Bringing the Mountain to Mohammed
Article Abstract:
Recent research supports the theory that DNA replication takes place in a fixed replication 'factory' through which DNA chromosomes threads themselves. The prior understanding was that the chromosomes were stationary and the replication machinery was mobile. The challenge to this theory is the complexity of the DNA duplication proces in eukaryotic cells.

Imaging Molecular Chemistry with Infrared Microscopy
Article Abstract:
Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopy combines microscopy with spectroscopy. It produces vivid spatial resolution in direct analysis, requiring no homogenization, extraction, or dilution.
