Metabolic engineering has enabled the construction of efficient microbial cell factories, but cellular aging and the accumulation of toxic metabolites during prolonged fed-batch fermentation induce metabolic stress, which ultimately reduces cell productivity. Extending cellular lifespan […]
The gene editing tool known as CRISPR-Cas9 is changing what’s possible for treating a wide range of diseases caused by genetic mutations. But so far, attempts to use the technology to address brain-based genetic disorders […]
Each year, a single cow can belch about 200 pounds of methane. The powerful greenhouse gas is 27 times more potent at trapping heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide. For decades, scientists and farmers […]
In a new study published in Horticulture Research, a team of researchers from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has demonstrated that designed synthetic microbial communities (SynComs) can significantly boost […]
A leading bioethicist at Hiroshima University is calling for an anticipatory, rather than reactive, approach to ethics after a Japanese government panel in August backed a report that brings the country a step closer to […]
NIMS, in collaboration with Nagoya University, Gifu University, and the University of Adelaide, has developed a method for simultaneously imaging DNA and RNA inside cells using harmless infrared to near-infrared light.This post was originally published […]
Researchers at the University of Tokyo have built a microscope that can detect a signal over an intensity range 14 times wider than conventional microscopes. Moreover, the observations are made label-free, that is, without the […]
Researchers at Fraunhofer IOF in collaboration with Airbus have developed a hyperspectral spectrometer as part of the “Rainbow” project. The technology enables the creation of digital field maps that can be used in agriculture as […]
Scientists have discovered a fern from South China that naturally forms tiny crystals containing rare earth elements (REEs). This breakthrough opens the door to a promising new way of “green mining” of these minerals called […]
Research institutions around the world house valuable genetic information that could help unlock countless medical mysteries. However, because DNA degrades over time, it is difficult for researchers to analyze DNA samples older than 20 years […]
