Physicists unravel the process of magnetic flux pumping to advance the development of fusion energy
There may be a solution to the occasional sawtooth swings that occasionally disrupt the power output of current thermonuclear fusion reactors. In an article in News Wise, researchers were able to create detailed simulations of magnetic flux pumping, a process that can maintain the stability of plasma despite disruptive external effects. A sawtooth swing is […]

Ginseng and red sage reduce arterial stiffening caused by exercise
Taiwanese researchers tested the ability of two Chinese medicinal herbs to delay the onset of vascular stiffening in muscles after excessive exercise. They reported that a week-long treatment using ginseng (Panax ginseng) and red sage (Salvia miltiorrhiza) were able to improve the symptoms of arterial stiffening. This study was conducted by the National Taiwan University. […]

Application of straw mulch increases potato yield
American researchers reported that adding straw mulch to the soil around emerging potatoes increases the size of the individual tubers and the yield of the crop for two different cultivars. They further added that the straw mulch managed broadleaf weeds better than mechanical means of removing the weeds. The study was supported by the University […]

The therapeutic potential of cherry mahogany in treating methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
Côte d’Ivoire researchers tested cherry mahogany (Tieghemella heckelii) for its antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). They reported that extracts from the stem bark of the African medicinal plant were able to inhibit the growth of different strains of the drug-resistant pathogenic microbe. The study was supported by the Institut Pasteur Côte d’Ivoire. Its findings were published in […]

Neuroscientists study neuroplasticity in tadpoles to learn how autism develops
Pollywogs are providing insight related to the development of autism in human children. In a Science Daily article, researchers reported that their study of neuroplasticity in tadpoles has uncovered the potential role played by certain proteins in how some autistic people process the feedback from their senses. Neuroplasticity is the life-long process where the brain […]

Scientists find a way to increase soybean yield through biological fixation, could remove the need for nitrogen fertilizers
Nitrogen fertilizers are a double-edged sword for soybean farmers. While they’re vital for large crops, they’re also expensive and potential pollutants. Thankfully, Brazilian researchers found a different way to boost yields by increasing the number of nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the plant’s roots, according to a ScienceDaily report. Nitrogen is essential to the production of protein. Soybeans […]

The “silk worm” enzyme works better at treating pain than steroids
The next time you are suffering from pain and swelling after getting your wisdom tooth extracted, try taking serrapeptase. In a new analysis of existing clinical trials, this silkworm-derived enzyme reportedly achieved better results than corticosteroids in terms of relieving pain and swelling, an article in GreenMedInfo stated. Serrapeptase is a natural enzyme produced by symbiotic bacteria inside […]

Our sense of smell may be linked to our risk of neurological disorders
Researchers from West Virginia have come across a connection between the sense of smell and the chances of developing brain disorders. In their recently published study, they found that movement of the wings of moths affected the animals’ olfactory sense, which in turn affected their brains, an article in News Wise stated. This discovery could […]

Fungal strains found naturally in the soil, including a relative of penicillin, could be an alternative to herbicides
Penicillium molds have been used to ripen cheese and produce the life-saving antibiotic penicillin. Now, a member of the large and common genus of fungi could serve as a natural alternative to synthetic herbicides. The discovery was made by Nigerian researchers from the University of Ilorin, who were looking for local microbes that could reduce the need for chemical weed-killers that polluted the environment […]

Adding cattle to wetland management practices benefits migratory bird populations, environment
In a bid to protect the dwindling wetlands of southeastern Nebraska from the encroachment of aggressive reed canarygrass and preserve them from conversion into farmland, researchers suggest using the lush region of the Rainwater Basin as grazing or haying grounds for domesticated cattle, reported a Newswise article. This way, an aggressive invasive species gets reduced, the cattle receive plenty of natural […]
