The novel antennas may be useful in ever-shrinking and proliferating wireless systems such as emergency communications devices, micro-sensors and portable…
But actually, being able to change intonation in speech – as in upspeak – may be a sign of superior empathy?A new study in the journal PLoS ONE finds that…
Individually, lankacidin and lankamycin, two antibiotics produced naturally by the microbe streptomyces, are marginally effective in warding off pathogens,…
Microfluidics is the behavior of fluids at the microscale level. A relatively new technology, it had already shown promise in revolutionizing certain…
The study, published this month in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, examined nearly 100 commercially available diets with weight…
A. flavus and some other Aspergillus species can produce troublesome toxins known collectively as aflatoxins. Hua has received a patent for use of the yeast as…
Growing at a rate of around 2 to 3 nanometers per second, or about 50 times faster than animal nerve cells, pollen tube tips are believed to travel near the…
“For the first time, we have demonstrated an efficient way to transfer DNA into cells without using a virus, currently the most common means of DNA delivery….
The novel process permits simple and direct monitoring of plants, and in particular of the oxygen supply to their roots. Various measurements on the surfaces…
The invention described below consists of a procedure to produce and employ hollow nanocapsules. The nanocapsules are distinguished by the fact that their…
This novel DNA methylation system allows the targeted generation of economic plants with a requested phenotype by gene silencing. What is special is that the…
Until now, there is no reliable and reproducible method for mechanical
pain assessment. The instrument we offer makes a standardized pain

Ground crystalline molybdenum sulfide (MoS2) has reliably proven itself as a universal and inert solid lubricant. Its lubricity could lately be outperformed by…
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) kill tumour cells upon recognition of oligopeptides derived from tumour-associated antigens (TAA). These are presented by major…
In a hitherto unknown, wet-chemical redox reaction, which can be very easily and rapidly accomplished, largely spherical HgSe or HgTe particle clusters having…
The innovation discloses a novel genetic technique in the area of applied immunology and oncology. With that approach we were able to harness human T-cells…
