Today, much of the product development conducted in pharmaceutical company laboratories is carried out in microflow systems that allow a total conversion of reactant to product that is rapid, efficient and selective on a scale of 1-100 g for activity testing. The past few years have seen several groups seek to develop electrolysis cell designs that can be used in such equipment. The Southampton group have attempted to develop cells that combine good performance with an appearance similar to other equipment used for routine microfiow synthesis. This led to a cell based on a single-patterned microchannel, parallel... 

Carbon-supported metal nanoparticles are often employed as electrocatalysts in low-temperature, proton-exchange membrane, fuel cells. In the Southampton group, in-situ XRD has been used as a probe for both the composition and particle size as a function...

One further attraction of the Raman technique for vibrational studies is that water of bonded OH groups does not cause obscuration of the spectrum but, of course, Raman spectroscopy is useless for studies on water in polymers. At Southampton, excellent spectra of numerous solid mono-, di-, and trisaccharides have been recorded as well as aqueous solutions of some species. It is quite probable that Raman spectra of biologically interesting polymers may be produced shortly8. The ability to examine samples in aqueous regimes obviously has its attractions to the biochemist 1...
