When researchers finally cracked open the canisters from asteroid Bennu, they were not just sifting through dust. They were staring at a chemical time capsule packed with sugars, amino acids, salt ...

A research team has uncovered key molecular insights into how the hybrid rice variety Liangyou 287 (LY287) achieves superior ...

UNSW researchers found that some POE encapsulants can trigger severe corrosion in TOPCon solar modules, causing up to 55% power loss under damp-heat conditions. Their study highlights that module ...

Individual mammalian cells contain billions of protein molecules, which must be synthesized, deployed, and removed with ...

One of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease is the clumping of proteins called Tau, which form tangled fibrils in the brain.

A new machine-learning-based approach to mapping real-time tumor metabolism in brain cancer patients, developed at the ...

Hydroperoxides are strong oxidants that have a significant influence on chemical processes in the atmosphere. Now, an ...

iPhone users face this choice every time they need directions: Stick with the pre-installed Apple Maps, or switch to Google Maps. A decade ago, the answer felt obvious, but today, it's not as clear.

MIT scientists have found that an amino acid called cysteine can help the gut heal itself. In mouse studies, a cysteine-rich diet activated immune cells that release a molecule speeding up tissue ...

Tryptophan, the essential amino acid behind the Thanksgiving myth that eating turkey can make you sleepy, has been found to exist on Bennu, a small asteroid that swings by our planet about every six ...

Researchers discovered that the common amino acid arginine can block harmful Aβ aggregation and reduce its toxic effects in Alzheimer’s disease models. In flies and mice, oral arginine lowered plaque ...
