Study Waves Cautionary Flag About Nanotubes

Tiny tubes made of carbon atoms have been among the main ingredients of the nanotech revolution. But researchers have found that when injected into mice, nanotubes could behave in a way similar to the way asbestos fibers behave, forming lesions that lead to cancer.

Nanochemistry inside carbon nanotubes

(Nanowerk Spotlight) As far as test tubes go, it doesn't get any smaller than a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT). Among the wide range of interesting properties exhibited by SWCNTs is their capacity to encapsulate molecules within their quasi one-dimensional cavity. The confinement offered by the nanotube could serve as a nanoscale test tube to constrain a chemical reaction. This was demonstrated in principle back in 1998, when the coalescence of adjacent fullerenes was observed by transmission electron microscopy ("Encapsulated C60 in carbon nanotubes"). In the following years, scientists have extensively experimented with filling nanotubes with other fullerenes, atoms, molecules and, very recently, with organic molecules. Owing to their large variety with diverse chemical properties, the incorporated organic molecules can tune the

Wiretapping Powers Debate Still Unsettled

In a interconnected, packet-based global telecommunications world, just how far should the nation's spooks be allowed to live inside the nation's communication tubes in order to root out communications of spies and terrorists and how much should they be supervised by courts?

PID Supplies VersaPIXEL Light Sculpture for Rotunda - 07/07/2008

Projected Image Digital (PID) working closely with lighting design practice Mindseye Lighting has specified, supplied and installed 437 nodes of Element Labs VersaPIXEL, 437 custom polished, lacquered aluminium tubes and control for a dynamic light sculpture in the foyer of the iconic Rotunda in Birmingham. The distinct cylindrical Grade II Listed 266 ft tall high rise tower was designed by James A Roberts and originally completed in 1965 as a 25 storey office block.

Self-assembled artificial virus

The artificial virus self-assembles from a nanoribbon to form a double-layered protein sheet that sports short strands of RNA. The artificial virus inserts RNA into human cancer cells in test tubes. Once inside, the RNA interferes with the cells' malfunctioning DNA.

Sony: Get FED in 2009 Field Emission Display to make its debut.

Field Emission Display technology, developed by Sony and Motorola, will make its debut in 2009. While its initial use will be in the broadcast and medical arenas, the FED may also put ultra-flat tubes on the longterm wish lists of consumers.

Mesothelioma.com Urges Federal Government To Pass Pending Legislation Promoting Further Study Of Nanotechnology And Link To Cancer

Recent laboratory studies have shown a connection between exposure to nanotubes and the onset of pleural mesothelioma, a deadly cancer that – until now – had only been attributed to exposure to asbestos. Nanotubes are small, thin, multi-walled carbon-based tubes that, when inserted into the mesothelial walls of lab mice, result in similar biological effects of mice who have been injected with asbestos. The introduction of both nanotubes and asbestos into lab mice produced cancer-like lesions and granuloma, internal scar tissue common in cancer patients. These particular effects are prevalent in humans who suffer from asbestos-related disease, which take the lives of approximately 90,000 people each year.

Nanotubes get sorted

When single-walled carbon nanotubes are made, a mixture of both metallic and semiconducting nanotubes is produced. This is a problem for those trying to make electronic devices from nanotubes, who need pure samples of either semiconducting or metallic tubes (depending upon the application), not both. Now, researchers in the US and South Korea have a developed a new and simple technique that not only efficiently separates the two types of nanotube but also allows them to be patterned onto a substrate as thin films. These films could be used to make electronic devices with desirable properties, and could even replace silicon as the material of choice for integrated circuits.

Cloning Kits: More fun than a Chemistry Set?

Kits made by Qiagen and Invitrogen make copying biological molecules -- DNA and proteins -- easier than painting by numbers. Using them reminds me of playing with a chemistry set: There are clearly written instructions, each step is simple, and the chemicals come in tiny plastic tubes. But unfortunately, mixing those liquids will not cause their color to change or start a fire.
