Research presents fig tree species storing calcium carbonate in trunks, converting CO2 from atmosphere. The oxalate-carbonate pathway increases soil pH and nutrient availability, making it a potential means to mitigate CO2 emissions.
Intra-arterial tenecteplase significantly reduces the risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality in patients with acute large vessel occlusion. The treatment also improves neurological outcomes at 90 days without increasing complications.
A team at Nanjing University has successfully demonstrated quantum teleportation from telecommunication-wavelength light to a solid-state quantum memory, exceeding theoretical limits for classical systems. The experiment uses components compatible with existing fibre networks, opening the door to large-scale quantum networks.
Researchers screened modern Chinese wheat cultivars and found that wheatgrass flavonoids can extend fruit fly lifespan in a dose-dependent manner. Flavonoids also showed superior antioxidant activity compared to vitamin C, with potential health benefits including anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects.
A study by Bo Zhou's team at Nanjing Agricultural University reveals that GABA metabolism plays a crucial role in modulating pig aggression. The researchers identified key metabolites and differentially expressed genes in the hypothalamus and pituitary gland of pigs with varying aggression levels.
