Nanotechnology news, articles and information:

Untested nanoparticles showing up in thousands of consumer products

3/14/2011 - Since 2006, the use of nanoparticles in consumer products has skyrocketed by over 600 percent.

And that number is expected to...

Cinnamon may be a treasure of green nanotechnology

12/16/2010 - Gold nanoparticles, so incredibly tiny they can't be seen by the naked eye, are used in electronics, healthcare products and as pharmaceuticals in some cancer treatments. Unfortunately, the positive applications of gold nanoparticles come with a downside -- producing the nanoparticles requires extremely...

Artificial 'nano-food' could soon show up at a store near you

12/6/2010 - The scientific community has once again caught food-tampering fever. Recent reports indicate that food scientists are busy developing nanoparticle-modified (NM) food that could one day end up on your dinner plate -- and you may never even know about it. By shifting around nanoparticles, food scientists...

Big Pharma nanotechnology encodes pills with tracking data that you swallow

7/15/2010 - This article has been removed because the company it was originally about has changed their story and refused to respond to our inquiries about their nanotechnology. As a result, we can no longer quote sources for this story, so we've pulled it.

Food industry too secretive over nanoparticles

5/21/2010 - The food industry is being too secretive about the extent to which it has adopted nanotechnology, according to a report by the United Kingdom's House of Lords Science and Technology Committee. The industry is "very reluctant to put its head above the parapet and be open about research on nanotechnology,"...

Nanosolar Price Barrier Breakthrough Makes Solar Electricity Cheaper Than Coal

6/7/2008 - A new combination of nano and solar technology has made it possible for solar electric generation to be cheaper than burning coal.

Nanotech ingredients may expose food industry workers to unknown health risks

11/13/2006 - A study recently published by the British Occupational Hygiene Society suggests that workers who manufacture nanotech foods -- foods containing nanoparticles that are expected to behave in a specific manner -- may be exposed to unknown health risks. According to Andrew Maynard, article author and...

Heat treatment kills cancer cells

7/26/2006 - Testicular cancer patients have a higher survival rate than other cancer patients because the cancer cells are sensitive to body heat, leading the researchers at Johns Hopkins University to conclude heat therapy may be a viable treatment for cancer. The testes -- always a few degrees cooler than...

Emerging technology is not the answer to the world's social and economic problems

2/15/2006 - I've been reading news reports about how technology is advancing so rapidly that by the year 2050, we're supposed to be able to download our entire consciousness into our laptop computers. That right, just plug in your brain, and apparently you can download your memories and all the data in your head. Now,...

Nanotechnology Breakthrough Produces Metal Rubber; Flexible Metal Sheets Snap Back To Original Shape After Being Crumpled

8/6/2004 - A breakthrough in material science has produced a highly malleable metallic substance called "metal rubber." This has been developed by a company called NanoSonic, and is the product of nanotechnology fabrication processes. Metal rubber is very thin and can be bent, folded, or crumpled up, and then...

New nanotech risk revealed: runaway green goo could be created by nanobiotech gone bad

7/19/2004 - The potential horrors of nanotechnology seem to keep on coming. Not long after the mythical grey goo threat was dismissed by nanotechnology pioneers, a new threat appears: green goo created by the merging of nanotechnology and biotechnology -- nanobiotech. What is green goo? It's a runaway mass of...

The Top Ten Technologies: Where is Nanotechnology?

7/14/2004 - You probably noticed that nanotechnology isn't on the top 10 list. This is no oversight. Nanotech isn't on the list because nanotechnology has been so distorted by the popular press and researchers who add "nano" to their projects in order to get funding that, today, it essentially means "anything that's...

Nanotechnology has a dark side: nanoparticles shown to cause brain damage

5/28/2004 12:07:23 PM - Nanotechnology, it turns out, has a dark side that no one in the industry wants to talk about. New research suggests that nanoparticles could be harmful: fish exposed to nanoparticles duffered brain damage. Within 48 hours after being exposed to a very low concentration of nanoparticles, the...

Yet another example of researchers jumping on the "nano" bandwagon.

11/6/2003 10:55:10 AM - Wow, what an impressive way to include the word "nano" in a story that has nothing whatsoever to do with nanotechnology. This is all part of today's nano-craze, where everybody doing anything at all on a small scale attaches the word "nano" to their projects. This article talks about nano-bumps....

I Built A Billion Nanotech Devices Yesterday, And So Did You

11/3/2003 7:38:22 PM - I chose this article because it offers a well grounded summary of the fundamental issues facing nanotechnology. As the article states, the requirement for social acceptance of each new technology isn't that the technology works, it's that the society believes in it. Do people believe in nanotechnology?...

Nanotechnology: The Next Asbestos Debacle?

11/3/2003 7:28:26 PM - Amid all the hyper about nanotechnology, here's a dissenting opinion that might actually make a valid point: what happens when you inhale these tiny devices? As we've seen from recent memory, mankind seems to be rather skilled at inventing and manufacturing tiny fibers or particles that, when inhaled,...
