Sugar solution matches antibiotics in treating cow infections
A concentrated sugar solution could be just as effective as antibiotics at treating a common infection in dairy cows, according to a new study led by researchers at Penn State. The results were recently published in the journal Frontiers in Veterinar.....»»
Researchers unveil chip for quick antibiotic monitoring in water
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global health crisis because of microbes, such as bacteria, becoming resistant to antibiotics. A leading factor in this rise is the improper use and disposal of antibiotics in the environment......»»
Researchers highlight role "workhorse protein" plays in keeping nervous system running smoothly
A team of researchers from the University of Massachusetts Amherst is the first to show how proteins called "chaperones" are vital in ensuring that neurons can transmit signals to one another. When this neurotransmission breaks down, devastating dise.....»»
Hybrid dune experiment tests erosion resistance during storms
Last week, a 100-meter-long test dune was raised on the coast near Monster. A hybrid dune, consisting of a combination of sand and hard elements. Researchers from TU Delft are monitoring how different configurations erode during stormy weather condit.....»»
Sustainability not an important criterion in top executives" remuneration
A study by an international team of researchers from the University of Tübingen and the HEC business school in Paris has shown that the payment of bonuses to executive board members in large European corporations is only minimally influenced by whet.....»»
Cellular RNA plays key role in antiviral defense, study finds
Scientists have uncovered a new role for a cell's own RNA in fending off attacks by RNA viruses. Some of the cell's RNA molecules, researchers found, help regulate antiviral signaling. These signals are part of the intricate coordination of immune re.....»»
Why don"t more women choose to propose to their male partners?
The Christmas period isn't just for presents, sparkling lights and too much festive food—it's also prime time for couples to get engaged. And for heterosexual couples, this is likely to happen in a specific way. The man will do the asking......»»
