Are the world’s protected lands really being protected? A study concludes “no”
A new study warned that humans are quickly encroaching upon one-third of the protected lands in the world. Road-building, grazing, and urbanization are just some of the human expansionary activities that are threatening to destroy biodiversity in an area twice as big as Alaska, an article in Scientific American states. This is a serious blow […]

Physicists are one step closer to developing single-atom data storage devices
Swiss researchers recently published the results of their experiments on magnetizing single atoms of holmium, an article on NanoWerk stated. They reported making significant progress towards the creation of single-atom data storage systems, which can store immense amounts of data in very tiny spaces using atoms. Every day, the space needed to store data increases by […]

New electronic paper is thin, flexible, and displays the full spectrum of colors like a standard LED
We may be seeing a new energy-efficient type of electronic paper in the near future. An article in Chalmers Chemistry and Chemical Engineering describes how Swedish researchers developed a prototype that possesses all of the vibrant colors of a LED display while requiring only 10 percent of the energy used by a tablet reader. According […]

Novel device reflects sound back to its source, rather than deflecting it at an angle
When a wave of light or sound or similar energy hits something, it is usually deflected at an angle off the surface of the object. Rarely does it bounce back right towards its point of origin. North Carolina-based engineers have come up with a device that can reflect sound waves back to their sources, an […]

Compounds found in green tea and red wine may be able to treat congenital metabolic diseases
Every cup of green tea and glass of red wine you imbibe protects your body from toxic substances. Some of those harmful metabolites trigger inborn congenital metabolic diseases. An Israeli study suggests that green tea and red wine contain natural compounds that might be able to treat these particular disorders by blocking metabolite formation, a recent […]

Resveratrol improves the efficacy of paclitaxel in treating liver cancer
A Chinese in vitro study tested the efficacy of the natural cancer inhibitor paclitaxel when taken alongside the plant-based polyphenol resveratrol. The study concluded that resveratrol improved the anticancer effects of paclitaxel on human liver cancer cells, allowing reduced amounts of the cancer-fighting substance to be used in treatments. The study was supported by the […]

Improving blood parameters and cholesterol levels with omega-3 supplementation
An animal study conducted by Saudi researchers analyzed the risk of cardiac disease in rats supplemented with omega-3 fatty acid in the form of fish oil. It concluded that omega-3 supplements could reduce the amounts of total cholesterol and proteins in the blood of the animals, thereby improving their cardiac health. The study was supported […]

A feasibility study on converting food waste into viable livestock feed
American researchers examined the viability of recovering food waste and turning it into livestock feed. They reported that a modernized version of the ancient practice would be able to greatly reduce the wastage of food, provide sufficient nutrition for food animals, and improve the food supply at global and national levels. The University of Pennsylvania […]

Investigating the optimum soil and water characteristics to achieve the highest yield potential of “Spunta” potatoes
Saudi researchers sought to determine the texture and characteristics of soil that can improve the productivity of potato crops. They compiled a soil and water quality index (SWQI) that established the optimal soil and water characteristics for maximizing crop yield and quality. The research project was supported by the King Saud University. Its results came […]

MIT researchers create a new water-repellent coating that can be added to natural fabrics such as cotton and silk
Water-repellent coatings are useful when it comes to keeping things dry, but their fluorinated components are considered toxic to humans and the environment. So Massachusetts-based researchers came up with a new coating that is just as effective, much safer for human health, and can be added to natural fabrics, an article in Nanowerk stated. Massachusetts […]
