New research has found that two enzymes key for making lipids in plants live in different organelles, meaning organelle cooperation is crucial in lipid synthesis.

Empa and ETH Zurich scientists have developed a healing patch with a sensor function that can warn before the occurrence of dangerous leaks on sutures in the gastrointestinal tract, and seal the area in response.

According to research, adding blends of nutritionally important mineral salts could make noncaloric sweeteners seem more like the real thing.

Researchers have created a new energy-generating device using piezoelectric composites and carbon fiber-reinforced polymer. The new device transforms vibrations in the environment into electricity and could be used for self-powered sensors.

Researchers have demonstrated a new approach for making novel polyolefins that can be chemically deconstructed and re-polymerized without a loss of quality.

Digesting fish waste could be used to allow circular fish and vegetable farms to produce biogas.

Extensive study of all proteins in five wheat species as a basis for further research and targeted breeding of new varieties.

Researchers have discovered a new phase of matter. The new “chiral bose-liquid state” is a significant step forward for quantum physicists in describing how charged particles interact at the quantum level.

Researchers from the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) have proposed a new cost-effective strategy for synthesizing hybrid cathodes to achieve high-performance seawater electrolysis for hydrogen generation.

Researchers have developed a new way to use the abundant agro-waste products in non-food feedstocks. Using consolidated bio-saccharification (CBS), they were able to take lignocellulose and obtain lactic acid through a fermentation process.
