Micro Bubble Tech Launches Nanotechnology Products for the Energy Market: Carbon Nano Tube (CNT) Battery and M-Fuel Sep 10, 2009
MBT has also developed a nanotechnology process that blends non-miscible liquids (oil and water) on a submicron level in order to create a new fuel product, the EM-Fuel. The EM Fuel has been tested over the past two years on internal and external combustion engines that burn kerosene, diesel, bio-diesel, waste oil, and heavy "bunker" oils.

Bacteria Take On Completely New Flat Shape To Fit Through Nanoslits Sep 9, 2009
In even narrower submicron channels the bacteria stopped swimming, and an unexpected effect took place: The bacteria were able to make their way through ultra-narrow passageways in another manner, that is by growing and dividing. The researchers found that this way, E. coli bacteria could squeeze through narrow slits that were only half their own diameter in width. (Science Daily)
