Nanoparticles get a magnetic handle: Glowing nanoparticles can be manipulated using magnetic fields

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 11:16 AM PDT

A long-sought goal of creating particles that can emit a colorful fluorescent glow in a biological environment, and that could be precisely manipulated into position within living cells, has been achieved.

A cost-effective and energy-efficient approach to carbon capture

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 06:19 AM PDT

Scientists have developed a slurry-based process that can revolutionize carbon capture. The slurry, consisting of a porous powder suspended in glycol, offers the efficient large-scale implementation of a liquid while maintaining the lower costs and energy efficiency of solid carbon-capturing materials.

Ensuring polymorphic purity in drugs

Posted: 08 Oct 2014 07:13 AM PDT

Reliable batch-to-batch formation is crucial for crystalline, active pharmaceutical ingredients as two different polymorphs of the same drug may function very differently in the body. Scientists now report that the surface chemistry of modified glass substrates can influence the nucleation and formation of specific polymorphs of the drug, carbamazepine, within a certain concentration range of supersaturated solutions.
