Tech Xplore / Ion pumping platform simultaneously cleans salty wastewater and recovers valuable metals
Industrial wastewater from electronics manufacturing, metal processing and other sectors often contains two difficult pollutants at once: high levels of salt and toxic heavy metals. Current treatment methods typically address ...
Medical Xpress / Soy lysolecithin counters high-salt diet-induced hypertension and cognitive impairment
High-salt (HS) intake is a major global health concern, closely linked to hypertension and growing evidence of cognitive and emotional decline. Although salt is a routine part of daily diets, long-term overconsumption can ...
Medical Xpress / 'Proust's madeleine' finally explained by neuroscience
A team of CNRS scientists has pinpointed the brain mechanisms behind the famous "Proust's madeleine" phenomenon, in which smells bring back vivid, emotional memories.
Phys.org / Tabby's star may be orbited by a planetary-mass companion
By analyzing data from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and conducting new radial velocity measurements, U.K. and French astronomers have found evidence that the mysterious Tabby's star may be orbited by ...
Phys.org / Before North and South America were connected, their mammals found a way to intermingle
Until the Panamanian isthmus formed about 2.8 million years ago, North and South America were isolated continents with unique groups of animals. A riot of marsupials—mammals with brood pouches—and sloths in the south contrasted ...
Phys.org / What this western Pennsylvania '90s Pizza Hut reveals about nostalgia
A Pizza Hut in southwest Pennsylvania was recently highlighted for preserving its retro 1990s appearance, even as hundreds of other locations have closed across the United States.
Phys.org / Surprising boiling behavior in liquids could advance future space missions
When astronauts travel deeper into space, every drop of fuel becomes critical, and keeping those fuels stable for months or even years is one of the biggest engineering challenges facing future missions. Now, University of ...
Medical Xpress / Hyperuricemia predicts mortality with chronic kidney disease
Hyperuricemia independently predicts mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD), according to a study published online July 13 in the Journal of Clinical Medicine.
Phys.org / Newly discovered parasite linked to coastal seabird deaths

Medical Xpress / Chemicals present in drinking water may carry a hidden risk tied to uterine cancer
In a recent study, researchers examined whether certain chemicals present in public drinking water are linked to uterine cancer, the most common gynecological cancer in the United States and one that has been steadily increasing ...
Phys.org / New method flags hurricane rapid intensification up to five days ahead
The rapid intensification of a hurricane ranks among the most dangerous weather events on Earth. Storms such as Hurricane Michael, which crashed ashore in the Florida Panhandle with winds of 160 mph (about 257 km/h), and ...
Phys.org / Moon's thick crust could amplify elusive gravitational-wave signals
Gravitational waves are tiny ripples in the fabric of spacetime that are produced when massive objects in the cosmos accelerate or collide. By detecting these waves, astrophysicists can study various cosmic events, including ...
