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 -
New Tecnhique Reduces Flammable Exhaust Risks to Firefighters
Firefighters usually don't aim hydrants at smoke, to avoid producing steam that can come back and burn them. But smoke sometimes contains dangerous, flammable gases. Some U.S. fire departments are ... > 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 -
Incubator Enables MRI Scans on Preemies for Preventing Birth Asphyxia
Designed by a team of doctors, nurses, and engineers, a specially designed incubator allows premature babies to receive MRI scans to assess their health. The scans can measure many indicators, such ... > more -
Optical Scientists, Psychiatrists Develop Minimally Invasive Eye Test for Alzheimer's
Building upon a recent discovery that the same Alzheimer's disease process that goes on in the brain also occurs in the eye, researchers have developed a pair of optical tests that can determine the ... > more -
Environmental Engineers, Water Scientists Develop Children's Kit for Monitoring Water Health
Playing a role once reserved for environmental engineers, children are now helping to test the health of water in their local communities. A new kit comes equipped with everything needed to test the ... > more -
Astrophysicists Discover New Details of How Stars Collapse
A satellite called Swift is revealing that black holes have a messier birth than previously thought. Instead of being created in one instant, astrophysicists now believe after a star dies and ... > more -
Surgeons Combine Heat, Chemistry to Bolster Anti-Cancer Drugs
In efforts to boost the effectiveness of anti-cancer drugs, a new method called intra-peritoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy works by flushing a heated chemotherapy drug through tissue surrounding a ... > more -
Environmental Engineers Detect Turbines' Turbulence Effects
Wind farms may have an impact on local weather patterns. As environmental engineers have discovered, wind farm propellers create a lot of turbulence in their wake, mixing air up and down with effects ... > more
