Metal-organic frameworks can capture, store and release chemical compounds like salts and ions in seawater. It has a wide internal surface area and sponge like crystals for trapping chemical compounds dissolved in water. Do you know more...
A startup has developed a portable device, named iQ, that lets you generate clinical-quality ultrasound image on your iPhone. It leverages augmented reality and artificial intelligence to make interface more user-friendly. The device is FDA...
The emotional and psychological stress can accelerate the development of pancreatic cancer. Stress generates a feed-forward loop between cancer cells and nerves, promoting tumor growth. The patients’ life expectancy can be increased with...
Researchers have successfully tested far ultraviolet C light to eradicate airborne flu viruses without damaging human tissues. If results are confirmed in other scenarios, it would be safe to use this approach in public locations for...
A sphere (micrometer-scale) is trapped in a liquid mixture using optical tweezers, and under specific conditions it rotates around the laser beam. The sphere’s rotational speed increases with the increase in laser power. The...
Scientists have found a new way to stimulate the stem cells in the tooth’s pulp and regrow new dentine in bigger cavities. This new method utilizes an Alzheimer’s drug to make teeth repair themselves within 6 weeks. So...
A new technique holds promise for high speed reaction screening while using minute amounts of chemicals (low µg level). It provides information valuable in scaled-up synthesis, including solvent and pH optimization. It can reduce...
Forensic Science plays an important role in the modern judiciary setup in almost every nation around the world. By definition, forensic science is the application of science that is practiced during the criminal investigation by...
When your eyes move, so do your eardrums. The movements of eardrum encode spatial information about the movements of eyes, and this helps our brain to merge visual and auditory space. The study could help us better understand disorders ranging...
Scientists develop a single solution of genome editing agent that partially preserves hearing ability. They have applied this strategy to a mouse model of progressive hearing loss. After 4 weeks, treated mice responded to 65 dB of sound, whereas...
Scientists developed a new material called diamene by compressing two graphene layers. Diamene is extremely thin yet harder than diamond under specific conditions. It will be used in developing wear-resistant protective coating and...
Physicists discover a new form of matter called Excitonium, which was theorized 50 years ago. It’s made of excitons, particles formed in a strange quantum mechanical pairing. Momentum-resolved Electron Energy-Loss Spectroscopy (M-EELS) is used...
