Exhibit Delves into Science of Taste and Smell
An exhibit at San Francisco's Exploratorium explains the science of cooking and eating, and in particular how we taste food. Our sense of taste comes from a combination of smell receptors in the nose ... > more -
Veterinarians Show Consoling Dogs Does Not Relieve Their Panic
A new study shows that dogs can get very upset during thunderstorms, whether or not their owner holds them. The study measured the stress hormone cortisol to be up to three times normal levels while ... > more -
Microbiologists and Astrobiologists Help Kids Discover New Species
Extremophiles are microbes that have adapted to extreme environments, such as Utah's Great Salt Lake. But new microorganisms can be found in everyday places, and scientists are showing school kids ... > more -
Biochemists Create Microbicidal Coating to Fight Hospital Infections
New bandages with microbicidal coating kill the most harmful bacteria on contact. The coating is washable and can also be used on hospital gowns and bed sheets, which will help reduce the risk of ... > more -
Researchers Apply DNA Biology to Vaccination Technique
Spraying viral genes directly through the skin is a new technique that turns infinitesimal amounts of DNA into an effective vaccine. If approved for use in humans, the new procedure could save lives ... > 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 -
Chemists Steal Engineering Tricks from Sponges
Sponges are the homes of colonies of tiny marine animals, and wonders of miniaturized engineering. They employ complex structural arrangements, the strongest glasses known to man, and even ... > more -
Ecologists Deploy Wireless Sensors for Early Detection of Wildfires
New fire-sensing devices can spot a fire in its earliest stages, up to six miles away, and they can relay the information to emergency responders through a computer network and even automatically ... > more -
Plant Scientists Graft Apple Trees to Select Disease-Resistant Traits
Grafting -- an ancient way of cloning plants -- enables plant scientists to create new varieties of apples. The selected genetic traits allow trees to resist pests with less pesticides, and to make ... > more -
Chemist's Glue Borrows Unique Amino Acid from Mollusk
Chemists combined an exotic form of an amino acid -- used by mussels to stick to rocks -- with soy flour to make a new, high-strength adhesive. The new glue helps in manufacturing natural-looking ... > more -
