Chemistry World September 9, 2009 Phillip Broadwith	Ultrathin catalysts on demand Korean chemists have taken acidic zeolite catalysts to the limit in terms of thickness - creating ultrathin nano-sheets that are efficient and long-lived catalysts for hydrocarbon cracking and other petrochemical applications.
Chemistry World September 9, 2009 Lewis Brindley	Daisy-chain polymers bring artificial muscles a step closer American chemists have made molecular 'daisy-chains' containing threaded rings that can be pulled taut or slackened by chemical stimuli.
Chemistry World September 8, 2009 James Urquhart	Hybrid nano material targets antibiotic resistant bacteria German researchers have developed a hybrid, light activated nanomaterial that can target, label and kill harmful antibiotic resistant bacteria such as Escherichia coli.
Chemistry World September 8, 2009 Ned Stafford	Tackling graffiti A new coating was developed at the Fraunhofer Institute and the Center of polymer and carbon materials of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Gliwice and Zabrze, Poland.
Chemistry World September 7, 2009	Bolt-on MOF catalysts Chemists in the US have shown that a class of hugely porous materials called metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can have catalytic functions bolted onto the structure after it has been constructed to produce efficient catalysts that can be easily recovered and cycled many times.
Chemistry World September 3, 2009 Phillip Broadwith	New kind of bond hidden in all animals After 25 years of research, US chemists have identified a unique chemical bond that holds together type IV collagen dimer molecules.
Chemistry World September 2, 2009 Nina Notman	Designing 3D DNA crystals US scientists have found that DNA triangles can be designed to self-assemble into three dimensional, macro-sized crystals.
Chemistry World September 2, 2009 Matt Wilkinson	Mechanised nanocapsules target drug delivery US researchers have developed a nano-sized drug delivery system that only releases its payload in specific pH conditions, a feature that could prove particularly useful for targeted delivery of cancer treatments.
Chemistry World September 2, 2009 Phillip Broadwith	Shining a light on DNA-binding drugs in living cells German researchers have used standard circular dichroism spectroscopy to probe interactions between drug molecules and DNA within living cells.
Chemistry World September 1, 2009 Tom Bond	Complex shines a light on its own creation A complex that spontaneously forms at a surface and then signals its own assembly has been created by scientists from the Netherlands.
