Case Western Reserve and Penn State investigators inhibit corneal inflammation
Researchers from the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine and Penn State Hershey College of Medicine identified a novel therapeutic that reduces sterile inflammation within the cornea. view more (2008-06-12)
Queen's chemist sheds light on health benefits of garlic
Researchers have widely believed that the organic compound, allicin - which gives garlic its aroma and flavour - acts as the world's most powerful antioxidant. But until now it hasn't been clear how allicin works, or how it stacks up compared to more common antioxidants such as Vitamin E and coenzyme Q10, which stop the damaging effects of... view more...

Elimination of organic waste from water
University of Navarra researcher, Xabier Sevillano, recently defended his PhD thesis on a novel procedure for the elimination of organic waste from water. view more (2005-11-07)
Climate variability impacts the deep sea
Deep-sea ecosystems occupying 60% of the Earth's surface could be vulnerable to the effects of global warming warn scientists writing in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. view more (2009-11-03)
Fingerprinting air - new breakthrough at University of Leicester
The University of Leicester has developed a new 'air fingerprinting' technique which can detect, in less than a minute, the 'ingredients' of air including that of an individual's breath or perfume. This technique revolutionises the speed and accuracy by which air composition can be tested and has potential applications in the environmental,... view more... (2004-06-07)
Breakthrough: UNC scientists have created world's tiniest uniform, precisely shaped organic particles
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill chemists have developed what they believe is a breakthrough method of creating the world's tiniest manufactured particles for delivering drugs and other organic materials into the human body. view more (2005-06-22)
Ethanol Production Could Jeopardize Soil Productivity
There is growing interest in using crop residues as the feedstock of choice for the production of cellulosic-based ethanol because of the more favorable energy output relative to grain-based ethanol. view more (2009-06-03)
Chemical levels in indoor UK swimming pools cause for concern
Levels of the by-products of chlorination are relatively high in indoor UK swimming pools, finds research in Occupational and Environmental Medicine. Some research has suggested that these by-products may be harmful to the developing foetus and may cause miscarriage. view more (2002-04-02)
Before selling carbon credits, read this
Storing carbon in agricultural soils presents an immediate option to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide and slow global warming. view more (2007-05-21)
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)
Seabed Research Will Have Global Significance
Sediments in the Arabian Sea will be examined by an international scientific expedition led by a researcher from the University of Edinburgh to increase understanding of the natural processes of the ocean floor and establish its significance for global cycles and climate change. Robotic research platforms will be deployed on the sea floor to study... view more... (2002-09-05)
Microscopic manufacturers produce eco-friendly plastics
Last year's energy crisis highlighted an unforseen by-product of the looming fuel shortages of the 21st century. Petroleum-based products such as plastics that society takes for granted but now requires to function will run out with the oil. view more (2009-05-19)
Wastewater from the canning industry is not harmful to the agricultural soil
Irrigation with wastewater from the canning industry is not harmful to the quality of agricultural soil and may even, in some cases, improve it. This is the conclusion of Iñigo Abdón Virto Quecedo in his PhD thesis defended at the Public University of Navarre. view more (2004-12-22)
Heaps of climate gas - Pasturing cows convert soil to a source of methane
The cow as a killer of the climate: This inglorious role of our four-legged friends, peaceful in itself, is well-enough recognised, because, with their digestion, the animals produce methane, which is expelled continuously. view more (2007-10-15)
Polarization holographic device using photoreactive polymer liquid crystals
Photo-control of molecular orientation of polymer materials is of great interest for the development of highly functionalized holographic optical devices. view more (2005-10-19)
Caltech, JPL scientists say that microbial mats built 3.4-billion-year-old stromatolites
Stromatolites are dome- or column-like sedimentary rock structures that are formed in shallow water, layer by layer, over long periods of geologic time. view more (2009-07-17)
Hydrocarbons in the deep Earth?
The oil and gas that fuels our homes and cars started out as living organisms that died, were compressed, and heated under heavy layers of sediments in the Earth's crust. Scientists have debated for years whether some of these hydrocarbons could also have been created deeper in the Earth and formed without organic matter. view more (2009-07-27)
Freeing light shines promise on energy-efficient lighting
The latest bright idea in energy-efficient lighting for homes and offices uses big science in nano-small packages to dim the future Edison's light bulb. view more (2008-07-16)
Carbon nanotubes made into conductive, flexible 'stained glass'
Carbon nanotubes are promising materials for many high-technology applications due to their exceptional mechanical, thermal, chemical, optical and electrical properties. view more (2008-04-09)
New study confirms the ecological virtues of organic farming
Organic farming has long been touted as an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional agriculture. view more (2006-03-07)
