Inert gas may help stop damaged nerve cells from dying
Scientists from Imperial College London have discovered that xenon gas could help in protecting damaged nerve cells. The research, published today in Anesthesiology, shows that xenon, an inert gas, acts as a neuroprotectant, helping to protect damaged nerve cells from dying. Based upon pre-clinical trials, researchers believe it could have human... view more... (2002-05-29)
Fuels from Biomass: New Technique Can Fast-Track Better Ionic Liquids for Biomass Pre-Treatments
Understanding how ionic liquids dissolve lignocellulose will help scientists find new and better ways of producing advanced fuels from biomass
They've been dubbed "grassoline" - second generation biofuels made from inedible plant material, including fast-growing weeds, agricultural waste, sawdust, etc. - and numerous scientific... view more... (2009-07-13)
Engineered pig stem cells bridge the mouse-human gap

First calves from gene diagnosed embryos born at MTT Agrifood Research Finland
Results from quantitative trait gene mapping (QTL) have been utilised for the first time in the selection of bovine embryos. The genotypes of two genes affecting milk yield and composition have been analysed from pre-implantation embryo biopsies. The first four female calves with known milk production genotypes were recently born at the... view more... (2003-08-14)
