Chemistry World September 10, 2013 Emily Skinner	Shape memory polymer hosts functional nanoparticles Scientists in China have developed a polymer scaffold for functional nanoparticles that can be folded and mangled but will reform into its original shape if it is placed in water.
Chemistry World September 10, 2013 Emma Stoye	Mosquito repellents from skin secretions Those plagued by mosquitoes may one day be able to ditch the DEET in favour of substances naturally produced by skin, according to researchers at the US Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service.
Chemistry World September 9, 2013 David Bradley	Worrying molecule found in bottled water Researchers at the German Federal Institute of Hydrology, have turned their attention to bottled water given growing concerns that such products might contain worrying levels of endocrine disrupting chemicals.
Chemistry World September 9, 2013 Jennifer Newton	Handcuff catenanes Scientists in the US have successfully used a template directed protocol to synthesize two topological isomers of a handcuff catenane.
Chemistry World September 9, 2013 Emma Stoye	Water-splitting catalyst based on Prussian blue Prussian blue has been used for over 300 years as a pigment in dyes and an antidote to heavy metal poisoning. Researchers say it could help improve water splitting 'artificial leaf' technology, thanks to the catalytic activity of a cobalt-containing derivative.
Chemistry World September 9, 2013 James Urquhart	Tea stains find new use as antibacterial coating US researchers have discovered a simple way to make coatings with antibacterial and antioxidant properties using polyphenols found in green tea, red wine and cacao.
Chemistry World September 6, 2013 Melissae Fellet	Unravelling stereochemistry via mass spectrometry Researchers have used mass spectrometry to determine the stereochemistry of a prototypical chiral molecule, CHBrClF.
Chemistry World September 6, 2013 Jeanne Therese Andres	All-in-one 3D printing Imagine printing anything from electronic devices to artificial bones using the same 3D printer. Now, scientists have developed a universal approach for printing materials with easy-to-modify surfaces to eliminate the need for multiple 3D printers.
Chemistry World September 6, 2013 Mark Peplow	Misconduct: on the blog and in the open In August, the popular blogs ChemBark and Chemistry Blog made a series of posts about research misconduct relating to alleged data manipulation in three papers. But are blogs the right forum to expose these cases?
Chemistry World September 5, 2013 Jason Woolford	A biochemical eyewitness Blood found at a crime scene could give police an indication of a criminal suspect's ethnicity there and then thanks to a new bioassay.
