- Nanotechnology and viruses working together?
- You've certainly read that nanotechnology can be used for many applications. Now, according to Nanowerk, researchers from the University of South Carolina have demonstrated that one electrically conductive polymer called polyaniline PANi could be used in conjunction with plant viruses to develop new materials. The researchers have used the rod-like...

- Nanotechnology on the catwalk
- This event didnt take place in Paris or Milano, but at Cornell University during their Cornell Design League fashion show on April 21. Its now official: "nanotechnology has entered the fashion world." Fashion designers and fiber scientists have unified their efforts at Cornell to show a two-toned gold dress and...

- The world's longest carbon nanotube
- As you probably know, carbon nanotubes have very interesting mechanical, electrical and optical properties. But they are small. Now, researchers at the University of Cincinnati UC have developed a process to build extremely long aligned carbon nanotube arrays. Theyve been able to produce 18-mm-long carbon nanotubes which might be spun...

- Lighting the nanoworld with nanolamps
- An interdisciplinary team of researchers at Cornell University CU has built nanolamps. These extremely small light bulbs are made of light-emitting nanofibers about the size of a virus or the tiniest of bacteria. Using a technique called electrospinning, the researchers spun the fibers from a metallic element, the ruthenium, and...

- Teaching nanoscience to the blind
- Nanoscale objects are much too small for us to see them. So, according to educators at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, nanotechnology is a research field where blind students and sighted ones are equal. After all, "were all blind at the nanoscale," says a member of the educational team. Theyve built...

- Fingerprints + Super Glue = Nanofibers
- Chemical engineers at Penn State have accidentally discovered a new and versatile way to make nanofibers. During an experiment, one of the researchers "left his fingerprints on a piece of research equipment that had been secured with Super Glue and nanofibers appeared." And the team was able to reproduce this...

- Fantastic voyage into the heart
- According to the Journal of Clinical Investigation JCI, researchers from the Harvard Medical School have written a sequel to "Fantastic voyage," the 1966 sci-fi movie. By injecting self-assembling peptide nanofibers loaded with pro-survival factors into rats, they've showed that the animals could be protected from heart failures. So far, the...
