry & Industry, the magazine of the SCI. view more (2006-12-18)
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)
Renewable Energy Reviewed by Chemistry & Industry - Special Issue Considers the Future of Power
Coinciding with the UK government’s energy review, the latest issue of Chemistry & Industry magazine (18 February 2002) evaluates the current and future status of renewable energy. Wind, landfill gas, biomass, solar, wave energy and fuel cells are covered. view more (2002-02-14)
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2002
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry is awarded with one half to John B. Fenn and Koichi Tanaka, for their development of methods in mass spectrometry for biomolecules, and with the other half to Kurt Wütrich, for his NMR-method to study biomolecules in solution The Nobel Prize in Chemistry for 2002 is being shared between scientists in two important... view more...

Qubit link could pave the way for world's most powerful computers
Scientists at The University of Manchester have made a major breakthrough which could pave the way for a new type of high-speed computer. view more (2005-10-17)
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)
Organic farming produces same corn and soybean yields as conventional farms, but consumes less energy and no pesticides, study finds
Organic farming produces the same yields of corn and soybeans as does conventional farming, but uses 30 percent less energy, less water and no pesticides, a review of a 22-year farming trial study concludes. view more (2005-07-14)
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)
Seaweed yields new compounds with pharmaceutical potential
Researchers have discovered 10 new molecular structures with pharmaceutical potential in a species of red seaweed that lives in the shallow coral reef along the coastline of Fiji in the south Pacific Ocean. view more (2005-10-14)
Writing at the nanoscale
At the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory, scientists have developed a new chemical "writing" technique that can create lines of "ink" only a few tens of nanometers, or billionths of a meter, in width. view more (2005-08-29)
Enzyme defect leads to hyperinsulinism
A recent study in the Journal of Biological Chemistry confirms that mutations in an enzyme called glutamate dehydrogenase can cause congenital hyperinsulinism. view more (2006-05-25)
Breakthrough: UNC scientists have created world's tiniest uniform, precisely shaped organic particles
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill chemists have developed what they believe is a breakthrough method of creating the world's tiniest manufactured particles for delivering drugs and other organic materials into the human body. view more (2005-06-22)

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)
Rutgers team's coal-to-diesel breakthrough could drastically cut oil imports
Professor Alan Goldman and his Rutgers team in collaboration with researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have developed a way to convert carbon sources, such as coal to diesel fuel. view more (2006-04-14)
Genes, brain chemistry may dictate nicotine cravings, says CU-Boulder study
Individual brain chemistry and genes could be key to understanding why some people become addicted to nicotine and why the chemical compound's effects appear to diminish at night. view more (2007-11-07)
new structural view of organic electronic devices
Although still in the qualifying rounds, U.S. researchers are helping manufacturers win the race to develop low-cost ways to commercialize a multitude of products based on inexpensive organic electronic materials-from large solar-power arrays to electronic newspapers that can be bent and folded. view more (2005-09-13)
