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.
Our Secondary School editors work hard to distill all the JCE materials to produce a fraction of particular interest to high school teachers. We call it CLIC.
In recent years we have worked hard to better match our advertisers with our readers. When shopping for chemistry education materials, visit our advertisers' WWW sites first.
Take JCE along on your outreach missions. Copies of the Journal, guest access to JCE Online, our publications catalog, and more are available for your participants.
