Scientists have developed a technology that may help humans survive on the moon. In a study published in the journal Joule, researchers extracted water from lunar soil and used it to convert carbon dioxide into oxygen and ...
By using a genetic technique developed at UT Southwestern Medical Center that forces cells to rid themselves of mitochondria, researchers are gaining new insights into the function of these critical organelles. Their findings, ...
The manufacturing and deployment of hybrid and electric vehicles is on the rise, contributing to ongoing efforts to decarbonize the transport industry. While cars and smaller vehicles can be powered using lithium batteries, ...
Replacing traditional fossil fuels with clean, renewable energy sources is expected to solve environmental issues and alleviate the energy crisis. As a novel energy conversion device, fuel cells are capable of efficiently ...
The same dirt that clings to astronauts' boots may one day keep their lights on. In a study published in Device, researchers created solar cells made out of simulated moon dust. The cells convert sunlight into energy efficiently, ...
Under the right conditions, duckweed essentially farms itself. Wastewater, ponds, puddles, swamps—you name it. If there's enough sunlight and carbon dioxide, the aquatic plant can grow freely. But that's not all that makes ...
For organs to develop, grow and regenerate, cells must proliferate. But when that process goes awry, leading to uncontrolled cell growth, cancer can emerge.
The pathogen C. diff—the most common cause of health care-associated infectious diarrhea—can use a compound that kills the human gut's resident microbes to survive and grow, giving it a competitive advantage in the infected ...
Producing clean hydrogen energy usually involves the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which has the unfortunate drawback of being sluggish and inefficient. Catalysts can fast-track this process, but it is no easy task finding ...
