Permeable and robust polymer-silica hybrid armor on cell catalyst for sustainable biomanufacturing
Whole-cell catalysis is one of the several central techniques in green biomanufacturing, which can be categorized into living cell catalysis, resting cell catalysis, and inactivated cell catalysis. Among these, inactivated cell catalysis features the.....»»
T-Mobile users enraged as “Un-carrier” breaks promise to never raise prices
FCC gets 1,600 complaints; users blast "deceptive advertising aimed at seniors." Enlarge (credit: Aurich Lawson) In 2017, Kathleen Odean thought she had found the last cell phone plan she would ever need. T-Mobile was of.....»»
Uranium science researchers investigate feasibility of intentional nuclear forensics
Despite strong regulations and robust international safeguards, authorities routinely interdict nuclear materials outside of regulatory control. Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are exploring a new method that w.....»»
Aging Might Not Be Inevitable

Researchers at the Industrial Sustainable Chemistry (ISC) group at the Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences have developed a new class of bio- and CO2 based PISOX polymers with surprising properties and applications......»»
Key mechanism of herpesvirus egress uncovered, offering new target for antiviral therapies
An international team of researchers, led by the Leibniz Institute of Virology (LIV), have uncovered crucial details on how herpesviruses exit the cell nucleus without compromising the integrity of the nuclear envelope. Herpesvirus infections are wid.....»»
New evaluation framework helps quantify supply and demand of carbon sequestration services
The Lancang Mekong River Basin (LMRB) connects six countries in Southeast Asia. To support the ecological, economic and social sustainable development of the LMRB, low carbon management services need to be implemented in each country within the basin.....»»
Aging-emulating biosystem derived from hTSCs
A research team from the Center for Translational Stem Cell Biology (CTSCB) under the LKS Faculty of Medicine at the University of Hong Kong (HKUMed) has developed the world's first cellular system that can be used to rapidly discover molecules for a.....»»
5 ways PCs are becoming more sustainable, from recycling to smarter design
PCs are always getting faster, but are they becoming more sustainable too? Here are five reasons to be optimistic......»»
Researchers find genetic stability in a long-term Panamanian hybrid zone of manakins
We often think of species as separate and distinct, but sometimes they can interbreed and create hybrids. When this happens consistently in a specific area, it forms what's known as a hybrid zone. These zones can be highly dynamic or remarkably stabl.....»»

ARMO launches behavioral-based cloud detection and response
ARMO announced its new ARMO Cloud Detection & Response solution, providing robust security for workloads. This new offering addresses the residual threats that may persist during runtime, even after thorough scanning during development and deployment.....»»
Rewriting the armadillo family tree: A new species, plus a name change for the state mammal of Texas
While their scaly armor and long claws look vaguely reptilian, armadillos belong to the same group of mammals as sloths and anteaters. There are nearly two dozen species of armadillos, from six-inch long "pink fairies" to giant armadillos that measur.....»»
Cell division: Before commitment, a very long engagement
Before a cell commits fully to the process of dividing itself into two new cells, it may ensure the appropriateness of its commitment by staying for many hours—sometimes more than a day—in a reversible intermediate state, according to a discovery.....»»
