Study by Starlight

In Suning Wang's lab, stars do more than just twinkle, they luminesce! Suning Wang, MCIC at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario has been studying the luminescent behaviour of coordination compounds, particularly star-shaped co-ordination complexes. She has prepared several compounds that luminesce in the key blue region, which is important for applications in LEDs and as chemosensors. In a recent publication, Wang and her colleague R. Stephen Brown...

Letter: Family of man.(Letters)
Daily Post (Liverpool, England) ; Byline: Diels Alder A RECENT newspaper article reminded me of a conversation I had with a Liverpool barman, and a song by a Liverpool group. The newspaper asked are we English or British? The barman asked where did we come from, and the Liverpool group The Spinners sang about The Family of Man. The
Letter: Sustainable energy.(Letters)
Daily Post (Liverpool, England) ; Byline: Diels Alder CLLR David M Elderton's letter (Daily Post, December 29, 2006), was interesting. He says that fossil fuel and nuclear generation are the only truly sustainable answer. I wonder what he thinks will power his home when coal, oil, gas, peat, and nuclear fuel stocks have run out. I
API producers lower costs and become greener. (Process Technology).(active pharmaceutical ingredient)
Chemical Week ; Growing pressure from the authorities and ever more stringent regulations has led to greater emphasis on making chemical processes for pharma ingredients cleaner and greener. But pressure from regulators is only part of the story. It often turns out that by engineering--or re-engineering--processes
Detection of DNA probes by SERRS. (Analytical chemistry).(Brief Article)
Chemistry and Industry ; The importance of detecting specific DNA sequences for disease diagnosis has placed significant burdens on analysis, Graham, Fruk and Smith (Analyst 2003, 128, 692) have developed a surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) technique based on Diels Alder chemistry. The main advantage with
