Chemistry World September 29, 2009 Lewis Brindley	Super-thin nanowires made inside nanotubes Japanese researchers have made ultra-thin metal wires by growing them inside carbon nanotubes.
Chemistry World September 25, 2009 Simon Hadlington	New MRI protein probe Researchers in Japan have invented a new way to detect the presence of proteins in cells and tissues by magnetic resonance imaging.
Chemistry World September 18, 2009 Lewis Brindley	Homogenised nanotubes show electronics promise The process uses ultraviolet light and air to produce purified semiconducting nanotubes, which could be valuable in developing the next generation of computer chips.
Chemistry World September 15, 2009 Lewis Brindley	Super-thin batteries made from paper and algae Although the batteries have lower voltage and power density than conventional batteries, their low cost and flexibility hold great promise for applications where metal-based batteries are impractical.
Chemistry World September 14, 2009 Simon Hadlington	New 'on-off' membrane for drug delivery A team led by Daniel Kohane of Harvard Medical School in Boston, US, harnessed the thermosensitive properties of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) to form the basis of the new system.
Chemistry World September 14, 2009 Hayley Birch	All that is small is not nano Mark Wiesner of Duke University, US, says it is too easy to tar all nanoparticles with the same brush. 'All that is small is not necessarily nano,' he says. 'You need to have that novel property. The question then becomes: what's the taxonomy of these nanomaterials?'
Chemistry World September 11, 2009 Nina Notman	Photographing flexible electronics Scientists in Germany have taken inspiration from photography to develop a fast, room temperature route to making flexible electronic components, which could lead to low cost flexible solar cells and other flexible electronic devices.
Information Today September 10, 2009	AIP UniPHY Offers New Networking Platform for the Physical Sciences The American Institute of Physics launched a new website, AIP UniPHY, a first-of-its-kind scientific networking platform for physical scientists.
Chemistry World September 8, 2009 James Urquhart	Hybrid nano material targets antibiotic resistant bacteria German researchers have developed a hybrid, light activated nanomaterial that can target, label and kill harmful antibiotic resistant bacteria such as Escherichia coli.
Chemistry World September 2, 2009 Phillip Broadwith	Shining a light on DNA-binding drugs in living cells German researchers have used standard circular dichroism spectroscopy to probe interactions between drug molecules and DNA within living cells.
