Chemistry World January 31, 2012 Yuandi Li	Molecular dynamics to combat chemical terrorism Computers can make finding new ways of decontaminating the deadliest known chemicals safer and easier, according to US researchers.
Chemistry World January 26, 2012 David Bradley	Leaky graphene oxide lets water pour through UK researchers have created a graphene-based membrane that allows water through but not helium.
Chemistry World January 26, 2012 Simon Hadlington	The world's first magnetic soap Researchers have created a liquid surfactant that can be moved by a magnet.
Chemistry World January 20, 2012 Andy Extance	Tube-wrapped lamp makes malaria drug German researchers have developed an inexpensive three-step continuous flow synthesis of artemisinin, the key drug in the ongoing fight against malaria.
Chemistry World January 19, 2012 Elinor Richards	Korean doors inspire new energy converter In a setup resembling traditional Korean doors, scientists from Korea have made dye-sensitised solar cells that are bendy enough to be rolled around a pen and twisted, while maintaining their energy conversion efficiency at 90% of that of the flat form.
Chemistry World January 19, 2012 Rebecca Brodie	Efficiently harvesting the power of the sun Scientists from Japan and India have created a dye-sensitised solar cell with the highest recorded efficiency of 11.4%, breaking the record set five years ago.
Chemistry World January 18, 2012 Laura Howes	A simple separation solution for carbon nanotubes Single-walled carbon nanotubes exist in both metallic and semiconducting forms, but many of the applications of the materials require either one type or the other, making separation increasingly important.
Chemistry World January 16, 2012 Kate McAlpine	Stripped down spectroscopy to probe single molecules Spectroscopy, a key method of identifying atoms and molecules with light, has been taken to its most fundamental level - a single photon absorbed by a single molecule.
Chemistry World January 12, 2012 Simon Hadlington	Composites Reinforced in 3D A method that uses magnetic fields to align tiny structural elements within a polymer matrix has been developed by scientists in Switzerland.
Chemistry World January 12, 2012 Russell Johnson	Staining tissue samples at the microscale A vertical microfluidic probe developed by researchers in Switzerland can create a range of immunohistochemistry staining conditions on a single tissue sample.
