The electrical properties of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of organic molecules on metal surfaces have gained particular interest due to their potential applications in nanometer-scaled electronics systems [1]. Understanding the transport mechanism through these thin molecular films as well as the dependence of the conductivity on the molecular length and structure, the applied load and the ...

The concentrations of the enviromental pollutant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin were measured in the blood of 44 infertile women with endometriosis (study group), and in 35 age-matched women with tubal infertility (control group). Eight women with endometriosis (18%) were dioxin positive as compared to one woman (3%) in the controls (P = 0.04). Although the concentrations of dioxin did not...
