Russian scientists have created a material with antibacterial properties Russian scientists have created a durable and non-toxic polymer coating that can destroy 99.999% of pathogens. Research supported by a grant from the Russian science Foundation (RNF) and published in the journal Materials science and Engineering. Today, a very popular so-called “cationic antiseptics”, for example, Miramistin, chlorhexidine, octenisept. They are not toxic to humans, and their aqueous solutions possess excellent bactericidal activity. In the study, the authors obtained water-insoluble polymers and coatings on their basis, which operate on a similar mechanism and also possess a high bactericidal activity.

Expensive cancer drugs were useless Despite significant investment and innovation, new cancer drugs approved in the last ten years, may not influence survival of patients.

Russian scientists have learned to control a levitating drops MOSCOW, 9 November. /TASS/. Scientists from Tyumen state University learned to control drip clusters that hover above the surface of the water, reported the press service of the TSU. According to scientists, the creation and study of levitating droplets, allows to investigate the chemical processes that occur in very small volumes of liquid. Drip the cluster is a cluster of very small droplets with a diameter of about 1/20 of a millimeter, which occur in the evaporation of the water and levitated above the surface at the height approximately equal to the diameter of drops. Thus microdroplets are arranged in a hexagonal single-layer structure, forming a “flat fog”. First drip cluster created by Russian scientists in 2004.
