Chemistry World April 24, 2007 Simon Hadlington	Researchers 'See' Catalyst Molecules at Work Researchers have for the first time 'watched' in real time single molecules of catalyst participating in a reaction at a solid-liquid interface.
Bio-IT World April 2007 Vicki Glaser	Software Solutions for Medicinal Chemistry Driven by advances in chemical synthesis, instrumentation, and high-throughput and high-content screening technology, medicinal chemistry's transition from an art to a science is benefiting from a wealth of new software products, spanning both bio- and cheminformatics.
Chemistry World April 23, 2007 Tom Westgate	Green Tea's Secret Tunneling Revealed Scientists have used quantum mechanics to work out why green tea is good for you. The health benefits of the brew are all down to a quirk of the quantum world known as tunneling, they say.
Chemistry World April 23, 2007 Richard Van Noorden	Hirsch Index Ranks Top Chemists Living chemists have been ranked in a league table based on what some argue is the fairest measure of research achievement ever devised.
Chemistry World April 20, 2007 Killugudi Jayaraman	Pesticide Filter Debuts in India A domestic water filter that uses metal nanoparticles to remove dissolved pesticide residues is about to enter the Indian market. Its developers believe it is the first product of its kind in the world to be commercialized.
Chemistry World April 19, 2007 Lewis Brindley	Superhard Material Made at Ambient Pressure Inorganic chemists in the U.S. have synthesized a material that rivals the hardness of diamond, without needing to use extremely high pressure.
Chemistry World April 19, 2007 John Bonner	Storm in a Buttercup Botanists have spent 70 years puzzling over the identity of the chemical agent responsible for initiating the flowering process in plants. That mystery has now been solved by two separate research groups in Germany and Japan.
Reactive Reports Issue 64 David Bradley	A Chemist's Thoughts on Computational Power and the Future of 'The Chemical Web' Interview with Steven Bachrach, a chemist with a flare for physics.
Reactive Reports Issue 64 David Bradley	Proteins' Web of Intrigue An investigative look into what makes spider silk so strong.
Chemistry World April 18, 2007 Richard Van Noorden	Beating Nanorods Mimic Lung Defense Hair-like polymer nanorods, which wiggle and bend under magnetic fields, are helping researchers understand how the lung defends itself against invaders. The rods could also provide a new way of mixing fluids in lab-on-a-chip devices.
