First-class Protein Crystals Thanks To Weightlessness On Earth

Dutch chemist Paul Poodt has developed two attractive alternatives for allowing protein crystals to grow under weightless conditions. If the crystals are grown upside down in a strong magnetic field, fluid flows that disrupt crystal growth are suppressed. Therefore, high-quality proteins no longer need to be grown in space, but can be grown here on earth.

Carbon nanotube cluster successfully grown

A team of US scientists at Duke University [profile] in the USA say they have brought the commercial utilisation of carbon nanotubes in ICs a step further by using IC-like masking processes to align arrays of nanotubes. "To the best of our knowledge, it is the highest density of aligned, single-wall nanotubes reported," the researchers, led by Professor Jie Liu, wrote in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. Ten nanotubes, a few atoms thick and all facing in the same direction with none of them crossing, were grown in a micron-wide space. "Compared with what other people have done, we have reached a higher density of nanotubes," said Liu. The problem with nanotubes, up to now, has been getting them to grow straight, long enough and sufficiently densely packed to be practical for carrying current.

Novell's Linux Business Takes a Seat At the Grown-Up Table

CNet is reporting that while Novell still has a long way to go before they start making Red Hat nervous, they have at least gotten a seat at the grown-up table. Reporting 31% year-over-year growth in their Linux business, Novell attributes very little of this success to their Microsoft partnership, looking to their Redmond connection mainly for interoperability work. "Novell's core Linux business is growing. By 'core,' I mean that our non-Microsoft- related Linux business is growing. These are Suse Linux Enterprise Server subscriptions sold directly by the Novell sales force or by our channel partners, without any Microsoft certificates or Microsoft salespeople involved. However, the important thing is that our total revenue picture for Suse Linux Enterprise is growing, as our customers increasingly don't distinguish.

Science breakthough leads to new gourmet mushrooms

A forest-grown mushroom which is a well-known Northern Hemisphere delicacy is, for the first time this year, being grown under Gisborne pine forests in commercial quantities. It promises to add a new dimension to New Zealand cuisine but also represents a step along the way to the development of a flourishing new high-value food export industry.

Growth in 401(k)-type plans slows, EBRI study finds

The number of 401(k)-type plans and the number of participants in those plans, which had grown sharply through the 1990s, have grown at a slower pace in recent years, according to a study released by the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI). The study uses the most recent data (2005) from the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP), conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau.
