‘Armchair quantum wire’ (AQW) is the name for a weave of metallic nanotubes that
can carry electricity with negligible losses, even over long distances. “It will be an ideal
replacement for the nation’s copper-based grid, which leaks electricity at an estimated 5
percent per 100 miles of transmission” said Rice chemist Andrew R. Barron, author of a
paper published [...]

DNA based therapeutics and immunization
Human genome project has unraveled 24,000 human genes. Human genetic research for single-gene related disease has been redirected to diseases with more complex etiologies like insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, multiple sclerosis and psychiatric illnesses. Often being of multiple gene origin, these high incidence diseases cause mortality and morbidity in a wide population. The further step [...]

Nanoparticles Suspension Stability
In the recent years, great interest has been devoted to the unique properties of nanofluids. The dispersion process and the nanoparticles suspension stability have been found to be critical points in the development of these new fluids. For this reason, an experimental study on the stability of water-based dispersions containing different nanoparticles, i.e. single wall [...]
