Chemistry World March 1, 2007 Richard Van Noorden	World's Blackest Material Unveiled Researchers have unveiled the least shiny material ever made, a chunk of pure darkness that has the most anti-reflective coating known to science.
Chemistry World February 28, 2007 Richard Van Noorden	First Graphene Transistors May Herald Future of Electronic Chips Researchers claim to have created the world's first practical transistors cut from ribbons of graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms.
Chemistry World February 28, 2007 Simon Hadlington	Individual Atoms' Chemical ID Revealed Researchers have demonstrated for the first time that atomic force microscopy can be used to reveal the chemical identity of individual atoms on a surface at room temperature.
Chemistry World February 27, 2007 Jon Evans	Molecular pH Sensor Inspired by Relay Runners Chemists have taken inspiration from relay runners to create a molecular version of a conventional glass pH electrode. Their molecular sensor can measure pH over a wide range and should allow scientists to begin measuring pH levels in microscopic volumes, such as within individual cells.
Chemistry World February 26, 2007 Lionel Milgrom	Nanotubes Sprout Fullerene Buds A new carbon-based hybrid material is set to make an impact on the microelectronics industry. Christened 'nanobuds', the material consists of single-walled carbon nanotubes with football-shaped fullerenes stuck on their outer surfaces.
Reactive Reports Issue 62 David Bradley	Robert Parker The appointed Managing Director of Royal Society of Chemistry Publishing discusses the future of chemistry publishing
Reactive Reports Issue 62	Take the Volcanic Fast-track to Nanotube Production Igneous rock from the Mount Etna volcanic eruptions could be used to mass produce carbon nanotubes, according to researchers.
Reactive Reports Issue 62	Alumination at last! More powerful solid rocket fuel could be the product of research into a new class of compounds containing aluminum and hydrogen compounds, according to an international research team.
Reactive Reports Issue 62	How Wine Producers Might Save Asthma Sufferers from Sulfites Ozone could replace sulfites as the preservative of choice in a new asthma-friendly approach to wine production. The approach could also help boost antioxidant levels in the final product.
Chemistry World February 23, 2007 Michael Gross	X Labelling Springs a Surprise In stark contrast to expectations, researchers have found that the active versions of genes on X chromosomes are more heavily methylated than the inactive versions.
