University of Ulster to establish 'Green' Power Research Centre
The University of Ulster is set to become the "green" powerhouse of Ireland. It is to establish a state-of-the-art research centre on its Jordanstown campus to investigate new and renewable sources of energy. Work on the multi-million pound development is expected to begin later this year and is scheduled to be completed by the autumn of... view more... (2001-09-18)
Revealing the evolutionary history of threatened sea turtles
It's confirmed: Even though flatback turtles dine on fish, shrimp, and mollusks, they are closely related to primarily herbivorous green sea turtles. view more (2008-10-16)
New clues about mitochondrial 'growth spurts'
Mitochondria are restless, continually merging and splitting. But contrary to conventional wisdom, the size of these organelles depends on more than fusion and fission, as Berman et al. show. Mitochondrial growth and degradation are also part of the equation. view more (2009-03-02)
Sell-by date "arbitrary" on some food packaging
New research on untreated green olives has found that products with a stated shelf-life of 2-3 years can be 'unacceptable' long before their sell-by date. The study, published in the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, looked at the growing trend towards using polyethylene pouches which are vacuum-packed, filled with brine or packed in... view more...

Piecing together the cyanobacteria puzzle
Blue green algae are significant species in the global carbon cycle because they transform nitrogen gas from the atmosphere into a useable nutrient, enabling photosynthesis in nutrient-poor waters. view more (2007-07-11)
Biochemists manipulate fruit flavor enzymes
Would you like a lemony watermelon? How about a strawberry-flavored banana? Biochemists at The University of Texas Medical School at Houston say the day may be coming when scientists will be able to fine tune enzymes responsible for flavors in fruits and vegetables. In addition, it could lead to environmentally-friendly pest control. view more (2008-08-21)
Kids connect alcohol odors with mom's emotions
How children respond to the smell of alcoholic beverages is related to their mothers' reasons for drinking, according to a new study from the Monell Chemical Senses Center. view more (2008-06-25)
Naturally-occurring apple compounds reduce risk of pancreatic cancer
Eating flavonol-rich foods like apples may help reduce the risk of pancreatic cancer, says a team of international researchers. Quercetin, which is found naturally in apples and onions, has been identified as one of the most beneficial flavonols in preventing and reducing the risk of pancreatic cancer. view more (2007-10-04)

A UK Flotilla To Study Earth-Grazing Asteroids
On 30 June 1908, the seemingly endless forests of Siberia received an unwelcome and unexpected visit by an intruder from deep space. As it plunged headlong through the Earth's atmosphere, the incoming asteroid exploded a few miles above the tree tops, flattening the forest over an area about 50 km (30 miles) in diameter. If the 60 metre (200 ft)... view more... (2003-04-01)
The 'green revolution gene' goes to the root of how plants control their growth.
Scientists at the John Innes Centre (JIC) Norwich(1), have discovered how plants coordinate and control their development by using a master signal to regulate the growth of cells throughout the plant. The signal, a plant hormone called auxin, affects the ability of cells to respond to another hormone (gibberellin(2)) that 'switches on' cell... view more... (2003-02-11)
Green tea compounds beat OSA-related brain deficits
Chemicals found in green tea may be able to stave off the cognitive deficits that occur with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), according to a new study published in the second issue for May of the American Thoracic Society's American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine. view more (2008-05-15)
Moderate drinking can reduce risks of Alzheimer's dementia and cognitive decline
Moderate drinkers often have lower risks of Alzheimer's disease and other cognitive loss, according to researchers who reviewed 44 studies. In more than half of the studies, published since the 1990s, moderate drinkers of wine, beer and liquor had lower dementia risks than nondrinkers. view more (2008-12-30)
New chemical tool kit manipulates mitochondria, reveals insights into drug toxicity
Why do nearly 1 million people taking cholesterol-lowering statins often experience muscle cramps? Why is it that in the rare case when a diabetic takes medication for intestinal worms, his glucose levels improve? Is there any scientific basis for the purported health effects of green tea? view more (2008-02-25)
Green tea boosts production of detox enzymes, rendering cancerous chemicals harmless
Concentrated chemicals derived from green tea dramatically boosted production of a group of key detoxification enzymes in people with low levels of these beneficial proteins, according to researchers at Arizona Cancer Center. view more (2007-08-13)
The Institite of Physics Celebrates 125th Anniversary
The campaign will demonstrate that physics is central and integral to modern life. The posters placed on 'Megarears' (the back of buses) and on bus interiors will depict bright images about physics topics which will be familiar to passengers. The accompanying strapline will read 'Thanks to Physics'. view more (1999-02-10)
Brewing up potential anti-cancer drugs from green tea
Drinking green tea has a protective effect against some forms of cancer but drinking large amounts can increase the risk of birth defects such as spina bifida - according to previous epidemiological studies. view more (2005-03-14)
The aye-ayes have it: The preservation of color vision in a creature of the night
A quest to gain a more complete picture of color vision evolution has led Biodesign Institute researcher Brian Verrelli to an up-close, genetic encounter with one of the world's most rare and bizarre-looking primates. view more (2007-09-05)
Could Healthy Eating Cause Stress?
The health benefits of antioxidants in foods including red wine, vitamin E and even tea have been widely researched over the last twenty years, fuelled by evidence that oxidative damage may be implicated in many diseases. On Monday 12 April, 17.30, Dr Edwin N. Frankel, University of California, will explore 'Antioxidants: past,... view more... (2002-04-12)
