A new atomic force microscopy (AFM) technique, which would allow users to precisely detect and map the charge distribution within molecules, has been developed by researchers in Europe. The team has ...

It's that time of year again. Fall, when the leaves turn color and the Yankees turn into spectators. At least one of these is enjoyable. A lesson on the chemistry of colorful leaf pigments shows that, ...

Chemists have made the all-cis isomer of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexafluorocyclohexane, a crystalline ring molecule with all six fluorines pointing “up” and all six hydrogens pointing “down.” This compound is ...

Only now are we beginning to unravel the mechanisms behind a cell's ability to point in any direction and navigate effectively. Eukaryotic cells often devote much time and energy to business trips.

NIMS has developed a dual surface architectonic process which enables to print submicrometer-scale circuit patterns by increasing the chemical polarity of predetermined areas on surface, thereby ...

When scientists use superresolution microscopy methods on cells, they usually get just structural information like the sizes and shapes of cellular compartments. By using a new derivative of a ...

An international research team led by the University of Bayreuth has discovered a metal that combines electrical conductivity ...
