Microdevices bypass centrifugation, separating molecules as they pass through an H-filter and reading them with optical detectors. These devices will enable immediate diagnoses in ambulances and hospitals.
Researchers at the University of Cincinnati and US EPA found that water-saving shower nozzles can increase lung trouble risk due to finer spray particles, which can stir up contaminants and microbes growing in biofilms
Expert researcher Juan Roederer is set to begin his long-awaited study of the radiation belts circling Jupiter after 20 years with the Galileo spacecraft. The research aims to understand how Io, one of Jupiter's moons, affects the planet's radiation belts and compare them to Earth's Van Allen belts.
Ecological researchers highlight gaps in evidence on biocontrol's safety record, citing potential ecological risks. The use of biological control methods in agriculture is being reevaluated due to concerns over environmental harm, but research suggests it can be an effective solution for certain pest problems.
