Researchers at Pitt have produced the most detailed image to date of a bacteriophage–phage for short–that has allowed them to see for the first time the structural makeup of the part of the phage that directly attaches ...
About 131 million years ago, an 11-foot-long ichthyosaur slammed snout first into the seafloor and was rapidly buried by sediments—a sequence of events that helped preserve not only her skeleton, but that of her unborn ...
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, pretty much everybody is familiar with this technology: paper-based rapid test strips, also called lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs). They enable easy detection of biomarkers that indicate the ...
A new study published by University of Kentucky Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment (CAFE) researchers in the journal Equine Veterinary Education sheds more light on how horse owners use veterinary ...
A research team led by Prof. Zhang Zhirong from the Hefei Institutes of Â鶹ÒùÔºical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a novel sensor that enables simultaneous, highly sensitive detection of multiple stable ...
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign researchers have developed a CRISPR-based diagnostic tool capable of detecting bloodstream infections in minutes without the need for nucleic acid amplification. The CRISPR-Cascade ...
When a company misses an earnings target, it usually faces some backlash: a drop in stock prices, negative headlines, and sometimes even CEO turnover. But when it misses a self-imposed climate goal, most often the response ...

Black students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Predominantly Black Institutions (PBIs) experience better mental health outcomes in several key areas compared to their peers at other institutions, ...
Chemical and biomolecular engineers at Georgia Tech have developed a plug-and-play platform that's simple, flexible, and easy to use without costly lab equipment, for detecting protein biomarkers of disease.
