A new approach has been developed to harvest detailed chemical information on radioactive and/or enriched stable isotopes. The approach is much more efficient, requiring 1,000 times less material than previous methods, with no loss of data quality.

Researchers used UV light to create slow electrons. The wavelength of the UV light can be used to control the energy of the electrons and thus their speed and could help improve the analysis of radiation damage and optimize chemical reactions.

Scientists have shown that desirable agronomic traits of shorter stem length and early maturity can be introduced into black rice, which is known to be more nutritious than white rice.

According to research, early exposure to an environmental chemical called polychlorinated biphenyls, made it more difficult for mice to recover from sound-related trauma sustained later in life.

Researchers have uncovered two proteins that are unique to viable sperm, offering men with the most severe form of male infertility both a non-invasive diagnostic test and more information about their chances to one day become a parent through in vitro fertilization.

Diverting streams and rivers can have significant impact on how long it takes microplastic particles to reach the open sea.

Researchers have facilitated technology development for measuring the movement of electrons in nanostructures at high temporal and spatial resolution, in a manner that will be invaluable for optimizing nanostructure performance.

A study about a class of materials called associative polymers appears to challenge a long-held understanding of how the materials, which have unique self-healing and flow properties, function at the molecular level.

Scientists have found a way to design materials that manage to be both good at absorbing vibrations and still stiff enough not to collapse under pressure.

An AI-based mass spectrometric technique has been developed that can determine the monomeric sequence of a polymer, facilitating the development of new materials.
