Improved methods for breaking down cellulose nanofibers are central to cost-effective biofuel production.

Improved methods for breaking down cellulose nanofibers are central to cost-effective biofuel production and the subject of new research from Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) and the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center (GLBRC). Scientists are investigating the unique properties of crystalline cellulose nanofibers to develop novel chemical pretreatments and designer ...

In the focus: New regulator discovered for information transfer in the brain

The protein mSYD1 has a key function in transmitting information between neurons. This was recently discovered by the research group of Prof Peter Scheiffele at the Biozentrum, University of Basel. The findings of the investigations have been published in the scientific journal “Neuron”.

Synapses are the most important sites of information transfer between neurons. The functioning of our brain is based on the ability of the synapses to release neurotransmitter substances in a fraction of a second, so that neuronal signals can be rapidly propagated and integrated.

Peter Scheiffele’s team has now identified ...

In the focus: Ion ping pong reveals forces in atomic nuclei

An international team of scientists has succeeded in determining the binding energies of exotic atomic nuclei by use of a multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer.

As reported in the journal Nature, important conclusions about the nature of the forces between the protons and neutrons in nuclei can be drawn by comparing the experimental results and new theoretical values. The difficult measurements were made possible by an extension to the precision experiment ISOLTRAP at the European ...

In the focus: Siemens and LanzaTech partner to transform steel mill off-gases into bioethanol

- Biological fermentation process converts CO and CO2 into bioethanol and platform chemicals

- Process uses energy contained in steel plant off-gases

- Ten-year co-operation to develop and market integrated environmental solutions for the steel industry worldwide

Siemens Metals Technologies and LanzaTech have signed a ten-year co-operation agreement to develop and market integrated environmental solutions for the steel industry worldwide. The collaboration will utilize the ground-breaking fermentation technology developed by LanzaTech transforming carbon-rich off-gases generated by the steel industry into low carbon bioethanol and other platform chemicals. ...

In the focus: Printing Tiny Batteries

Novel application of 3D printing could enable the development of miniaturized medical implants, compact electronics, tiny robots, and more

3D printing can now be used to print lithium-ion microbatteries the size of a grain of sand. The printed microbatteries could supply electricity to tiny devices in fields from medicine to communications, including many that have lingered on lab benches for lack of a battery small enough to fit the ...
