Abstract

This Report from Other Journals: Research Advances surveys recently published articles of interest to chemists. Topics surveyed include a report on how a dendrimer turns "inside out" in solvents of different polarities; findings about how gold nanoparticle growth can be used to measure glucose concentrations; and studies showing that nanomaterials can enter and irritate human cells.
