| A group of scientists tried to inject into tobacco plants bacteria for to produce solar cells, electricity.
Tobacco plants could help the world to produce fossil fuels,best newport cigarettes website178, according to scientists from the University of California, Berkeley. Scientists used bacteria to generate the building blocks for artificial photovoltaic and photochemical cells. This method could lead to cheap, temporary and biodegradable solar cells. “It’s very difficult to recreate photosynthesis, because the precision of each structure is very important, and it’s very hard to pick up one molecule and put it where you want it to be,” said Angela Belcher,newport menthol cigarettes, a researcher at MIT who uses viruses to build batteries and other structures. Trapped within the plant, the small structures don’t produce electricity or chemicals. To get at the synthetic chromophores,newport cigarettes wholesale, scientists would have to harvest the plants,best newport cigarettes website180,hotsale marlboro cigarettes,best newport cigarettes website175, chop them up, and then extract the structures. Dissolved in a liquid solution, the structures are pulverized over a glass or plastic substrate coated with molecules that protect the rods to the plastic. |
