Researchers from China explored a new treatment method for inflammatory bowel disease using ultrasmall Au25 — gold — nanoparticles. In previous studies, these nanoclusters have been found to effectively eliminate a variety of reactive oxygen species, a type of free radical molecule that can build up and damage DNA, RNA and proteins in a cell.

Researchers at the Baylor College of Medicine, Stanford School of Medicine as well as other institutions have identified a molecule in the blood which is produced during exercise and helps to reduce food intake and obesity.

A research network of Goethe University Frankfurt and collaborating institutes regard an interdisciplinary approach as a new opportunity to better understand biodiversity loss in order to be able to take more efficient countermeasures. To this end, they are studying the interactions between chemical pollution and biodiversity loss.

Alzheimer's is often associated with so-called plaques in the brain. However, these protein deposits on neurons are probably not solely responsible for the disease. A new study by researchers at the Ruhr University Bochum, for example, provides evidence that certain protein residues can also penetrate into the interior of the cells and lead to their death.

Multitudes of amateur chefs will soon enjoy perfect al dente pasta and cleaner kitchen walls, as new research shows how measurements with a ruler — not the mythologized throwing against the nearest vertical surface — may be the best way to confirm when pasta is fully cooked.

Researchers at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital have revealed in a study that the sperm count along with the serum testosterone in men who do physically demanding jobs is higher.

The digital twin technology is making waves in the healthcare industry with major pharma players and research institutes exploring the smart technology to unveil new opportunities and revolutionizing the sector like never before. Right from real-time simulation of a vaccine manufacturing process to visualizing the simulations for disease prevention and treatment, the digital twin technology boasts of innumerable advantages. Read on to find out more about this smart and innovative technology.

An experiment, elegant in its simplicity, helps explain why water becomes electrified when it touches hydrophobic surfaces.

Over the last decade, researchers have sounded the alarm on soil erosion being the biggest threat to global food security. As world governments moved to implement soil conservation practices, a new debate began: does agricultural soil erosion create a net organic carbon (OC) sink or source? In new research, two scientists address the soil organic carbon erosion paradox.

Researchers have revealed new and crucial insights into enhancing treatment and diagnosis of multiple myeloma which is a cancer of the plasma cells.
