A new ultra-sensitive, low-cost and portable system for detecting mercury in environmental water has been developed by University of Adelaide researchers.
Human cells make new copies of their DNA billions of times each day, a crucial process upon which life itself depends. However, scientists do not fully understand how cells unzip the double-stranded DNA molecule before replicating both halves of it. New work at Rockefeller may help change that.
A novel combination of microscopy and data processing has given researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory an unprecedented look at the surface of a material known for its unusual physical and electrochemical properties.
Companies combine expertise to produce cytomegalovirus vaccine candidates.
Antibacterial clays could be the answer to superbugs.
The size and age of plants has more of an impact on their productivity than temperature and precipitation, University of Arizona researchers have discovered.
A multi-institutional team of researchers has developed a new nanoscale agent for imaging the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This safe, noninvasive method for assessing the function and properties of the GI tract in real time could lead to better diagnosis and treatment of gut diseases.
Malvern Instruments Ltd (Malvern, UK) has today (July 25) announced that it has completed the acquisition of MicroCal from GE Healthcare Life Sciences and has also purchased the Archimedes particle characterization system from Affinity Biosensors LLC (Santa Barbara, CA). Both of these developments extend Malvern’s portfolio of analytical solutions for the rapidly advancing biopharmaceutical industry.
Fulbright-Brazil Scientific Mobility Awards are available for U.S. scholars and professionals. The deadline to apply is Aug. 1.
When you can’t collect all the data you need, a new algorithm tells you which to target.
Since they were first developed a quarter-century ago, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have impressed scientists with their mechanical strength and stiffness, their optical performance, and their ability to conduct heat and electricity.
