Physicists have unraveled a mystery behind the strange behavior of electrons in a ferromagnet, a finding that could eventually help develop high temperature…
In the past, biologically-active peptides – small proteins like neurotoxins and hormones that act on cell receptors to alter physiology – were purified from…
The bacterium Lactococcus lactis, which plays an important role in the dairy industry, is unable to produce the amino acid methionine and has to rely on uptake…
An international research team from Germany (PD Dr. Harun Tüysüz and Prof. Dr. William Martin), France (Prof. Dr. Joseph Moran) and Japan (Prof. Dr. Yoichi…
It is a well-known school experiment: When a voltage is applied between two electrodes inserted in water, molecular hydrogen and oxygen are produced. To…
Permanent magnets are incorporated into a number of mechatronic applications.
While quantum physics is usually concerned with the basic building blocks of light and matter, for some time scientists have now been trying to investigate the…
What do rapeseed, avocado and olive tree have in common? They are all used by humans as producers of oil or fat. However, the ability to produce oil from water…
Rutgers engineers have created a tabletop device that combines a robot, artificial intelligence and near-infrared and ultrasound imaging to draw blood or…
“We are seeing that different rivers react very differently to a lack of precipitation,” says the author of the study, Dr. Michael Stölzle from Environmental…
The system specifies the correct deposition of the semi-finished materials as a virtual representation on the mold and can thus significantly improve the…
With the ever-increasing volumes of digital data from the growing numbers of devices, the demand for data storage capacity has been enhanced dramatically over…
After more than 70 years, a great mystery of zoology has been solved: Honeybees actually use different dance dialects in their waggle dance. Which dialect has…
