The 23rd聽SpaceX聽cargo resupply services mission carrying scientific research and technology demonstrations to the聽International Space Station聽is targeted to launch in late August from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. ...
Magnetic fields can be used to stimulate blood vessel growth, according to a study published in the journal Science and Technology of Advanced Materials. The findings, by researchers at the Tecnico Lisboa and NOVA School ...
Recently, with the help of a steady-state strong magnetic field experimental device, scientists constructed nano-scale borate bioactive glass (Nano-HCA@BG), which can effectively reduce the biological toxicity of borate bioglass, ...
Domestic burning of wood and dung fuels in Neolithic homes would have exceeded modern internationally-agreed standards for indoor air quality, exposing inhabitants to unsafe levels of particulates.
A team of researchers have developed a biomimetic mineralization of calcium carbonate using a multifunctional peptide template that can self-supply mineral sources, which in this case is a supply of carbonate ions, the precursor ...
A new rubber band stretches, but then snaps back into its original shape and size. Stretched again, it does the same. But what if the rubber band was made of a material that remembered how it had been stretched? Just as our ...
When herring are fileted, more than half their weight becomes a low-value 'side stream' that never reaches our plates鈥攄espite being rich in protein and healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Now, scientists from Chalmers University ...
Lanthanides are rare-earth heavy metals with useful magnetic properties and a knack for emitting light. Researchers had long assumed that lanthanides' toxicity risk was low and therefore safe to implement in a number of high-tech ...
Don't look now, but you're surrounded. Really. Within arm's reach鈥攑robably even touching you鈥攁re troublesome, sticky, potentially even toxic, substances. Bad for the planet, permanent, maybe even bad for your health. ...
Scientists at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed a new biomaterial made entirely from discarded bullfrog skin and fish scales that could help in bone repair.
