Energy Security: How to Tackle the Old-new Global Concern
Azzuni and Breyer propose a generic definition of energy security. A definition that covers all aspects of the energy security concept with taking into consideration the notion of sustainability and vulnerability was developed.
Laser Spectroscopy To Diagnose Hip Problems
A team of scientist from the Center for Optical and Electromagnetic Research in China developed a new laser spectroscopy method measuring gas to detect necrosis in the hip joints.
Noble Metal Nanocrystals with a Clean Surface
Chuanbo Gao and co-workers present a mild, robust and effective strategy to remove capping ligands from noble metal nanocrystals for surface-enhanced Raman scattering and catalytic applications.
Celebrating 90 Years of Steel Research
In its 90th year of publication, steel research international welcomes you to look back on some important developments in the area of steel research as presented by authors from science and industry.
Natural Fatty Acids as Gating Materials for Near-Infrared-Triggered Drug Release
Natural fatty acid eutetic mixtures offer an inexpensive, chemically stable and biocompatible gating material alternative for NIR-triggered drug release nanoparticles for cancer therapy.
Using Laserbeams To Safely Operate on Teeth
A team of German scientist developed a new laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy approach that can differentiate between hard and soft tissue in the mouth region and could help improve surgical dental treatment.
Regulation of Germ Cell Development by Intercellular Signaling in the Mammalian Ovarian Follicle
Unlike all other cells in the body, which age and eventually die, a female’s oocytes can give rise to a new individual. Oocytes have, in a sense, achieved immortality. In order to reach this exalted state, each oocyte undergoes a complex program of differentiation within the ovary before it is ovulated and fertilized.
Multicolor, Fluorescent Supercapacitor Fibers Light Up the Night
A novel family of colorful fluorescent supercapacitor fibers allows for continuous energy storage in flexible systems used in the dark.
Anisogel: A New Hybrid Hydrogel for Tissue Regenerative Therapy
A new type of hybrid hydrogel for tissue regenerative therapy—Anisogel—is developed by Abdolrahman Omidinia-Anarkoli, Laura De Laporte, and co-workers from the Leibniz Institute for Interactive Materials in Aachen, Germany. This low-invasive hydrogel is promising for healing body tissues that consist of an aligned architecture, such as the heart, kidney, muscles, and nerves.
