• Hydrogen fuel for thought

  New research by Rice University scientists suggests that a class of material known as metallacarborane could store hydrogen at or better than benchmarks set by the United States Department of Energy (DOE) Hydrogen Program for 2015. The work could receive wide attention as hydrogen comes into play a more

• From Lab to Fab – Further Growth in Organic and Printed Electronics

  The organic and printed electronics industry continues to grow. Numerous companies have started production. Especially the use of technologies capable of mass-production, such as printing technologies, opens new markets for thin, light-weight, flexible electronics. Wolfgang Mildner, Chairman o more

• Half a Century of Chromatography with Agilent and Predecessors
  

  Twsett originated the chromatography with his work about the separation of chlorophyll in 1903. For some time it was relatively quite around this new technology. Exceptions were the workings of Kuhn and Lederer (1931) as well as of Hesse (1936 and 1942). A break through succeeded to E. Cremer during the 40ies, but hardly considered caused by the war events, what however in the years 1950/51 by the conception of the gas chromatography suddenly changed and involved a rapid development more

• Milestones in graphical bioinformatics

  After reviewing the field of graphical bioinformatics, we have selected two dozen of the most significant publications that represent milestones of graphical bioinformatics. These publications can be viewed as forming the backbone of graphical bioinformatics, the branch of bioinformatics that init more

• Die Geschichte der Vakuumtechnik

  Abstract Ausgehend von ersten Gedanken über die Existenz der Leere und der Verneinung einer solchen wird vom philosophischen Weltbild der Antike der Bogen zur modernen Vakuumtechnik gespannt. Mit den ersten Experimenten im 17. Jahrhundert wurde die Tür zur modernen Vakuumtechnologie aufgestoßen. more

• 125 Years of Chemistry in the Mirror of “Angewandte”

  Abstract This Review investigates the development of Angewandte Chemie since the founding of the journal in 1887 and analyzes how its content reflects the changes in chemical research over these 125 years. Although Angewandte Chemie was originally founded as a journal for applied (“angewandte”)— more
