Cryptojacking, the sneaky act of using other people's devices for mining cryptocurrency, is a big problem, especially in wireless sensor networks (WSN) and Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Researchers have found a smart way to fight this by combining time series analysis with graph neural networks
In the world of cattle farming, the parasitic tick, Rhipicephalus microplus, is a big problem. These ticks can develop resistance to the chemicals, called acaricides, that farmers use to control them. Researchers wanted to understand how and why this happens, so they studied these ticks on a farm us
Acetogenic bacteria, known for turning carbon dioxide and hydrogen into acetate, have a unique way of gobbling up hydrogen. Scientists studied three types of these bacteria to see how fast they can consume hydrogen at different levels. Surprisingly, all three types followed a simple rule: the more h
Imagine a world where your smart devices chat behind your back, but in a good way! They're not gossiping about you, but working together to keep your data safe. That's what's happening with UbiPri and Ethereum blockchain. You see, UbiPri acts like a middleman, making sure the right messages get to t
Antibiotics have long been heroes in the medical world, battling bacterial infections with ease. But lately, bacteria have started fighting back, leading to a global health concern called antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This means some antibiotics don't work as well as they used to, making it crucia
In Thailand, certain bacteria are giving doctors a hard time by not responding to even the strongest antibiotics. To tackle these superbugs, doctors are trying out a drug called sulbactam on kids, but they're not sure how it affects children's bodies. A team of experts has started observing kids tak
Scientists explored how fluorine atoms and piperazine rings affect the toxicity of norfloxacin (NOR) and its degradation products (NOR-DPs). They used UV light and hydrogen peroxide (UV/H2O2) to break down NOR into eight smaller pieces (P1-P8). Interestingly, the toxicity levels against various cell
Ever thought about how algae can influence shrimp? A fascinating study looked into this by focusing on Litopenaeus vannamei, a common shrimp species. Researchers examined how adding a specific algae, Haematococcus pluvialis, to shrimp food affects their growth, immune system, and gut bacteria at dif
Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion, or CCH, is a big player in making people's brains work less well over time. This happens when blood flow to the brain is reduced. Part of the puzzle involves how our bodies handle a nutrient called choline. When we eat food with choline, our gut bacteria break it dow
Ever wondered how ginsenosides, the compounds that make ginseng so special, are transformed into minor ginsenosides? This story revolves around Aspergillus niger NG1306, a fungus that plays a key role in this process. Scientists used leaves from Panax notoginseng to kickstart the fungus' growth. The
