Bromine is a big deal in various industries. It is used in many ways, from manufacturing to farming. However, grabbing it from seawater or brine is a tough job. Scientists have come up with a clever solution. They created a special structure called a Cd-MOF. This structure is super stable and can so
Fenugreek, a popular herb, thrives in sandy soils when given the right care. Scientists have been testing different amounts of compost to see how it affects fenugreek growth. They tested four different amounts of compost: none, 12 tons per hectare, 18 tons per hectare, and 24 tons per hectare. Thi
Chemists have found a clever way to add boron to certain types of molecules. They used a special copper-based catalyst to make this happen. This catalyst is made with a bulky guanidine ligand. It is a type of molecule that helps the copper do its job. This process is called protoborylation. It is a
In Uganda, healthcare workers are now receiving disability training. This is a big deal because people with disabilities often face hurdles when trying to get medical help. This can lead to worse health problems for them. The training is designed to help healthcare workers understand and support p
Salinity and drought are major problems for crops. They mess with how plants grow and produce food. These issues are getting worse because of climate change. So, scientists are looking for ways to help plants handle these stresses better. One promising method is to boost plants' relationships with h
The world of implementation science often relies on self-report measures. This is because many important factors are hard to observe directly. However, when surveys become too complex, people might rush through them or not pay full attention. This can lead to inaccurate data, which is a big problem
The world is facing a waste problem. Two methods stand out in handling organic waste: aerobic composting and anaerobic digestion. Both have their strengths and weaknesses. They rely on tiny helpers, called microbes, to break down waste. These microbes work in different ways depending on what they ar
Charities in Ontario, Canada, are key players in the fight for health equity. They tackle big issues like income gaps, housing problems, and discrimination. These groups use various strategies, from political actions to direct help, to make a difference. They often team up with others and push for c
