How nanoparticle toxicity (i.e. nanotoxicology) affects the health and environment of Europeans is a concern that many researchers are currently investigating.
Researchers from across Europe have united to build the largest quantum key distribution network ever built.
The equipment used for biomedical research is shrinking, but the physical properties of the fluids under investigation are not changing.

The three-year program is designed to accelerate commercialization of an ultra-thin protective film --more than 3,000 times thinner than a human hair -- that prevents moisture from degrading the performance of thin-film PV modules, a key challenge in the past.
Clemson scientist Stephen Klaine has been awarded two $400,000 EPA grants to study a subject that did not exist a decade ago. Klaine is part of the young field of nano-ecotoxicology: the investigation of the impact that nanoparticles have on the environment.
What do the mystery of how proteins fold, the unexpected behavior of nanoparticles, and the key to making hydrogen fuel cells have in common? All can be investigated with beams of slow-moving neutrons?and scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) took a week this summer to teach the next generation of scientists how to use these beams to explore innovative materials.
A tiny grid pattern has led materials scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Institute of Solid State Physics in Russia to an unexpected finding?the surprisingly strong and long-range effects of certain electromagnetic nanostructures used in data storage.
The tiny, nanoscale materials?quantum dots?Mathew Maye and his research team create in his Syracuse University chemistry laboratory could potentially make an important contribution to the nation?s ongoing quest to become energy independent.

Decades of research have failed to conclusively crack the mystery of how amyloid-associated diseases like Alzheimer's do so much damage, but new findings by researchers at RIKEN suggest that part of the answer may lie in the structural rearrangements observed in plaque-forming proteins.
Mit dem Ziel, ein einfaches und minimal-invasives Testverfahren für das Parkinson-Syndrom zu entwickeln, haben sich Forscher des Bochum-Dortmunder Verbundprojektes "ParkCHIP" im Spitzentechnologiewettbewerb "Hightech.NRW" durchgesetzt.

IVAM Research has published the second edition of the "Nano Guide of Europe", a database which gives users an overview of what Europe's suppliers have to offer.
A group of researchers at the Technical University of Denmark have conducted a systematic analysis of 31 recently published reports and articles which discuss the environmental, health, and safety aspects of nanomaterials. They find that serious knowledge gaps pervade nearly all areas of basic nanotechnology EHS knowledge. These knowledge gaps or areas of uncertainty were ranked to how often they were included in the screened literature. The analysis found that the following areas in particular have been highly cited as important knowledge gaps within the field: the lack of reference materials and standardization; environmental fate and behavior; human and environmental toxicity; test methods to assess, particularly, the effects, and commercial or industrial-related aspects (e.g. life cycle assessments).
A collaborative effort between researchers from the London Centre for Nanotechnology, King's College London and UCL Chemistry has led to the first measurements of the electrostatic surface potential of individual DNA and avidin molecules with nanometre resolution using Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in air.
Malvern Instruments online web seminar series introducing triple detection techniques for size exclusion chromatography/gel permeation chromatography (SEC/GPC) provides information for experts and beginners alike.
How nanoparticle toxicity affects the health and environment of Europeans is a concern that many researchers are currently investigating. Rising to the challenge is the NHECD ('Nano health-environment commented database') project, funded under the EU's Seventh Framework Programme to the tune of EUR 1.45 million. The project partners are seeking to create a critical and commented database on the health, safety and environmental impact of nanoparticles.
