Inhalable molecules neutralize SARS-CoV-2 in mice
Nanofitins, which are derived from a protein found in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius—an archaeal microorganism found in hot springs—successfully neutralized SARS-CoV-2 in mice and were well-tolerated. When inhaled by the rodents, the engineered nanofi.....»»
New IT survey finds that Apple deployments are tied to positive business outcomes
Apple’s growth in the enterprise has been well documented over the years. What hasn’t been well documented is how much Apple deployments contribute to positive business success. In a new survey today released by Kandji, nearly all IT professional.....»»

Scientists confirm decades-old theory of non-uniform distribution of electron density in aromatic molecules
Scientists from the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry Prague, the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences, and Palacký University Olomouc, have once again successfully uncovered the mysteries of the world of molecules and.....»»
For a new approach to fighting malaria, study focuses on special RNA molecules in human malaria parasite
The mosquito-borne infectious disease malaria resulted in about 241 million clinical episodes and 627,000 deaths in 2020. In young children and pregnant women living in areas where the disease is endemic, a major cause of death is Plasmodium falcipar.....»»
Researchers produce polymers from ballbot-type carbenes for the first time
N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are small, reactive ring molecules that bond well with metallic surfaces, and which over the past few years have attracted a great deal of interest in the field of the stable chemical modification of metallic surfaces......»»
Quantum computer unveils atomic dynamics of light-sensitive molecules
Researchers at Duke University have implemented a quantum-based method to observe a quantum effect in the way light-absorbing molecules interact with incoming photons. Known as a conical intersection, the effect puts limitations on the paths molecule.....»»
Two networks, two realities, one big problem
National news coverage from the two largest broadcast outlets, CNN and Fox News, not only reflects growing political polarization in America, but in a recent publication, researchers at Virginia Tech have shown that partisan and inflammatory broadcas.....»»
New experimental research measures the speed of molecular charge migration for the first time
To discover how light interacts with molecules, the first step is to follow electron dynamics, which evolve at the attosecond timescale. The dynamics of this first step have been called charge migration (CM). CM plays a fundamental role in chemical r.....»»
How the Southern Ocean controls global climate feedbacks
The Southern Ocean: How does this body of water and its relationship with clouds contribute to the world's changing climate?.....»»
Chemists successfully use light to regulate structural conversion of chiral molecules
A team of chemists from the University of Münster have developed a novel concept in which a mixture of molecules that behave like mirror images is converted to a single form using light as external energy source. The conversion has applications in t.....»»
New project examines how the expectations for forests can be met in more sustainable ways
Forests plays many vital roles: They provide a natural habitat for animals, plants and other organisms. They contribute to soil protection and water conservation, carbon storage and clean air......»»
Wildfires contribute to nutrient-rich, murky water in lakes
Warmer temperatures and increasing drought severity associated with climate change are contributing to more frequent and more severe wildfires across North America......»»
Anti-inflammatory properties of black soldier fly larvae oil show promise for conditions such as ulcerative colitis
Research conducted at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem has shed light on the anti-inflammatory properties of black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) oil. Led by Prof. Betty Schwartz, from the Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Environment at the Hebrew Unive.....»»
A new way to identify chiral molecules with light could vastly improve detection efficiency
Chiral molecules are those that have two versions that are mirror images, like our right and left hands. These molecules have the same structure but different properties when they interact with other molecules, including those inside our bodies. This.....»»
The Impact of Air Condition Timer On Indoor Air Quality
By controlling airflow, humidity, and pollution levels, air conditioning timers may have a major effect on IAQ. Aside from their obvious comfort-enhancing function, air conditioning systems also contribute significantly to a hygienic and pleasant ind.....»»
Study validates the simple view of reading for enhancing second and foreign language learners" experience
The simple view of reading (SVR) is a widely accepted theory that attempts to define the skills that contribute to early reading comprehension. It attributes a person's reading comprehension ability to two skills—word recognition (decoding) and lan.....»»
Making the most out of boreal plant resources
Plants produce molecules to interact with their environment and protect themselves against external threats. These molecules can also have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, some of which are beneficial to human health. Thes.....»»
Molecule identified that could be key for a new wave of drugs to target obesity and bone diseases
Scientists have identified a molecule that plays a key role in how cells detect when they are being pushed or pulled which could lead to the development of future drugs for obesity, osteoporosis, and inflammatory diseases......»»
Nano-thin "liquid-like" coatings may pave the way for a "self-cleaning" world
