Electrical Engineers Develop Microplasma Device to Detect Toxins
Electrical engineers have developed a new, portable lab that identifies chemicals by their unique color signatures. It is the first such device to be portable, allowing scientists to recognize ... > more -
FDA Approves Surgical Procedure to Alleviate Shoulder Pain
Patients who suffer from debilitating shoulder pain due to arthritis or to a torn rotator cuff may benefit from new kind of prosthesis. The procedure, which has been performed successfully in use in ... > more -
Materials Scientists Create Polymer Coating Against Fogged Glass
When moisture condenses on a cool surface, droplets can form that are the right size to scatter light, fogging up glass. A new polymer coating draws droplets into nanopores and transforms them into a ... > more -
Food Chemist Develops Protein-Based Batter for Healthier Frying
Deep-fried fish could get healthier with a new protein-based batter extracted from the muscle of discarded fish parts. When coated onto the fish it forms a barrier, locking in taste and moisture ... > more -
Mechanical Engineer Studies Nanoscale Effects of Hair Conditioners
Hair conditioners can help protect your hair by replacing natural oils that are lost while shampooing. But now, an atomic-force microscope reveals that some conditioners do not protect the hair ... > more -
Civil Engineers Test New Concrete for Stronger, More Durable Bridges
A new kind of concrete called Ductal will allow bridges to hold more weight and last longer. Made of a mixture of sand, cement, water, and small steel fibers, it is 10 times more expensive than ... > more -
Otolaryngologists Relieve Fluid-Filled Ear with Low-Tech Remedy
Ear infections are a common condition in children, reducing their hearing and often requiring surgery. A simple new device solves the problem for 85 percent of the patients. It unblocks the middle ... > more -
Polymer Sponge Catches Household Pollutants in Storm Drains
Storm drains fitted with a spongy material -- a synthetic polymer similar to those used in diapers -- can catch household pollutants such as paint and motor oil as they are washed off by the rain. ... > more -
Microbiologist Explores New Use for White Wine
Microbiologist Mark Daeschel is developing a new use for white wine--it is a very good cleaner of stains! The alcohol in wine can efficiently remove countertop stains and clean fruit, a property ... > more -
Cardiologists Employ Biomedical Engineering to Safeguard Heart Patients
To prevent strokes in at-risk patients who suffer from atrial fibrillation, an abnormal heart rhythm, researchers have devised a mechanical alternative to common drug treatments. In the procedure, ... > more
