Procognia and Xcellerex Sign High Speed Glycoanalysis Agreement
September 29th, 2003, Maidenhead UK and Marlborough, MA, US - Procognia Ltd and Xcellerex LLC announced an agreement to provide Procognia's rapid glycoanalysis to Xcellerex customers. Xcellerex is the leader in the application of advanced biomanufacturing technologies in the biologics contract manufacturing industry. Procognia has developed... view more... (2003-09-30)
Darwin's greatest challenge tackled: the mystery of eye evolution
When Darwin's skeptics attack his theory of evolution, they often focus on the eye. Darwin himself confessed that it was "absurd" to propose that the human eye evolved through spontaneous mutation and natural selection. Scientists at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) have now tackled Darwin's major challenge in an... view more... (2004-10-26)
Increase in atmospheric moisture tied to human activities
Observations and climate model results confirm that human-induced warming of the planet is having a pronounced effect on the atmosphere's total moisture content. view more (2007-09-18)
Smithsonian researcher probes Hope Diamond's fiery red glow
A study released in the January 2008 edition of the journal Geology proves that a blue diamond's rare appeal goes far beyond its beauty. The study was conducted by Jeffrey Post, curator of the National Gem Collection and mineralogist, at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History. view more (2008-01-09)
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)
New evidence for organic compounds in deep space
The mysterious spectral bands in the infrared of interstellar gas clouds in deep space originate from organic compounds. Research by the Nijmegen physicist Hans Piest confirms this. He has provided new experimental evidence for this almost 30-year-old problem in astronomy. Each molecule has specific wavelengths at which it can either absorb or... view more... (2002-04-18)
Children's Hospital researchers identify genetic mutation that may predict organ rejection
Using a novel combination of cutting-edge technologies to scan the human genome, researchers at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC have identified a genetic mutation that identifies transplant recipients who experience rejection. view more (2008-09-16)
Exercise reverses aging in human skeletal muscle
Not only does exercise make most people feel better and perform physical tasks better, it now appears that exercise - specifically, resistance training -- actually rejuvenates muscle tissue in healthy senior citizens. view more (2007-05-23)
Device prevents potential errors in children's medications
A device designed to eliminate mistakes made while mixing compounds at a hospital pharmacy was 100 percent accurate in identifying the proper formulations of seven intravenous drugs. view more (2008-01-09)
Scientists detect 'fingerprint' of high-temp superconductivity above transition temperature
A team of U.S. and Japanese scientists has shown for the first time that the spectroscopic "fingerprint" of high-temperature superconductivity remains intact well above the super chilly temperatures at which these materials carry current with no resistance. view more (2009-08-28)
New Window Opens on the Secret Life of Microbes: Scientists Develop First Microbial Profiles of Ecosystems
Nowhere is the principle of "strength in numbers" more apparent than in the collective power of microbes: despite their simplicity, these one-cell organisms--which number about 5 million trillion trillion strong (no, that is not a typo) on Earth--affect virtually every ecological process, from the decay of organic material to the... view more...

Urban myth disproved: Fingerprints do not improve grip friction
Fingerprints mark us out as individuals and leave telltale signs of our presence on every object that we touch, but what are fingerprints really for? view more (2009-06-12)
Study Identifies Genetic Fingerprint Of Healthy Sperm
The genetic fingerprinting of sperm cells-detailed in this week's issue of THE LANCET-could be a major step forward in our understanding of male infertility. Around one in six couples experience difficulty in conceiving a child, and male fertility problems account for half of assisted reproductive techniques. However, the underlying cause of... view more... (2002-09-04)
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)
Rice scientists make breakthrough in single-molecule sensing
In a study that could lay the foundation for mass-produced single-molecule sensors, physicists and engineers at Rice University have demonstrated a means of simultaneously making optical and electronic measurements of the same molecule. view more (2008-02-07)
Binghamton University research links digital images and cameras
Child pornographers will soon have a harder time escaping prosecution thanks to a stunning new technology in development at Binghamton University, State University of New York, that can reliably link digital images to the camera with which they were taken, in much the same way that tell-tale scratches are used by forensic examiners to link bullets... view more...

Pressable photonic crystals produce full-colour fingerprints and promise enhanced security
In the future, law enforcement officials may take full-colour fingerprints using new technology developed by a University of Toronto-led team of international researchers. view more (2006-03-15)
DNA sieve -- Nanoscale pores can be tiny analysis labs
Imagine being able to rapidly identify tiny biological molecules such as DNA and toxins using less than a drop of salt water in a system that can fit on a microchip. view more (2007-05-14)
Compact, wavelength-on-demand Quantum Cascade Laser chip offers ultra-sensitive chemical sensing
Engineers from Harvard University have demonstrated a highly versatile, compact and portable Quantum Cascade Laser sensor for the fast detection of a large number of chemicals, ranging from infinitesimal traces of gases to liquids, by broad tuning of the emission wavelength. view more (2007-12-04)
Fingerprint breakthrough hope in US double murder probe
A double murder investigation that has remained unsolved for almost a decade could be provided new impetus following a forensic breakthrough at the University of Leicester. view more (2008-08-28)
