Angewandte Chemie 21/2011 – The Worm that Turned
An overview of the latest issue of Angewandte Chemie
The Smaller the Better for Targeted Delivery
Nanoparticles smaller than those generally used for drug delivery show improved targeting and retention in tumors
Portable System for Automated Analysis of DNA or RNA
Portable and robust chip-based detection system for viral contaminants developed
Microbes as CO2 Conversion Catalysts
Bacteria that electrocatalytically convert CO2 to formate present a green alternative to traditional inorganic electrocatalysts
Towards a Cure for Diabetes
Discovery of mechanism that could convert cells into insulin-making cells could provide a permanent solution for diabetes
Near-IR Dyes for Solar Cells
Much of sunlight’s energy is wasted as it lies in the near-infrared (NIR) region. New, stable NIR dyes collect and use this energy
Highly Selective Alkene Dimerization
Rhodium immobilized on zeolites can dimerize ethene with high selectivity without the need for ligands
Real-Time Tracking of Oil Spills
Biosensor that uses antibodies detects marine pollutants and can provide real-time monitoring of oil spills to guide their clean-up
