Scientists have come up with a new way to detect tiny amounts of sulfadiazine (SDZ) using a special nanopolypropylene surface. They created a molecularly imprinted polyacrylamide (PP@MIP) probe that works with a technique called Resonance Rayleigh Scattering (RRS). This probe helps to quickly and ac

These days, pharmaceutical companies are big fans of medicinal plants. Why? Because they are cheap and have fewer side effects than regular drugs. But, identifying these plants can be tough, time-consuming, and prone to errors. That's why researchers are excited about automatic classification of the
Did you know that tiny organisms called protists can play a big role in making the soil healthier? Scientists decided to see how these microscopic creatures affect soil when it's polluted with a heavy metal called cadmium. They focused on one type of protist called Colpoda steinii. Soil naturally h
Scientists have discovered that the process used to make CrOx catalysts from MIL-101(Cr) greatly influences their ability to oxidize chlorobenzene (CB). Calcinating in an argon atmosphere keeps the organic parts intact and prevents the CrOx clusters from clumping together. This results in many expos
