Cavitation gets steam in a spin

Article Abstract:

Hydro Dynamics has developed a pump that uses shock waves and cavitation within the water to produce the levels of heat needed. The Hydrosonic Pump is being promoted as a non-explosive device, as it uses mechanical energy and therefore does not pose a fire risk. It is normally made up of a rugged steel rotor fully encircled by a steel cylindrical housing with two circular plates at each end. The rotor can be driven by any available power source which meets its input requirements. Water is converted into steam, hot water or a mixture of the two.

From Chile to cheese country

Article Abstract:

A postdoctoral fellow from Chile tells about experiences in the United States, first as a graduate student in the Notre Dame biochemistry program and later at the Medical College of Wisconsin. She works to elucidate at the molecular level the function of mevalonate kinase, an important enzyme in biosynthesis of polyisoprene and cholesterol and after braving teaching a general chemistry freshman lab has found she wants to teach as well as do research.

The nascent paperless laboratory

Article Abstract:

An overview is presented on the use of electronic data storage and devices to reduce paper-based record keeping in science and medical laboratories. The article focuses on electronic laboratory notebooks, which employ Internet-based technology to manage information, automate certain analytical tasks, perform chemometrics and link researchers with additional resources.
