A team of researchers at the University of Bayreuth in Germany has found that microplastics exposed to several weeks of weather are more easily absorbed by mouse cells than fresh microplastics. In their paper published in ...
A team of researchers from the Technical University of Denmark, the University of Copenhagen and Wageningen University and Research has built a tiny biomimetic 'soft cannon' to better understand how fungal spores are dispersed. ...
