Aging brain reduces ovulation
Dutch researcher Annelieke Franke has discovered that the aging of the brain adversely affects the fertility of female rats. The scientist suspects that her research will provide insights into fertility problems of women over the age of 30. Franke studied relatively young subfertile rats. Although the pituitary gland and ovaries of these rats... view more... (2003-10-10)
Roles of DNA packaging protein revealed by Einstein scientists
Scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University have found that a class of chromatin proteins is crucial for maintaining the structure and function of chromosomes and the normal development of eukaryotic organisms. view more (2009-02-13)
Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute new study on pregnant women & iron
A new study conducted by researchers at Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute (CHORI), in close collaboration with scientists at the National Institute of Perinatology in Mexico, is the first to show that the current iron supplement recommendation for pregnant women who are not anemic is too high and could lead to birth complications for... view more...

Natural gas nanotech
Nanotechnology could revolutionize the natural gas industry across the whole lifecycle from extraction to pollution reduction or be an enormous missed opportunity, claim two industry experts writing in Inderscience's International Journal of Nanotechnology. view more (2007-10-31)
New dating technique with sand grains
In a Technology Foundation STW project at the University of Groningen, researchers have successfully determined how long ago a number of sand grains were last exposed to sunlight. The dating method is useful for mapping the transport of sand along the coast. Forensic science may also benefit from this technique. Sand that is deposited along the... view more... (2002-11-15)
CSHL researchers pinpoint structure-building role for 2 non-coding RNAs
Most of the DNA in the nucleus of each of our cells is converted into RNA, but only a small fraction of these RNA molecules serve as coding templates for the synthesis of proteins. view more (2009-03-04)
Tiny 'cages' could trap carbon dioxide and help stop climate change
A natural physical process has been identified that could play a key role in secure sub-seabed storage of carbon dioxide produced by fossil-fuelled power stations. view more (2006-03-17)
Higher carbon dioxide, lack of nitrogen limit plant growth
Earth's plant life will not be able to "store" excess carbon from rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels as well as scientists once thought because plants likely cannot get enough nutrients, such as nitrogen, when there are higher levels of carbon dioxide view more (2006-04-13)
Got Sugar? Glucose Affects Our Ability to Resist Temptation
New research from a lab at Florida State University reveals that self-control takes fuel-- literally. When we exercise it, resisting temptations to misbehave, our fuel tank is depleted, making subsequent efforts at self-control more difficult. view more (2007-12-04)
Water theory is watertight, researchers say
There may be tiny bubbles in the wine, but not at the interface between water and a waxy coating on glass, a new study shows. view more (2007-01-18)
Potential preventative therapy for Type 1 diabetes
Scientists believe they may have found a preventative therapy for Type 1 diabetes, by making the body's killer immune cells tolerate the insulin-producing cells they would normally attack and destroy, prior to disease onset. view more (2009-04-29)
New simulation shows consequences of a world without Earth's natural sunscreen
Nearly two-thirds of Earth's ozone is gone -- not just over the poles, but everywhere. The infamous ozone hole over Antarctica, first discovered in the 1980s, is a year-round fixture, with a twin over the North Pole. The ultraviolet (UV) radiation falling on mid-latitude cities like Washington, D.C., is strong enough to cause sunburn in just five... view more... (2009-03-19)
Pellets of power designed to deliver hydrogen for tomorrow's vehicles
Hydrogen may prove to be the fuel of the future in powering the effi cient, eco-friendly fuel cell vehicles of tomorrow. view more (2007-08-22)
New light shed on the enigma of salt intake and hypertension
A high salt intake has been implicated in cardiovascular disease risk for 5000 years. But salt-sensitive hypertension still remains an enigma. view more (2009-05-04)
Listening to dark matter
A team of researchers in Canada have made a bold stride in the struggle to detect dark matter. The PICASSO collaboration has documented the discovery of a significant difference between the acoustic signals induced by neutrons and alpha particles in a detector based on superheated liquids. view more (2008-10-16)
Can ancient rocks yield clues about catastrophes like Hurricane Katrina?
Hurricane Katrina and other natural catastrophes in recent years have shown how vulnerable mankind is in the face of nature. view more (2005-09-08)
Coral reef fish larvae settle close to home
Tracing the larvae of marine organisms from where they were born to their ultimate destination has been regarded as one of the greatest challenges in ocean science. view more (2005-07-26)
GPs need to be prepared for flu pandemic
General practitioners would be crucial in avoiding large numbers of deaths in Australia as a result of a pandemic influenza outbreak, researchers at The Australian National University have shown. view more (2006-10-17)
Amazon River reversed flow
Ask any South American dinosaur which way the Amazon River flows and she would have told you east-to-west, the opposite of today. That's the surprising conclusion of researchers studying ancient mineral grains buried in the Amazon Basin. view more (2006-10-25)
Restructuring at the John Innes Centre, Norwich
The John Innes Centre (JIC) Norwich (1) has announced today that changes in non-government science funding and increased costs have forced a re-structuring of the Centre to ensure its long term sustainability as the UK's flagship research centre in plant and microbial science. view more (2005-04-08)
