In a recent study, cell lines exposed to increasingly higher levels of BBP showed higher levels of adipogenesis—the process by which fat cells develop

Researchers suggest seven energy-intensive separation processes they believe should be the top targets for research into low-energy purification technologies

Recent paper estimates that anywhere from 4.8 million to 12.7 million metric tons of plastic were dumped into the ocean in 2010 alone

While self-healing plastics have been developed before, the new material is remarkable because it is safe to humans and works at temperatures as low as 37 C

The possibility to dramatically reduce environmental impact without compromising the integrity of research has propelled the rise of innovative, cost-effective solutions for improved lab sustainability.

Plastic waste could find its way deep into the ocean through the feces of plankton, new research from the University of Exeter and Plymouth Marine Laboratory shows.
