Results with small, electrically charged cyanide ions and water molecules reveal that water zips around ions to a greater extent than expected. The findings improve our understanding of a chemical interaction important in environmental and atmospheric sciences. http://www.huliq.com/11/85794/temperature-determines-which-molecule-rocks-out#comments Science molecules temperatures water Thu, 03 Sep 2009 07:06:50 -0500 harminka 85794 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/82680/giant-rydberg-atom-molecules-discovered A group of University of Oklahoma researchers led by Dr. James P. Shaffer, Homer L. Dodge Department of Physics and Astronomy, have discovered giant Rydberg molecules with a bond as large as a red blood cell. Determining how Rydberg molecules interact is important because Rydberg atoms are a key ingredient in atom based quantum computation schemes. http://www.huliq.com/11/82680/giant-rydberg-atom-molecules-discovered#comments Science Astronomy molecules quantum computing Wed, 24 Jun 2009 13:22:56 -0500 harminka 82680 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/81101/new-found-molecules-may-block-hiv-spread Rice University's Andrew Barron and his group, working with labs in Italy, Germany and Greece, have identified specific molecules that could block the means by which the deadly HIV virus spreads by taking away its ability to bind with other proteins. http://www.huliq.com/11/81101/new-found-molecules-may-block-hiv-spread#comments Health HIV HIV virus molecules Tue, 19 May 2009 12:11:16 -0500 harminka 81101 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/76449/comparison-microbial-communities-offers-clues-body-weight-differences In terms of diversity and sheer numbers, the microbes occupying the human gut easily dwarf the billions of people inhabiting the Earth. Numbering in the tens of trillions and representing many thousands of distinct genetic families, this microbiome, as it's called, helps the body perform a variety of regulatory and digestive functions, many still poorly understood. http://www.huliq.com/11/76449/comparison-microbial-communities-offers-clues-body-weight-differences#comments Health body weight microbes molecules Tue, 20 Jan 2009 12:33:37 -0600 harminka 76449 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/76442/new-imaging-method-lets-scientists-see-cell-molecules-more-clearly Scientists have always wanted to take a closer look at biological systems and materials.

One of their most useful qualities, however - the ability to bend rather than break when put under stress - is also one of the most puzzling. http://www.huliq.com/11/73734/fast-molecular-rearrangements-hold-key-plastic%E2%80%99s-toughness#comments Science molecules plastics Fri, 28 Nov 2008 07:53:51 -0600 harminka 73734 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/73503/sweet-molecule-could-lead-us-alien-life Scientists have detected an organic sugar molecule that is directly linked to the origin of life, in a region of our galaxy where habitable planets could exist.
