Chemistry World July 13, 2010 Lewis Brindley	Magnetic micro-machines made from liquid iron Chinese researchers have made microscopic springs and turbines by shining light through ferrofluids - liquids containing iron nanoparticles.
Chemistry World July 11, 2010 Simon Hadlington	Elusive terminal uranium nitride found The compound is important because its ceramic state, uranium mononitride, is a candidate for nuclear fuels of the future.
Chemistry World July 11, 2010 Mike Brown	Make some noise for smart fibres Fibres made of multiple materials could function as communication transceivers, emitting an electrical response or sound when the fibres are put under stress or subject to acoustic waves of a range of frequencies, say researchers in the US.
Chemistry World July 8, 2010 Sarah Houlton	Antibodies spark HIV vaccine hopes These cross-reactive broadly neutralising antibodies bound to and neutralised more than 90 per cent of the HIV strains they were tested against.
Chemistry World July 8, 2010 Phillip Broadwith	Flattening carbon UK researchers have managed to synthesise a molecule with an almost planar four-coordinate carbon atom bonded to two lithium atoms and bulky organic ligands.
Chemistry World July 7, 2010 Hayley Birch	MicroRNA's May Hold Key to Cocaine Addiction Paul Kenny at the Scripps Research Institute in Florida thought microRNAs, which are known to influence the activity of genes in multiple circuits in the brain, might play a regulatory role.
Chemistry World July 5, 2010 Jon Cartwright	Imaging technique sees conversion of biomass to sugar The technique, called stimulated Raman scattering microscopy, is better than others because it can give quantitative readings of the species present.
Chemistry World July 4, 2010 Hayley Birch	DNA sticks at flick of switch A new technique that sticks individual DNA molecules to a gold surface works at the flick of an electrochemical switch.
Chemistry World July 2010 Hayley Birch	Special Report: Health breakthroughs of the decade New discoveries have been made with cancer vaccines, genomics, statin drugs, allosteric modulators, and RNA interference during the last decade.
Chemistry World July 2010	Roadblock on memory lane It might sound like science fiction, but researchers are taking steps towards developing a drug that could erase the fear associated with traumatic events.
