Nonstick And Laser-safe Gold Aids Laser Trapping Of Biomolecules
Biophysicists long for an ideal material - something more structured and less sticky than a standard glass surface - to anchor and position individual biomolecules. Gold is an alluring possibility, with its simple chemistry and the ease with which it can be patterned. Unfortunately, gold also tends to be sticky and can be melted by lasers. Now, biophysicists at JILA have made gold more precious than ever - at least as a research tool - by creating nonstick gold surfaces and laser-safe gold nanoposts, a potential boon to laser trapping of biomolecules.

Alzheimer's Society Comment - Care Quality Commission Survey Reveals Malnutrition In Hospitals

Around one in five hospital patients who have trouble feeding themselves do not get help with meals, according to the survey released by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). "It"s appalling that thousands of vulnerable people who rely on the help of others to eat are being denied vital support. One quarter of all hospital beds are occupied by people with dementia, who may have difficulty swallowing; forget how to eat or stop being able to recognise food. Regular dementia training for nurses and social care staff can help tackle this issue and simple information sharing can illustrate how dementia affects everyday tasks. One in three people over 65 die with this devastating condition. Hospitals must act now and start making dementia a priority." Neil Hunt Chief Executive Alzheimer"s Society Alzheimer"s Society
