Algae burn for you

 

Finding sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels that would both solve the problem of dwindling supplies of oil and cut the net carbon dioxide emissions from vehicles running on hydrocarbon fuels is a cause high on the environmental agenda. The use of biomass as a source for fuels compounds has benefits, but the setting aside of the great tracts of land required to “grow” adequate crops for conversion into biodiesel detracts from a parallel agenda of …

Drugs used to overcome cancer may also combat antibiotic resistance: McMaster researchers

 

Drugs used to overcome cancer may also combat antibiotic resistance: McMaster researchers – The pharmaceutical sector has made a big investment in targeting kinases proteins, so there are a lot of compounds and drugs out there that, although they were designed to overcome cancer, they can in fact be looked at with fresh eyes and maybe repurposed to address the problem of antibiotic resistance.

First electronic optical fibers with hydrogenated amorphous silicon are developed

 

First electronic optical fibers with hydrogenated amorphous silicon are developed – A new chemical technique for depositing a non-crystalline form of silicon into the long, ultra-thin pores of optical fibers has been developed by an international team of scientists in the United States and the United Kingdom. The technique, which is the first of its kind to use high-pressure chemistry for making well-developed films and wires of this particular kind of silicon semiconductor, will …

MSU chemists solve 84-year-old theory

 

MSU chemists become the first to solve an 84-year-old theory – The same principle that causes figure skaters to spin faster as they draw their arms into their bodies has now been used by Michigan State University researchers to understand how molecules move energy around following the absorption of light. In the current issue of Science, MSU chemist Jim McCusker demonstrates for the first time the effect is real and also suggests how scientists …

New synthetic molecules treat autoimmune disease in mice

 

New synthetic molecules treat autoimmune disease in mice – A team of Weizmann Institute scientists has turned the tables on an autoimmune disease. In such diseases, including Crohn's and rheumatoid arthritis, the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's tissues. But the scientists managed to trick the immune systems of mice into targeting one of the body's players in autoimmune processes, an enzyme known as MMP9. The results of their research appear today in Nature …

Reactive Reports

After 75 issues and ten years of the chemistry webzine, Reactive Reports, one of the first chemistry news sites to be launched way back in 1999, the site has been given a makeover. More than a makeover, a complete overhaul and replacement of old worn-out body parts.

Reactive Reports is now wholly owned and operated by David Bradley Science Writer, hosted on an independent web server, with an entirely new theme, content management system (CMS) and ethos. As of January 2011, RR also now has a section called Slinn Pickings in which well-known chemist and author Robert Slinn filters out and distils the best news from the chemical sciences.

The Reactive Reports archives remain in place of course, although the popular, older content is gradually being incorporated into the new CMS, so that it follows the new theme. This has the added advantage of enabling comments on the converted pages, something that was missing from the old theme.
