The researchers, led by electrical engineer Stephen Chou, were able to increase the efficiency 175 percent by using a nanostructured “sandwich” of metal and…
Dr Greg Neely from the Garvan institute of Medical Research in Sydney and Professor Josef Penninger from the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna had…
The results, published online Dec. 3 in the journal Epilepsy Research, suggest the ketogenic diet and fasting can work in tandem to reduce seizures but appear…
Searching for substances from the deep sea to combat osteoporosis and other human common diseases is one of the objectives of the new European research project…
But this negative view of aging contrasts with results of a comprehensive study of 1,006 older adults in San Diego by researchers from the University of…
It’s well known how bacteria exposed to antibiotics for long periods will find ways to resist the drugs—by quickly pumping them out of their cells, for…
The amino acid polymer cyanophycin can serve as a new and sustainable feedstock for so far petroleum-based plastics or polyaspartic acid. Here we present for…
Plants possess many receptor-like kinases (RLKs) which specifically perceive different molecules such as phytohormones or pathogen associated molecular…
The outbursts, known as terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs), last only a few thousandths of a second, but their gamma rays rank among the highest-energy light…
Like their counterparts for desktop platforms, mobile browsers incorporate a range of security and cryptographic tools to provide a secure Web-browsing…
The model allows geologists to better understand how sedimentary rocks are related to one another in time and space and predict what types of rocks are located…
Consuming putrid food can be lethal as it allows bacterial pathogens to enter the digestive system. To detect signs of decay and thus allowing us and other…
Rather than liquid metal, it is a hydrogel, a mesh of organic molecules with many small empty spaces that can absorb water like a sponge. It qualifies as a…
“We were able to use synthetic molecules small enough to slip inside the cell and activate a chemical reaction controlling cell movement, bypassing most of the…
New observations published by oceanographers from the University of Gothenburg and the US may improve our ability to predict future changes in ice sheet mass….
“Since the countries within the region share this problem, we can work more closely together to draw up joint guidelines for reporting, diagnosis, treatment…
