Some interesting articles:
- This week's cover story on food adulterants, by Marc Reisch (would have been nice to hear more about NMR of food.)
- Glenn Hess has a write-up of the MV Cape Ray's completed destruction of Syrian chemical weapons precursors.
- This story about dengue fever in Taiwan following a petrochemical pipeline explosion is interesting and a bit unexpected. (story by Jean-François Tremblay)
- Jyllian Kemsley covers proposed new definitions of the mole and the kilogram. Sounds like a long argument between chemists and physicists.
