Medical Xpress / Regenerating lost lymph nodes with bioengineered tissues
The rising incidence of cancer worldwide has led to an increasing number of surgeries that involve the removal of lymph nodes. Although these procedures play a major role in cancer staging and preventing the spread of malignancies, ...
Tech Xplore / Off-grid filtration technology can remove over 99% of nanoplastics smaller than 50 nm
Professor Jeong-Min Baik's research group of the SKKU School of Advanced Materials Science and Engineering has developed a reusable electrokinetic filtration platform capable of filtering more than 99% of ultrafine nanoplastic ...
Phys.org / Ancient giant kangaroos could hop to it when they needed to, hindlimb study suggests
Giant ancestors of modern-day kangaroos—which previous research has estimated could weigh up to 250 kilograms—may have been able to hop in short bursts, according to research published in Scientific Reports.
Phys.org / Chimpanzees are better at solving resource dilemmas in larger, more tolerant groups
Despite being one of the most cooperative species on the planet, humans routinely fail to manage shared resources sustainably. We overfish from the oceans, burn fossil fuels, and over-prescribe antibiotics; behaviors that ...
Phys.org / Humanity's oldest known cave art has been discovered in Sulawesi
When we think of the world's oldest art, Europe usually comes to mind, with famous cave paintings in France and Spain often seen as evidence this was the birthplace of symbolic human culture. But new evidence from Indonesia ...
Phys.org / Experiments bring Enceladus' subsurface ocean into the lab
Through new experiments, researchers in Japan and Germany have recreated the chemical conditions found in the subsurface ocean of Saturn's moon, Enceladus. Published in Icarus, the results show that these conditions can readily ...
Phys.org / The art of custom-intercalating 42 metals into layered titanates
A research team affiliated with UNIST has reported a novel synthesis strategy that enables the direct intercalation of a wide range of metal cations into the interlayer spaces of layered titanate (LT) structures. This approach ...
Phys.org / Arctic Weather Satellite paves way for constellation observation
Already recognized for its excellence and even adopted for operational weather forecasting, the European Space Agency's Arctic Weather Satellite has now fulfilled its most important role. This small prototype mission has ...
Phys.org / Multiwavelength variability reveals dust structure in quasars
A research team has investigated quasar variability by tracking optical to mid-infrared (MIR) wavelengths of variability information. This multiband joint analysis provides an opportunity to probe the dust structure in the ...
Medical Xpress / High-dose inhaled nitric oxide shows early promise as a potential antimicrobial therapy
Overuse of antibiotics has accelerated the development of bacterial resistance to conventional drugs, a global health crisis projected to result in more than 10 million deaths annually by 2050. The multidrug-resistant bacterium ...
Medical Xpress / Dietary supplement may protect against inflammation-related injury and death by enhancing kidney function
As soon as you are wounded—whether from grabbing a hot pan or contracting the flu—you begin a unique journey through variable symptoms toward either recovery or death. This journey is called your disease trajectory, and ...
Tech Xplore / Benchmarking framework reveals major safety risks of using AI in lab experiments
While artificial intelligence (AI) models have proved useful in some areas of science, like predicting 3D protein structures, a new study shows that it should not yet be trusted in many lab experiments. The study, published ...
