Imagine tiny bubbles dancing through water, helping tiny algae grow bigger. These aren't regular bubbles; they're micro-nano bubbles, or MNBs for short. Scientists used them to boost the power of Chlorella vulgaris algae to clean water. The world's water is facing a big problem: antibiotics are pol
Imagine using sound to transport medicine in your body. Scientists have a new trick up their sleeve. They are using red blood cells (RBCs), which are safe and naturally break down. Usually, attaching tiny particles called nanoparticles (NPs) to RBCs is complicated and involves many steps. However, t
A small Finnish company has made a big splash in the tech world. They've developed a special coating that makes screens and surfaces smudge-free. This isn't any ordinary coating – it's so thin you can't even see it. It can be used on metal, glass, and plastic. It protects devices from scratches, smu
Noah Lyles, the Olympic track star, has been making waves in the world of entertainment, most recently by praising WWE legend Rey Mysterio. Fresh off his victory in the 100m at the Paris 2024 Olympics, Lyles has been exploring new horizons, even dabbling in the world of streaming. His recent venture
Lake Mattamuskeet, the largest lake in North Carolina, has been dealing with a long-term problem called eutrophication. This process has made the water quality worse and created a perfect environment for harmful cyanobacteria to thrive. Scientists have been concerned about these blooms because some
Overnight and early Sunday, Israeli airstrikes in Gaza killed scores of people, according to local health officials. Simultaneously, Israeli police arrested three individuals after flares were fired at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's home in Caesarea. The Israeli military also advanced further i
Scientists are working to better plan and track the treatment, control, and eventual elimination of human onchocerciasis in Brazil. They've studied 27 different locations and checked 3, 974 people. By looking at the different infection rates in each area, they've grouped them into four categories. T
Did you know that the far side of the moon, the part we never see from Earth, had its own share of volcanic activity? This was proven by a recent study that analyzed rocks and dirt brought back by China's Chang'e-6 spacecraft. Scientists found fragments of volcanic rock that were over 2 billion year
Scientists have been mixing things up to create stronger and smarter materials. They've been blending Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) with Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) and Zinc Oxide (ZnO) to make composites with super electrical and mechanical properties. The goal? To see how these tiny fillers can boost PVA's
Have you ever wondered how some plants can survive extreme conditions like drought? One such plant is Pseudoroegneria libanotica, a tough grass from the Triticeae tribe. Scientists discovered 108 special genes in this plant, known as bZIP genes, which play a key role in helping plants cope with stre
