Nanowire Sensors Could Indicate Whether a Patient is at Risk of a Heart Attack

Nanowires are extremely thin, so their properties can change dramatically when they adsorb even a small amount of a chemical. For this reason, nanowires have been used in sensors to identify viruses, DNA, RNA, proteins and smaller molecules.

Coating Individual Living Yeast Cells with Silicon Dioxide

Our breakfast egg is a peculiarity of nature: a single cell protected by a thin mineral layer. Apart from a number of tiny radiolaria and diatoms, individual cells normally do not have a hard shell. Korean researchers have now developed a strategy for equipping individual cells of baker's yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with a synthetic shell made of silicon dioxide.

Researchers Reveal List Showing Structures of More than 2.7 Million Zeolite-Like Materials

In all the world, there are about 200 types of zeolite, a compound of silicon, aluminum and oxygen that gives civilization such things as laundry detergent, kitty litter and gasoline. But thanks to computations by Rice University professor Michael Deem and his colleagues, it appears there are -- or could be -- more types of zeolites than once thought.
