Researchers have revealed that the levels of PFAS in mothers’ blood during pregnancy is associated with their children’s brain structure and function. Research has also implicated blood PFAS levels in adverse health outcomes, especially hormone biosynthesis, metabolism, and immune system function.

Scientists have developed a new “periodic cooking” method that optimally cooks both the yolk and white of a boiled egg, enhancing texture and nutritional value. By alternately immersing the egg in hot and cool water, this technique achieves better results than traditional boiling or sous vide methods.

Scientists have long suspected the keto diet might be able to calm an overactive immune system and help some people with diseases like multiple sclerosis. Now, they have reason to believe it could be true.

During cheese ripening, specific peptides are key to achieving the rich kokumi flavor found in aged cheeses. Researchers at the Leibniz-Institute for Food Systems Biology have introduced an innovative method to rapidly and accurately analyze these flavor-enhancing peptides.

Researchers have developed Tetris, a revolutionary technology, that is capable of capturing the diversity of protein interactions on site to inform accurate cancer diagnoses, enabling the personalization of ensuing treatments.

Companies that grow cannabis, the food industry, pharmaceutical companies – they all either have their own laboratories or commission experts to analyze the cannabis and carry out quality control. Together with its partner companies Retsch and CEM, Shimadzu now offers solution packages to laboratories that cover the entire testing process, including grinding, preparation and analysis.

Researchers have developed a novel sensor that helps in quick, real-time, measurement of markers such as cholesterol and lactate which are crucial for the early detection of diseases.

A team including researchers from the Texas A&M University School of Public Health and School of Medicine has found that high resolution mass spectrometry could be a valuable tool for identifying and assessing air-borne contaminants produced by natural and man-made disasters.

Forever chemicals i.e. per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are even found in remote places such as the Arctic Ocean. A study has found that the PFAS are not confined to this water body and instead exports these forever chemicals to the North Atlantic Ocean.

Researchers at The Ohio State University have made a breakthrough in understanding why leishmaniasis lesions are painless, uncovering potential pathways for non-narcotic pain medication development. Their findings not only deepen knowledge of the disease affecting a million new patients annually but also opens doors to new pain management therapies.
