Researchers from University of Tsukuba have discovered that virus-like nanoparticles can promote the multicellular organization and reproduction of host bacteria. These particles, which are evolutionarily related to phages ...
Materials that can maintain a magnetized state by themselves without an external magnetic field (i.e., permanent magnets) are called ferromagnets. Ferroelectrics can be thought of as the electric counterpart to ferromagnets, ...
Wounds that are superficial for some can be life-threatening for others. With diabetic wounds, healing can be slow, particularly in the feet, increasing the tissue's susceptibility to infection. Foot ulcers and other diabetic ...
A team of material scientists recently outlined the state of inducing piezoelectricity in distorted rutile TiO2 for enhanced tetracycline hydrochloride degradation through photopiezocatalysis. The team was led by Prof. Qi ...
Imaging the hot turbulence of aircraft propulsion systems may now be possible with sturdy sheets of composite materials that twist light beams, according to research led by the University of Michigan and Air Force Research ...
New materials for producing oxygen may challenge traditional production methods. This is exciting news, because pure oxygen is in demand for many areas in industry and medicine.
A University of Houston researcher is reporting a new method to detect cancer which could make cancer detection as simple as taking a blood test. With a 98.7% accuracy rate, the method—which combines PANORAMA imaging with ...
A research team has successfully synthesized three different crystalline phases of molybdenum boride with a strong Raman signal enhancement performance.
Recently, a research group from Hefei Institutes of Physical Sciences of Chinese Academy of Sciences, developed an antielectric potential growth method for large-area preparation of Au-Ag heterodimer arrays. The prepared ...
Nanoplastics can accumulate in developing hearts, according to a study published in Environment International by biologist Meiru Wang from Leiden University. Her research on chicken embryos sheds new light on how these tiny ...
