According to new research by Cornell and Binghamton University scientists, metal oxide nanoparticles - commonly used as food coloring and anti-caking agents in the commercial ingredients industry - may damage parts of the human intestine.
The hybrid "eBiobots" are the first to combine soft materials, living muscle and microelectronics, said researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Northwestern University and collaborating institutions. They described their centimeter-scale biological machines in the journal
According to new research published today in the Journal of the American Heart Association, an open-access, peer-reviewed journal of the American Heart Association, sleeping an inconsistent number of hours each night and falling asleep at different times may increase the risk of developing a
A new genetic test can identify dogs at risk of a potentially fatal condition that causes excessive bleeding and bruising in the hours and days after surgery.
As we have learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, the microorganisms that cause various diseases can rapidly change into versions that avoid detection and treatment. However, researchers presenting in ACS Infectious Diseases have discovered a process that could aid in detecting these elusive in
