Adah Almutairi, Ph.D., assistant professor in the Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of California, San Diego, is first author of a paper recently published in the Proceedings of the ...
Lead is one of the most dangerous heavy metals and is especially toxic to children. Safe and effective detoxification processes are needed. As reported in the journal Angewandte Chemie, a Korean team led by Won Seok Han and Jong Hwa Jung has developed a new, highly promising approach. It is based on a fluorescence receptor that selectively and strongly binds to lead ions.
Bruker Daltonics announced today that it has signed a contract with the Japanese National Police Agency (NPA) for the supply of 51 units of its state-of-the-art ESI-TOF system, micrOTOF-II focus. The contract with a value of more than $12 million USD includes micrOTOF-II systems to be installed in each of the NPA's Prefecture forensic laboratories, as well as HPLC and CE systems, providing a complete analysis package.
Apogee Power Inc. a Silicon Valley based clean tech battery research company announces the launch of its Nano-Technology Enhanced, Lithium cordless power tools and power tool replacement batteries. Apogee's patented LiCoO2 and C-LiFePO4 battery packs and cordless tools are the only cost effective GREEN technology that can replace toxic NiCd and NiMh.
In October 2008, the US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) released a fact sheet providing an overview on the use of nanotechnology in environmental remediation (US EPA Fact Sheet, 2008). Because of their increased...
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has acknowledged that its voluntary approach to reporting has yielded only limited information on a small fraction of the hundreds of potentially toxic nanomaterials already...
In a recent paper,* researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) described a new method for creating gas detectors so sensitive that some day they may be able to register these tiny emissions from a single cell, providing a new way to determine if drugs or nanoparticles harm cells or to study how cells communicate with one another.
A new study* from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Rice University, however, offers an inexpensive process that gets nanotubes to obediently line themselves up-that is, self-assemble-in neat rows, more like ducks.
Information obtained from a new application of photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is worth its weight in gold to breast cancer patients.
For the first time, Lihong Wang, Ph.D., Gene K. Beare Distinguished Professor in th...
Electrical engineering researchers at the University of Arkansas have demonstrated that magnetic nanotubes combined with nerve growth factor can enable specific cells to differentiate into neurons.
