The process requires the works — a special printer and a special type of paper — but the results are intriguing. After 16 to 24 hours the “ink,” once printed clearly on the page fades. This could have numerous uses such as being used for memos, restaurant menus, and much more. After the “ink” fades, the paper can be reused.

RNL Bio says that its new cream, derived from stem cells of human placentas, will encourage faster regeneration of skin cells than its predecessors. Rather than using liquefied placentas, boiled to about 220 degrees (F), RNL Bio uses the active cells of natural placenta that are more efficient in stimulating the skin. While the cream will not contain actual stem cells, human proteins found in the cells will be used.

Details of an entirely new kind of electronic device, which could make chips smaller and far more efficient, have been outlined by scientists.

The new components, described by scientists at Hewlett-Packard, are known as “memristors”.

Another nanoscale anti-cancer device has arrived on the growing scene. Similar to MIT’s sticky nanoparticles, the new treatment would involve a sticky “nanoworm.” The particles, developed jointly by scientists at the Universities of California at San Diego and Santa Barbara along with MIT, resembles a gummi worm made of small spheres.

The worms are made from spherical nanoparticles of iron oxide, joined together and coated with a polymer derived from dextran. Each worm consists of eight nanoparticles and measures approximately 30 nanometers in length. That makes them about three million times smaller than their earthworm brethren.

Scientists have devised a laser that has a record setting combination of high speed and short pulses coupled with a high average power. The laser is being eyed for use in astronomy to aid scientists in finding Earthlike planets by acting as an ultra-precise frequency comb.

Some very complex, but very important research breakthroughs have recently taken place at the labs of Alexander Pines and David Wemmer at Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley. The new breakthroughs revolve around the process of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRIs are valuable diagnostic tools, helping to reveal detailed information on neurological, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and oncological structure and health. This in turn allows doctors to diagnose tumors and various other maladies.

It looks like a cigarette, it tastes like a cigarette, it smokes like a cigarette, but it isn’t a cigarette, it contains no tobacco, and the “smoke” is just vapour. Containing state of the art micro-electronic technology this re-chargeable e-cigarette produces a real smoking experience without any of the deeply unpleasant side-effects of tobacco.
