MIT's 'electronic nose' could detect hazards
A tiny "electronic nose" that MIT researchers have engineered with a novel inkjet printing method could be used to detect hazards including carbon monoxide, harmful industrial solvents and explosives. view more (2007-11-12)
Hot springs microbes hold key to dating sedimentary rocks, researchers say
Scientists studying microbial communities and the growth of sedimentary rock at Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park have made a surprising discovery about the geological record of life and the environment. view more (2008-01-23)
Purdue study finds dairy better for bones than calcium carbonate
A Purdue University study shows dairy has an advantage over calcium carbonate in promoting bone growth and strength. view more (2009-04-29)
Relic of life in that Martian meteorite? A fresh look
Since the mid-1990s a great debate has raged over whether organic compounds and tiny globules of carbonate minerals imbedded in the Martian meteorite Allan Hills 84001 were processed by living creatures from the Red Planet. view more (2006-03-23)
'Virtual' colonoscopy considerably more expensive
Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center researchers have found that "virtual" colonoscopy using a computer tomography (CT) scanner is considerably more expensive than the traditional procedure due to the detection of suspicious images outside of the colon. view more (2006-10-25)
Mixing without side effects
The range of micromixers offered by IMM is also suitable for processes susceptible to fouling, especially in fine chemistry and pharmaceutics. The new „Interdigital-separation-layer-mixers" are replacing the present generation of „Separation-layer-mixers". The new mixer system has been adapted especially to industrial... view more...

Catalysis discovery takes aim at NOx emissions
A discovery in molecular chemistry may help remove a barrier to widespread use of diesel and other fuel-efficient "lean burn" vehicle engines. Researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have recorded the first observations of how certain catalyst materials used in emission control devices are... view more...

Ancient coral reef tells the history of Kenya's soil erosion
Coral reefs, like tree rings, are natural archives of climate change. But oceanic corals also provide a faithful account of how people make use of land through history, says Robert B. Dunbar of Stanford University. view more (2007-04-11)
University of Miami scientist uncovers miscalculation in geological undersea record
The precise timing of the origin of life on Earth and the changes in life during the past 4.5 billion years has been a subject of great controversy for the past century. view more (2008-09-11)
UCLA/VA study: Many patients not receiving follow-up tests after positive screening for colon cancer
A UCLA/Veteran's Affairs study showed that more than 40 percent of patients who initially had received a positive result on a fecal occult blood test (FOBT) — an initial screening tool for colon cancer — did not receive appropriate diagnostic follow-up tests such as a colonoscopy or barium enema in 2002. view more (2006-05-31)
Coral reefs found growing in cold, deep ocean
Imagine descending in a submarine to the ice-cold, ink-black depths of the ocean, 800 metres under the surface of the Atlantic. view more (2008-11-05)
New wrinkle in the mystery of high-Tc superconductors
In the twenty years since the discovery of high-temperature (Tc) superconductors, scientists have been trying to understand the mechanism by which electrons pair up and move coherently to carry electrical current with no resistance. view more (2006-03-17)
Economical and cleaner cars with lean-burn catalytic converter
Dutch researcher Karen Scholz has taken a careful look at the properties of a new type of catalytic converter found in cars. view more (2007-07-13)
Ocean acidification threatens cold-water coral ecosystems
Corals don't only occur in warm, sun-drenched, tropical seas; some species are found at depths of three miles or more in cold, dark waters throughout the world's oceans. view more (2006-04-03)
Regardless of global warming, rising CO2 levels threaten marine life
Like a piece of chalk dissolving in vinegar, marine life with hard shells is in danger of being dissolved by increasing acidity in the oceans. view more (2007-03-09)
Origins of Life
The origin of life lies in unique ocean reefs, and scientists from the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science have developed an approach to help investigate them better. view more (2006-11-20)
Shellfish face an uncertain future in a high CO2 world
Overfishing and disease have decimated shellfish populations in many of the world's temperate estuarine and coastal ecosystems. view more (2009-05-27)
A crystal clear view of chalk formation
Chalk crystallizes differently from the way we once thought it did. This discovery will allow the development of new scale inhibitors and other materials, and has also consequences for climate change. view more (2009-01-26)
A new screening test for chronic abdominal pain
Evaluation of chronic abdominal pain of luminal etiology is a challenging problem for the primary care physicians and gastroenterologists. The exact localization of lesion to either small or large bowel remains an elusive identity in many subjects. view more (2008-12-29)
