Formation of minerals was started by Oxidization more than two billion years ago. About 5,208 materials were listed by the International Mineralogical Association. Now, Robert Hazen from the Carnegie Institution for Science has defined 208 minerals among the list of 5,208 minerals as Human Influenced.
Université libre de Bruxelles(ULB) scientists found stem cell dynamics can contribute to wound healing. when skin gets a hurt then body activates cellular and molecular event to repair the damage.
From children toys to scientific research elements photoluminescent aka the 'glow in the dark' have a huge application. To compensate the growing demand, scientists from Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University(OIST) found an alternative process to produce photoluminescent chemicals
Scientists Found An Alternative Process To Produce Biofuel By Farming Microalgae. Nannochloropsis Oceanica can store more Triacylglycerols (TAGs) which can be used as biofuels.
Since last decade nuclear smuggling is increasing rapidly. Physicists found dark matter detectors to catch nuclear conflicts. Physicists made Large Underground Xenon(LUX) detector in south Dakota to catch Dark matters but, the study was discontinued in September 2016. Now they are constructing LUX-ZEPLIN than can also help physicists to catch Uranium thieves.
