Zurich/New York, January 29, 2009. An ETH Zurich researcher has developed a computational method for predicting the structure of materials. He used it to solve the structure of a newly synthesized ...

A major step toward simpler drug development has been taken at the University of Gothenburg. In a new study, researchers have developed stable boron-fluorine compounds that make it possible to ...

A new technique has measured boron in individual cancer cells for the first time, enabling researchers to better understand how drugs act to kill tumors in some cancers. In an article in the Journal ...

Chemists from ETH Zurich have found a way to produce poorly soluble proteins by caging a uniquely reactive boron compound.

Foods rich in boron include fruits, vegetables, and nuts. 10 Supplemental boron is available in tablet and capsule form, but there are questions as to its solubility and bioavailability compared to ...

They're cute little shavers, and they could play a key role in the "small" revolution about us. They're boron nanowhiskers, the world's first such crystalline nanowires, made by chemists at Washington ...

Borotron HD050 is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with 5% elemental boron to provide extra shielding against neutron radiation. The combination of boron within a matrix of HDPE works well in ...
