#Cellular mechanism for how the body regulates glucose transport discovered UT Southwestern Medical center scientists have gleaned a key cellular mechanism of how the body adjusts glucose levels,
'Glucose transporter type 1, called GLUT1, transports glucose across the cell membrane of most cells in the body and is especially important in the uptake of glucose by the brain and blood vessels,
This addition, called phosphorylation, increases the amount of GLUT1 present in the cell membrane and thereby increases the rate of glucose transport.
and transport properties of the"intermediate state"in lithium-ion batteries--key to understanding the mechanisms of charge
#A diode a few atoms thick shows surprising quantum effect A quantum mechanical transport phenomenon demonstrated for the first time in synthetic,
The quantum transport effect, called negative differential resistance (NDR), was observed when a voltage was applied to structures made of one-atom-thick layers of several layered materials known as Van der waals materials.
and Bioengineering have designed a nanoparticle transport system for gene delivery that destroys deadly brain gliomas in a rat model,
Rabiei first developed the strong, lightweight metal foam for use in transportation and military applications. But she wanted to determine
"We were surprised to see transport rates approaching the'holy grail'number of a billion water molecules per channel per second,
These new phenomena rely on the transport of thermal energy, in contrast to the conventional application of magnetic fields, providing a new,
(NW) transport channel, and determined spin lifetimes and corresponding spin diffusion lengths in these nanoscale spintronic devices.
and the green line is the silicon nanowire transport channel. The bright dot on the end of the nanowire is used the gold nanoparticle to seed the nanowire growth.
because its intrinsic properties promote spin transport, explains principal investigator Dr. Olaf van Erve. Realization of spin-based Si NW devices requires efficient electrical spin injection and detection,
a spintronic circuit needs a well-controlled source of spin-polarized electrons that are injected into a transport channel material,
it requires a transport channel material with long spin lifetimes because (polarized) spins fade away (i e.,
, become randomized) and lose their information during transport, unlike electric charges. Compared to manipulating populations of moving electrons through a conventional semiconductor,
and so is Alq3 for spin transport. Project Leader Christina Hacker elaborates: obalt surfaces are really interesting for electronic applications.
which is critical in electronic transport through the SAM and into the organic semiconductor. This finding suggests that the rapid oxidation of cobalt does not necessarily have to be a limiting factor in organic spintronics.
we need spin injection, spin transport, and spin detection, Jang explains. ur latest work with SAMS only concerns the interface relevant to the spin injection part.
The next step should be to find a better medium for spin transport since only short-distance couple of hundred nanometersf spin transport has been demonstrated in organic materials such as Alq3 so far.
There have been studies suggesting that long-distance spin transport in organics is achievable. Our grand plan is to make a whole device and show really long-distance (in this tiny device,
over a micrometer) spin transport through an organic semiconductor. r
#Expert: Editing stem cell genes will evolutionizebiomedical research Applying a dramatically improved method for ditinggenes to human stem cells,
and could be important for future device technologies as well as for fundamental studies of electron transport in molecular nanostructures.
In earlier studies, researchers have examined single-electron transport in molecular transistors using top-down approaches, such as lithography and break junctions.
Dr. Piet Brouwer, a physicist at FUB and expert in quantum transport theory, said, his intriguing behavior goes beyond the established picture of charge transport through a gated quantum dot.
Instead we developed a generic model that accounts for the coupled electronic and orientational dynamics of the molecule.

#Uber backlash: taxi drivers'protests in Paris part of global revolt ot chased by a mob of taxi drivers who threw rocks,
The pairing has produced now a single super-channel optical transport network (OTN) card with a transmission speed of a pretty hefty 1tbps, running along Proximus'optical backbone.
