Tech Xplore / UV glow test measures air disinfection performance in minutes
The effectiveness of air disinfection devices may now be measured in minutes, rather than hours, with a new technique from University of Michigan Engineering. This is important for researchers developing better antiviral ...
Medical Xpress / Just five minutes in cold water can boost mood, research shows
The health benefits of cold-water immersion have been closely studied in recent years, thanks to the growing popularity of cold-water swimming. Now new research from the University of Chichester has found that as little as ...
Medical Xpress / A redesigned endoscope offers a new way to look for early signs of ovarian cancer
Ovarian cancer remains the deadliest gynecologic cancer, largely because it is rarely found early. Symptoms are often vague, and existing screening approaches—such as blood tests and transvaginal ultrasound—can miss the disease ...
Phys.org / Spectacular fossil treasure trove pushes back origins of complex animals
A newly discovered fossil site in southwest China has transformed our understanding of how complex animal life emerged on Earth, revealing that many key animal groups had already evolved before the start of the Cambrian Period. ...
Tech Xplore / New method predicts the success of LLMs on untried tasks with high accuracy
A team from the Universitat Politècnica de València, part of the Valencian University Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence (VRAIN) and ValgrAI, has participated in the development of ADeLe, a new methodology that ...
Phys.org / Rudeness may be rewarded—as a response to rudeness
If you don't have anything nice to say, perhaps it's OK to say it anyway—if responding to someone who has treated you or your team rudely, new Cornell research suggests. Civil responses to disrespectful behavior remain the ...
Medical Xpress / World's largest study reveals new model to rule out penicillin allergy
Melbourne researchers have led the world's largest study confirming most patients labeled allergic to penicillin are not truly allergic. The study, described as a "game changer" by lead author Professor Jason Trubiano, demonstrates ...
Phys.org / Mesoporous silica catalyst enables α-allylation of simple ketones using allyl alcohols
A research team reports they have created an organic reaction called α-allylation with simple ketones and allyl alcohols. This work holds the potential for use in the development of next-generation catalysts. The research ...
Phys.org / Artemis II's moonbound toilet is working again to astronauts' relief after overnight fix
NASA's moonbound astronauts have reason to celebrate, and not just because their launch went so well. Their toilet is now working.
Medical Xpress / Uncontrolled scarring: Study reveals the cell sensor that turns healing into harm
Fibrosis is the body's way of patching up damage—a bit like fixing a pothole. When skin is cut or a muscle is injured, fibroblast cells rush in to make fibronectin and collagen, which are two major extracellular matrix proteins ...
Phys.org / How mitochondria organize our 'second genome'
EPFL scientists have discovered that a simple shape change in mitochondria helps cells evenly distribute their mitochondrial DNA, solving a long-standing puzzle.
Phys.org / Graphene 'nano-aquariums' capture atomic-resolution videos of gold atoms in solvents
A team led by scientists at the National Graphene Institute (NGI) at The University of Manchester has developed the first technique capable of capturing atomic‑resolution videos of individual gold atoms 'dancing' across a ...
