Microbes at work cleaning up the environment
It may sound counterintuitive to use a microbial protein to improve water quality. view more (2007-06-18)
Technique enables efficient gene splicing in human embryonic stem cells
A novel technique allows researchers to efficiently and precisely modify or introduce genes into the genomes of human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, according to Whitehead scientists. view more (2009-08-14)
Study shows transfer of heavy metals from water to fish in Huelva estuary
A team of researchers from the University of Cadiz has confirmed that zinc, copper and lead are present at high levels in the water and sediments of the Huelva estuary, and have studied how some of these heavy metals are transferred to fish. view more (2009-06-16)
Gene expression pattern could lead to improved treatment of pediatric septic shock
A consortium of researchers headed by Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center has discovered a gene expression pattern that could lead to improved diagnosis and treatment of pediatric septic shock - still a serious public health problem despite today's potent antibiotics and pediatric intensive care units. view more (2007-07-27)
High-res view of zinc transport protein
How much difference can a tenth of a nanometer make? When it comes to figuring out how proteins work, an improvement in resolution of that miniscule amount can mean the difference between seeing where atoms are and understanding how they interact. view more (2009-09-14)
Nitric oxide plays a vital role in the formation of long-term memory in snails
Snails can teach us a great deal about how we form memories, according to a group of neuroscientists at the University of Sussex. Research by Dr Ildik'³ Kemenes, Professor Paul Benjamin, Professor Michael O'Shea and colleagues shows that nitric oxide plays a vital role in the formation of long-term memory in snails. This is of crucial importance... view more... (2002-02-18)
NITRIC OXIDE BENEFIT FOR INFANTS UNDERGOING CONGENITAL HEART SURGERY (p 1464)
The cardiovascular problems associated with surgery for congenital heart disease in infants may be reduced with the use of postoperative nitric oxide, according to research published in this week's issue of THE LANCET. Congenital heart disease is present in five to ten per 1000 livebirths. If surgery is required, the most common defects are... view more... (2000-10-25)
New intestinal disease charted by Swedish researcher
Microscopic colitis is a newly discovered inflammatory intestinal disease that occurs in two different forms, lymphocytary colitis and collagenic colitis. Ã-rebro University, Sweden, is on the cutting edge of research on these diseases, and Martin Olesen is one of first scientists in the country to write a dissertation on the subject, defending... view more...

Researchers uncover E. coli's defense mechanism
The pathogenic forms of E. coli and Salmonella are usually transmitted to humans through undercooked meat, unwashed vegetables and cross contamination from surfaces on which these foods were prepared. view more (2005-09-29)
NIST demos industrial-grade nanowire device fabrication
In the growing catalog of nanoscale technologies, nanowires-tiny rows of conductor or semiconductor atoms-have attracted a great deal of interest for their potential to build unique atomic-scale electronics. view more (2007-10-29)
Opiates and cannaboids: the fight against pain
Opiates and cannaboids, apart from being drugs, have curative properties. Thus, opiates (morphine, methadone, etc.) have been used for some time as a pain-reducer and many cannaboids have also analgesic properties. Regarding their curative aspects, it is very important to know the effects produced after a prolonged period of treatment. Carrying... view more... (2003-03-18)
Sildenafil prevents rebound pulmonary hypertension in infants
A single dose of sildenafil, a blood vessel widening vasodilator, prevented rebound pulmonary hypertension and significantly reduced the duration of mechanical ventilation in intensive care unit (ICU) infants being withdrawn from inhaled nitric oxide therapy. view more (2006-11-01)
Camera flash turns an insulating material into a conductor
An insulator can now be transformed to conduct electricity by an ordinary camera flash. view more (2009-08-13)
NOAA study shows nitrous oxide now top ozone-depleting emission
Nitrous oxide has now become the largest ozone-depleting substance emitted through human activities, and is expected to remain the largest throughout the 21st century, NOAA scientists say in a new study. view more (2009-08-28)
Research points to more effective catalyst materials for petrochemical industry
Nickel oxide is a very important chemical in modern industrial processes. It is commonly used as a catalyst within the petrochemical industry in areas like the synthesis of olefin gas and the reforming reaction of methane. view more (2006-05-12)
No laughing matter -- bacteria are releasing a serious greenhouse gas
Unlike carbon dioxide and methane, laughing gas has been largely ignored by world leaders as a worrying greenhouse gas. But nitrous oxide must be taken more seriously. view more (2008-03-31)
Probing a rare material spin state at NIST
A team of international physicists that includes researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has found experimental evidence of a highly sought-after type of arrangement of atomic magnetic moments, or spins, in a series of materials. view more (2007-09-17)
Emory scientists discover unique binding method for essential cellular protein ubiquitin
Researchers at Emory University School of Medicine have uncovered new information about the molecular pathway used by ubiquitin, an essential protein that helps regulate the amounts and locations of other proteins within cells. view more (2006-03-24)
Aminoguanidine: An attractive line as a multi-modal avenue to overcome tumor
Aminoguanidine is a compound that exerts multiple biological actions. Aminoguanidine has well described antioxidant properties and is also an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthases, the enzymes that produce nitric oxide. view more (2009-03-09)
