An enzyme type noted in several cancers is the family of adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs). These enzymes convert adenosines in double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) into inosines, which cells read as guanosines. As such, ...
Imagine a bacterial cell—one of the multi-drug-resistant varieties that keep infectious disease experts up at night—blown apart like a microscopic firecracker.
Imagine a computer that does not rely only on electronics but uses light to perform tasks faster and more efficiently. A collaboration between two research teams from Tampere University in Finland and Université Marie et ...
By combining artificial intelligence and sensors that can see beyond visible light, Arkansas researchers have developed a system that exceeds human discernment when it comes to measuring herbicide-induced stress in plants.
Scientists at the University of Nottingham have discovered surface patterns that can drastically reduce bacteria's ability to multiply on plastics, which means that infections on medical devices, such as catheters, could ...
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a common bacterium that lives in the intestines of animals and humans, and it is often used to identify fecal contamination within the environment. E. coli can also easily develop resistance ...
A team of researchers at the University of Nottingham have developed new AI tools to encourage chemists and chemical engineers to make their processes more sustainable.
Nernst's theorem—a general experimental observation presented in 1905 that entropy exchanges tend to zero when the temperature tends to zero—has been directly linked to the second principle of thermodynamics in a paper ...
Antarctic krill is a key species in the Antarctic marine ecosystem as an important food source for many species, such as whales, seals and penguins. However, the small crustaceans are increasingly targeted as part of a growing ...
Imagine you're sitting at a pond, listening to the din of croaking frogs. You want to know how many frogs are in the pond, but you can't pick out the individual croaks—only the combined sound rising and falling in volume ...
