♦ Guilt On Their Hands: Tiny 'Tags' Could Help To Solve And Deter Gun Crime

The tiny tags just 30 microns* in diameter and invisible to the naked eye are designed to be coated onto gun cartridges. They then attach themselves to the hands or gloves of anyone handling the cartridge and are very difficult to wash off completely. Crucially, some of these nanotags also remain on the cartridge even after it has been fired.	1 vote

♦ Keeping The Crunch In The Crust

In the new study, Neleke van Nieuwenhuijzen, Marcel Meinders, Ton van Vliet, and colleagues point out that scientists have known for years that dry bread crust starts losing its crispness when water migrates into the crust, resulting in a perceived loss of freshness that turns off consumers. Details of the mechanisms involved in this effect, however, have remained a mystery until now.	1 vote

♦ Mobile Phone Technology Brings Robot Swarm To Research Labs

ScienceDaily (Aug. 5, 2008) A new low cost platform for swarm robotics research which makes it possible to produce robots for as little as 24 each is being presented at the first European conference on Artificial Life which will be held in Winchester from 5-8 August. The robots will be at a press preview of a special robot demonstration tomorrow Wednesday 6 August at 4.30pm.	1 vote

♦ Guiding Lasers To Their Target

Laser induced thermal therapy (LITT) destroys unhealthy tissue, like cancer, with the intense heat supplied from a laser. The laser light is channeled through an optical fiber that can be inserted practically anywhere in the body. One of the biggest challenges in LITT is that the target cannot get too hot...	1 vote

♦ 'Anti-noise' Silences Wind Turbines

ScienceDaily (Aug. 11, 2008) If wind turbines clatter and whistle too loudly, they are only permitted to operate under partial load to protect the local residents but this also means a lower electricity output. An active damping system cancels out the noise by producing counter-vibrations. If wind energy converters are located anywhere near a residential area...	1 vote

♦ Coated Film As A Bacteria Killer

ScienceDaily (Aug. 11, 2008) A nanoproduct made from silver and calcium phosphate and developed by ETH Zurich researchers is lethal to bacteria. Its special feature is that the bacteria themselves invoke and dispense this disinfectant effect. The fact that silver is an antiseptic and thus a disinfectant has been known for about 3000 years. This is why well-to-do households used silver cutlery...	1 vote

♦ Nanotechnology: Size-specific Cracking Shakes

ScienceDaily (Aug. 5, 2008) Certain sizes of nanostructures may be more susceptible to failure by fracture than others. That is the result of new research by LLNLs Michael Manley and colleagues from Los Alamos National Laboratory that appears as a Rapid Communication in the journal Physical Review B, August 1. As the size of a structure gets to the nanoscale...	1 vote

♦ First National Study Of Diving-related Injuries

ScienceDaily (Aug. 4, 2008) If it's at the Olympic Games or at the neighborhood pool, diving is one of the fastest growing sports in the U.S. Every day millions of people do it and every four years during the Olympics, billions of people watch it. So it might surprise you that researchers are just now delving into the dangers of diving boards.	1 vote

♦ Measuring Cancer Therapy Success With Oxygen

ScienceDaily (Aug. 5, 2008) Scientists at The Ohio State University (OSU) have identified a way to predict very early in the treatment process the outcome of radiation and chemotherapy for cervical cancer patients -based on oxygen levels within the tumor. The oxygenation of a tumor is critical for the success of cancer treatment.	1 vote

♦ Gold Nanoshells Help Visibly Heat And Destroy Cancer

To overcome these treatment limits, a group of researchers based at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, turned to lasers and nanotechnology.
