There's a big problem with certain chemicals. Nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) and radioactive iodine can hurt people and the environment. Scientists are working hard to find ways to detect and clean up these harmful substances. They've created two special materials called HTAEA and HTMB. These are l
Childhood trauma can have lasting impacts on the brain, influencing everything from mental health to how genes function. Scientists have been studying this for years, but a new study takes a closer look at how these experiences affect the brain's gene activity. The study focused on the prefrontal c
When someone gets hurt or commits a crime, figuring out what drugs they took can be crucial. Usually, experts look for drugs in blood or other body fluids. But what if those aren't available? That's where things get tricky. Sometimes, the only clues left are on clothes, bedding, or other items. The
