Two-in-One: Chemical Selectivity with Different Colors of Light
In a recent Communication in Macromolecular Rapid Communications, a study explores the possibility to control reactions by means of irradiation with specific wavelengths of light.
Ruthenium-Containing Polymetallodrug for Anticancer Treatment
A polymetallodrug that overcomes the side effects of conventional anticancer phototherapy has been synthesized.
Gamma-Cyclodextrin-Recognizable Hydrogels
Combining the ion-recognition ability of crown ether units and the thermo-induced volume change behavior of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) polymers, different kinds of ion-responsive hydrogels are developed.
Exfoliation of Graphene in Volatile Solvents Using Aromatic Surfactants
A multidisciplinary group led by Andrea Liscio at CNR, Bolgna, Italy, has reported that adding aromatic surfactants promotes the exfoliation of few-layers graphene nanosheets in low-boiling organic solvents.
Human-like Androids are the Future of Tomorrow
The initial foundation to achieve biomimetic human robots may be here, via a platform for the rapid fabrication of biologically relevant artificial tissues and organs which was recently proposed.
Manufacturing of Reticulated Open-Cellular Aluminum Nitride Ceramic Foams
A process for the fabrication of open-cellular aluminum nitride foams by the replica technique avoiding the usage of organic solvents has been developed.
Spontaneous Formation of Bicolored Janus Particles
Shin-Hyun Kim and his coworkers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have developed a simple method to create bicolored Janus particles via phase separation of polymers in emulsion drops.
Engineering Surfaces Through Sequential Stop-Flow Photopatterning
Researchers report the engineering of surfaces through sequential stop-flow photopatterning, in work dedicated to the late Professor Edward Kramer.
