Color-coded bacteria can spot oil spills or leaky pipes and storage tanks
Oil spills and other environmental pollution, including low level leaks from underground pipes and storage tanks, could be quickly and easily spotted in the future using colour coded bacteria. view more (2008-09-11)
Nose-on-a-chip Aims To Mimic The Real Thing
An ambitious project is underway to build the world's smallest electronic nose. If the project succeeds, it is expected that the technology would have many potential applications in areas such as environmental monitoring, healthcare and food safety. The aim is to combine the odour sensors together with the signal processing components on to a... view more... (2002-03-04)
Cocktails ameliorate celiac disease
The University Rovira i Virgili (Spain), the company Trace Biotech AG (Braunschweig), the Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH (IMM, Mainz), and seven other European partners are jointly developing a biosensor for the detection of gluten in food. The goal of the ambitious project is to manufacture a disposable microsystem with integrated... view more... (2002-11-28)
Plastic with changeable conductivity developed by chemical engineer
Dr. Yueh-Lin (Lynn) Loo at The University of Texas at Austin has modified a plastic so its ability to carry an electrical current can be altered during manufacturing to meet the needs of future electronic devices. view more (2007-04-10)
Adenine 'tails' make tailored anchors for DNA
Researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) and the University of Maryland (UMD) have demonstrated a deceptively simple technique for chemically bonding single strands of DNA to gold. view more (2006-12-27)
Einstein's relativity theory proven with the 'lead' of a pencil
Scientists at The University of Manchester have discovered a new way to test Einstein's theory of relativity using the 'lead' of a pencil. view more (2005-11-10)
Experimental bus-tram on test
In 2003, an experimental 24-metre-long bus with independent control and drive to all its axles will be introduced in the Dutch city of Eindhoven. NWO's Technology Foundation STW is financing research at Eindhoven University of Technology into a sophisticated electronic guidance system. This will ensure that the new vehicle runs comfortably, rather... view more... (2001-07-26)
Energy-saving method checks refrigerant level in air conditioners
Engineers have developed a technique that saves energy and servicing costs by indicating when air conditioners are low on refrigerant, preventing the units from working overtime. view more (2009-06-24)
How much water does the ocean have?
The calculation of variations in the sea level is relatively simple. It is by far more complicated to then determine the change in the water mass. view more (2009-11-13)
Creatine in addition to exercise enhances strength in older adults
Lower muscle mass and an increase in body fat are common consequences of growing older. view more (2007-10-03)
NASA researcher finds days of snow melting on the rise in Greenland
In 2006, Greenland experienced more days of melting snow and at higher altitudes than average over the past 18 years, according to a new NASA-funded project using satellite observations. view more (2007-05-30)
An 'eye catching' vision discovery
Nearly all species have some ability to detect light. At least three types of cells in the retina allow us to see images or distinguish between night and day. Now, researchers at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine have discovered in fish yet another type of cell that can sense light and contribute to vision. view more (2009-07-27)
Connection between depression and osteoporosis shown by Hebrew University researchers
Depression can cause a loss of bone mass, leading to osteoporosis and fractures, say researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. view more (2006-10-31)
Common osteoporosis treatment may help men with prostate cancer suffering from bone loss
Men with prostate cancer who experience bone loss from cancer treatment could benefit from a weekly oral therapy commonly given to women with osteoporosis. view more (2006-02-27)
Mathematician uses topology to study abstract spaces, solve problems
Studying complex systems, such as the movement of robots on a factory floor, the motion of air over a wing, or the effectiveness of a security network, can present huge challenges. Mathematician Robert Ghrist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is developing advanced mathematical tools to simplify such tasks. view more (2006-08-16)
CDF precision measurement of W-boson mass suggests a lighter Higgs particle
Scientists of the CDF collaboration at the Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory announced today (January 8, 2007) the world's most precise measurement by a single experiment of the mass of the W boson, the carrier of the weak nuclear force and a key parameter of the Standard Model of particles and forces. The new W-mass... view more... (2007-01-09)
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)
Research identifies protein in mice that regulates bone formation
Osteoporosis, a disease characterized by a decrease in bone mass and density and which makes people more susceptible to bone fractures and deformities, afflicts some 10 million Americans over the age of 50. view more (2006-06-23)
Bacterial toxin closes gate on immune response, Penn researchers discover
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine have demonstrated that a bacterial toxin from the common bacterium Staphylococcus aureus shuts down the control mechanism of the tunnel, called an ion channel, in immune cell membranes. view more (2008-02-14)
What Makes The Scorpion`S Sting Deadly Poisonous?
Even the scorpion`s exterior warns that this is a dangerous animal. And it proves to be true, as nothing good comes out when small animals and even human beings meet with this arthropod species: its sting causes a sharp pain, some tropical scorpion`s sting is often fatal for the victim. The scientists from the Moscow Institute for Organoelement... view more... (2002-03-15)
