Fungus That Absorbs And Secretes Gold Discovered In Australia A surprising discovery has been found in Western Australia where a fungi is covered in gold.
One of the complicated and frustrating things in the field of research focused on quantum mechanics is the spin of an electron. It serves as the smallest unit of information in a quantum computer.
Chemists from the McMaster University have developed a unique yet simple method of computing by shining patterned bands of light and shadow through different sides of a polymer and cube and reading the combined results that emerge.
British man tedious enough to solve his carbon footprint to fight climate change In a world where the new car, new dress, and a cool profile picture seems to define your world, who can imagine that there is a man that sees and nurture one of the most important gifts to humankind.
Study reveals DAGL-beta inhibitors that have the potential to be addiction-free pain relievers University of Virginia chemists developed a non-addictive chronic pain treatment.
Wound treatment possible through a hydrogel Collaborators from various institutions in China developed a hydrogel that can stop uncontrolled bleeding from a punctured artery.
The sound around us influences everyday experiences, even decision-making If you want to know whether a watermelon is ripe or not, the quickest way to know is by tapping on it.
Recent attempts enhance the interaction between light and the molecule to be detected One of the essential applications of light science is optical sensing.
Scientists develop a new method in tracing homemade bombs. Collaborators from King's College London and Northumbria University developed a new method of tracing homemade explosives.
Study shows that fructose can be a source of HMF Collaborators from the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center and the University of Wisconsin-Madison developed an efficient and economically-feasible manner of producing HMF or 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, a chemical derived from plants that could help solve in the transition from a fossil-based economy towards an environmentally-friendly bio-based economy.
Study shows an improved and safer battery University of Maryland (UMD) and US Army Research Lab (ARL) researchers developed an approach that improved the capacity of batteries to have high energy through enhancing their water-in-salt battery with a new kind of chemical transformation of the cathode that results in a reversible solid salt layer.
