Everything, from the food we eat to the clothes we wear to cars we drive, has global implications, requiring resources from distant places and generating pollution…
Scientists at Japan’s Hokkaido University have developed light-powered molecular motors that repetitively bend and unbend, bringing us closer to molecular robots. Researchers are working on mimicking…
Researchers have discovered a catalyst that performs highly selective conversion of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide into ethylene — an important source material for the chemical…
Researchers at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum and the Technische Universität Dortmund have examined how the interactions between solvents and biomolecules change at high pressure. With infrared spectroscopy…
Scientists and doctors in recent decades have made vast leaps in the treatment of cardiac problems — particularly with the development in recent years of so-called…
When rain falls on a lotus leaf, the leaf doesn’t get wet. Thanks to its special structure, the water drops roll off without wetting the surface.…
Physicists have confirmed the existence of a new form of atomic nuclei, and the fact that it’s not symmetrical challenges the fundamental theories of physics that…
In movies and television series, audio tapes or other devices self-destruct after delivering the details of impossible missions. Scientists at the Georgia Institute of Technology have…
An international team has discovered an elegant way to decouple organic nanosheets grown on metal surfaces. After iodine intercalation, measurements at the synchrotron source BESSY II…
A BGSU photochemical sciences research team has shown that a new and unusual reaction path in chemistry occurs not only in the gas phase, but also…
Scientists are getting closer to directly observing how and why water is essential to life as we know it. A study in this week’s Proceedings of…
A combined team of researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and University of California has found a way to degrade ordinary plastics in a way…
Drug company Suven Lifestyles Sciences has won a patent each and every from Canada and Hong Kong for molecules to be evolved as medicine for remedy…
An abundance of aerosol particles in the atmosphere can increase the lifespans of large storm clouds by delaying rainfall, making the clouds grow larger and live…
Global emissions of ethane, an air pollutant and greenhouse gas, are on the uptick again, according to a new study led by the University of Colorado…
Sure, there’s not much you can do to stop time. You can however, improve the quality of your life within the time you have — and…
After their nanorods were accidentally created when an experiment didn’t go as planned, the researchers gave the microscopic, unplanned spawns of science a closer look. Chemist…
Using tunneling ionization and ultrashort laser pulses, scientists have been able to observe the structure of a molecule and the changes that take place within billionths…
Researchers have developed a compound that can transform near-infrared light into broadband white-light, offering a cheap, efficient means to produce visible light. The emitted light is…
Following earlier reports that the claims for discovery of these elements have been fulfilled [1, 2], the discoverers have been invited to propose names and the…
CSIR UGC NET 2016: The e-Admission Certificate for the Joint CSIR-UGC Test for JRF/LS test, which is scheduled to be held on 19 June, has been…
The arriving of a skinny and light-weight pc that even rolls up like a work of paper may not be within the some distance far away…
Researchers from the Institute of Molecular Science and Applied sciences (ISTM-CNR, Italy), Moscow Institute of Physics and Generation (MIPT), and the College of Milan have experimentally…
Prior to now decade, many massive pharmaceutical firms have moved to the use of green-chemistry practices for drug discovery, construction and production. Those companies come with…
A analysis team led via Professor Mochida Tomoyuki (Kobe College Graduate Faculty of Science) and PhD scholar Funasako Yusuke (Tokyo College of Science, Yamaguchi) has evolved…
