Pathologists Invent Easy Way To Diagnose MRSA
Infectious disease specialists have developed a way to quickly diagnose the very dangerous, antibiotic-resistant infection called MRSA. By dropping a cartridge in a device the technology makes ... > more -
What Kills E Coli and Salmonella Bacteria?
Food scientists at The Ohio State University wanted to see if cooler water could kill bacteria on dirty dishes like E. coli and salmonella. The study found that even when dishes were washed in ... > more -
Environmental Engineers Use Algae To Capture Carbon Dioxide
Engineers have designed a simple, sustainable and natural carbon sequestration solution using algae. A team at Ohio University created a photo bioreactor that uses photosynthesis to grow algae, ... > more -

Materials Scientists Copy Beetle Anatomy To Develop New Coatings
Scientists at M.I.T. looking to add new chemical functionalities to spray coatings have turned to the beetle for inspiration. Some beetles that live in very arid climates get their drinking water by ... > more -
Environmental Scientists Use Fish Behavior To Monitor Water Quality
Researchers are using bluegills to detect industrial and agricultural spills in water supplies. Changes in the environment cause the fishes' behavior and breathing patterns to change. Electrodes are ... > more -

Mimicking Insects to Avoid Sinking Using Surface Tension
A new robot made of ultralight carbon-fiber can stand or slowly walk on water. The principle it uses is borrowed from insects -- surface tension tends to prevent the water's surface from breaking, ... > more -
Newly Sequenced Genome Could Shed Light on Human Diseases
Molecular biologists have completely sequenced the first dog genome. Understanding how genetics plays a role in canine diseases could lead to new treatments for diseases shared by humans, such as ... > more -
Entomologists Train Insects to Act Like Sniffing Dogs
If rewarded with sugary water, wasps can be trained in minutes to follow specific smells. The olfactory sensors in their antennae can sense chemicals in the air in concentrations as tiny as a few ... > more -
Biologists Help Perfumers Capture New Scents from Nature
To increase perfumers' palette with new scents from flowers, biologists now use a device that captures smells. A plant is covered with a glass dome and vapor is extracted and later analyzed. ... > more -
Scientist Measures Land Used by Lawns
Using census data, satellite images, aerial photographs, and computer simulations, a NASA scientist estimated that turf grass is the single-largest irrigated crop in the United States, three times ... > more
