Nanosilver2 Dec, 2009 08:15 am I was astonished when recently, during a discussion about hazards of mineral nanoparticles, a learned colleague of mine took a bottle of colloid silver...Nanoparticles come at the top of occupational chemical risks22 Apr, 2009 09:10 pm It is estimated that each year there are 74,000 work-related deaths linked to hazardous substances encountered in the workplace...Nanotechnology's True Potential14 Nov, 2008 11:14 am It is disappointing to still find articles like this one in the UK Independent that are short-sighted and actually misleading about nanotechnology:At both poles: ?Warming is directly attributed to human activities?30 Oct, 2008 07:04 pm Alexey Karpechko works at the University of East Anglia, and is co-author of a study published in this week?s issue of Nature Geoscience that shows that...Rows of atoms: watching missing atoms with electrons25 Feb, 2008 12:50 pm While electron microscopes are available for more than 70 years, they have been recently significantly improved. The use of aberration correctors improved...Action on Surfaces: Moving Molecules and Nano Particles on Surfaces28 Dec, 2007 02:13 pm To build devices at molecular scale, we need to control the position, orientation and movement of individual molecules on surfaces...LHC: The Six Billion Dollar Questions6 Dec, 2007 09:48 am Scitizen talks to Dr. Monica Dunford, a US physicist working on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiment ATLAS with the University of Chicago.Nano particles, medicine and heat conduction23 Oct, 2007 11:10 am Metal nano particles have a particularly large optical cross-section that can be used in high resolution imaging and treating cancer. Heat transport,...Sea Change for Sailors as Arctic Ice Melts14 Sep, 2007 12:40 pm For centuries, the Northwest Passage was almost impassable. Now, as climate change is melting the Arctic ice, more sailors like Richard Swanson are being...Silicon Nanoparticles Enhance Performance of Solar Cells4 Sep, 2007 02:15 pm Semiconductor fluorescent nanomaterial may find applications in photovoltaic (PV) solar cell technology through the development of cells based entirely...Assembling Nanoparticles on Liquid Interfaces Leads to Fascinating New Materials30 Aug, 2007 02:46 pm Stefan A. F. Bon discusses how you can use liquid-liquid interfaces as a tool to assemble nanoparticles into larger structures...Targeting and Detecting Cancer Cells Using Nanoparticles23 Jul, 2007 02:26 pm Current cancer therapy always experiences non-specific killing of healthy cells, thus the therapeutic efficiency is extremely low...Gold Nanoglue19 Jul, 2007 10:59 am At the nanoscale - the order of billionths of a meter, materials exhibit unique optical, electronic, and magnetic properties not seen at the bulk scale...A One-Two Punch Against Multidrug Resistant Cancer13 Jul, 2007 03:10 pm The development of multidrug resistance represents the single most important reason for therapeutic failure in the clinical management of cancer,...Will We See A New Record Low Arctic Sea Ice Extent in 2007?14 May, 2007 12:45 pm The decrease in Arctic summer ice cover, particularly evident in the western Arctic, is a well-documented and striking example of changing Arctic conditions...Smart Nano Composite Inhibits Tooth Decay15 May, 2007 12:36 pm When tooth decay recurs after the initial restoration, it is termed secondary (or ?recurrent?) decay. It occurs mostly at where the filling material binds...Strange Stirrings in the Arctic Drive Ecosystem Changes Far Downstream5 Mar, 2007 11:14 am Changes in Arctic climate during the late 1980s pumped large amounts of low-salinity water into the shelf ecosystems of the NW Atlantic...Automotive Aluminium?s Strength Unravelled at Atomic Level5 May, 2006 12:10 pm AlMgSi alloys are massively produced materials for modern industries, especially for fuel-efficient transportation vehicles. However,...Moderation Policy: Who Select the Articles?21 Jan, 2006 10:55 am The goal is to let the scientific community drive and moderate the discussions by itself in a peer review like system. |
