12february Scientists of SibFU develop gilded nanodisks for medical purposes Young scientists from SibFU together with their colleagues from FRC KSC SB RAS are developing a technology for creating multilayer gilded nanodisks for targeted drug delivery and treating malignant tumors using dip pen nanolithography (DPN).
08february SibFU scientists together with their colleagues from Mahatma Gandhi University (India) developed a nanocomposite material that is better at shielding electromagnetic noise than metal A Russian-Indian team of scientists has developed a nanocomposite material effective at shielding electromagnetic noise. Nanoparticles-based composites blend using multiwalled carbon nanotubes as conducting filler is two times more effective than conventional metal-based shielding materials. TASS: Science & Space portal reported on the development.
06february SibFU Researchers Develop a Biosensor Enhanced with Gold Nanoparticles for Express Diagnostics of Stress and Toxicological Pollution A group of researchers is in the process of developing a highly sensitive biosensor designed to detect toxic substances using bioluminescent inhibitory analysis as well as to monitor a biomarker for indicating stress and cancer, namely heat shock proteins 90 (Hsp90). The work is carried out at the School of Fundamental Biology and Biotechnology, Siberian Federal University, Krasnoyarsk, under the supervision of Dr. Rajeev Ranjan (India), postdoctoral researcher and senior researcher at the laboratory of bioluminescent biotechnology, and Dr. Valentina Kratasyuk, chair of biophysics (School of Fundamental Biology and Biotechnology SibFU) and leading researcher at the laboratory of bioluminescent biotechnology.
31january SibFU Scientists Discover the Most Health-beneficial Fish in the World SibFU researchers together with their colleagues from Institute of Biophysics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences proved that boganida char (Salvelinus boganidae), which is endemic to the lakes of Khatanga rvier basin and the lakes of Norilka-Pyasino system, has a record level of Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids among all known wild fish species.
30january Scientists Studied the Properties of Lead-Manganese Orthoborate, a Ferromagnetic Material A team from Kirensky Institute of Physics, Federal Research Center KSC SB RAS (IP SB RAS) together with their colleagues from Siberian Federal University (SFU) studied the properties of the ferromagnetic material PbMnBO4. They found out that the unique magnetic and thermal characteristics of this compound are determined by its specific magnetic structure. The work was supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research, and its results were published in the Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials.
23january SibFU Scientists Automated Electrolyte Composition Analysis for Aluminium Production A team from Siberian Federal University suggested a new method for automatic composition analysis of electrolyte samples from electrolysis baths. It will provide for more accurate technological control and increase the efficiency of aluminium production. The article of the scientists was published in the Crystals journal.
16january Scientists Discovered Stability in Hybrid Photoelectric Nanomaterials A team of Siberian scientists together with foreign colleagues calculated the parameters that influence the intensity of reaction between carbon nanotubes and phthalocyanines — complex nitrogen-containing compounds. Hybrid constructions based on them are considered as new materials for solar cell batteries, sensors, and optic devices. The work was published in the Applied Surface Science journal.
27december Digital clones: Scientists discover new way to perform diagnostics of technical equipment Siberian Federal University scientists have recently proposed using digital clones technology to perform online diagnostics of technical equipment and presented a new neurocomputing diagnostics model.
21december SibFU scientists proposed simple method of identifying sex of date palms Konstantin Krutovsky, the Head of SibFU Laboratory of Forest Genomics has revealed molecular markers that allow of a reliable identification of date palm sex at seedling stage in a joint research with the scientists of National Research Centre, Cairo (Egypt) and University of Gottingen (Germany).
