studies of intra-cellular biology. Northwestern‘s joint development of trace element imaging methodo- logies with the DOE Office of Science‘s Advanced Photon Source (APS), Argonne‘s synchrotron radiati- on facility, informs the study and potential treatment of cancer, neurological disorders and other diseases and conditions involving the accumulation of metals within cells.
A recent addition to Xradia‘s UltraSPX™ family of non-invasive 3D X-ray microscopes, the Bionano- probe represents the only imaging solution able to deliver high-resolution X-ray trace element mapping and tomography of cryogenically preserved samples down to 30 nanometers. Dr. Gayle Woloschak, Pro- fessor of Radiation Oncology at the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center, Northwestern Uni- versity Feinberg School of Medicine, believes these combined capabilities will uniquely advance resear- chers‘ understanding of what occurs inside cells.
ENVE used Zyvex Technologies’ nano-enhanced carbon fiber technology called Arovex, which is a carbon nanotube and graphene engineered com- posite material that uses the proprietary Kentera technology to create chemical bonds on the carbon nanotubes. It provides an advantage in toughness without compromising strength. It also protects from fracture damage. ENVE has an exclusive license for this advanced technology for cycling applications.

yvex Technologies, and ENVE Composites announced an exclusive partnership to provide
a bicycle rim specifically for downhill mountain bi- king that uses the latest advanced materials compri- sed of nano-enhanced carbon fiber. This new bicycle rim gives a significant competitive advantage to the downhill cycling market as proven during the last year in development and testing. The ENVE DH rim provides performance benefits to all downhill cyclists including those that compete at the highest levels of World Cup racing.
Novaled, a recognized leader in research, deve- lopment and commercialization of technologies and materials that enhance the performance of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and other organic electronics, announced a new class of n- doped electron transport layer (ETL) materials for OLED TV and OLED mobile displays. By pai- ring either of its two new air-stable dopants with either of its two new host molecules, Novaled can achieve the optimum combination of efficiency, voltage and lifetime for a specific display applica- tion. This innovative approach results in materials that are air-stable and can double the lifetime of the display compared to the previous OLED stack. Novaled will highlight its recent advances in OLED display and OLED lighting at Display Week 2012, June 3 to 8, 2012, in Boston, USA.
