Researchers from Linkping University have developed a perovskite family of materials that have an optoelectronic magnetic double perovskite. This new finding helps develop couple spintronics using optoelectronics in order to obtainquick and energy-saving information storage. The new family of perovskites has a few interesting properties such as cost-effectiveness in terms of production, advanced light-emitting properties, and customization as per applications. Until now, the researchers have b
An investigational vaccine against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) has been developed by a team from The University of Texas (UTAUS), Austin, as it is one of the infectious diseases that have increased the mortality rate among the infants. According to the researchers, the vaccine helped generate RSV-counteracting antibodies in large counts for several months. RSV can be contracted throughout the life but it is fatal in very old and young people. The virus is known to cause bronchiolitis, pn
The Mayo Clinic has been able to confirm that about 15% of couples are infertile, and male infertility is observed in one-third of these cases. The major cause is the problem in sperm development. Recently, a team has reported in ACS Nano that there is a new way to deliver a protein vital for sperm cell production directly intothe testicles, in which it reestablished normal sperm development and permitted previously infertile subject to father. The male fertility is primarily due to the low sp
Researchers from the Duke University havecreated anin vitrolive lung model that is an exact copy of the lung air sacs where coronavirus infection and other severe lung harm take place. This advance study has allowedthe researchers to see through the conflict between the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus and lung cells at the optimum molecular scale. The virus completely destroys the delicate, ball-like air sacs called alveoli and causes pneumonia and acute respiratory distress which ultimately leads to d
One of the most common respiratory conditionsCOPD is considered to be one of the top causes of hospital admissions each year, especially during winters. Currently, the cases of COPD are found to be increasing as the access to face-to-face consultations with the gynecologists has reduced. The elderly patients are majorly in trouble. Therefore, the new findings are always a boon for the future of digital health services. The MyCOPD app is anticipated to help predict the symptoms quite early, the
Researchers from the Rice University created a means to lower alkenes, simply synthesis using molecules, and develop intermediates for drugs other compounds through a dual-catalyst technique termed as cooperative hydrogen atom transfer (cHAT). The new method stimulated the hydrogenation of alkenes, carbon-carbon double bond comprised hydrocarbons, in a sustainable and simpler way. The study published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society clearly explains contribution of catalyst in
The hair dyeing has always been considered to be a risk when used at home or salons. These products are risky due to increasing case of allergies or other skin irritation. Around 1% of the public are found to be allergic to dye.Additionally, the increasing use of dyes is found to cause cancer. However, it has been found that an alternative is much needed for list of salons and hair color lovers in need for natural alternatives to cosmetics and dyes. Recently a team from Northwestern University
The highly exposed human body organ, skin, is at the highest potential of being damaged during fates such as crashes and related unfortunate incidents. Some accidents might lead to deep cuts in the soft skin tissue and to recover those wounds, doctors and surgeons use sutures and staples in clinical practices. Meanwhile, some scientists at Arizona State University have designed asubstitutefor skin-holding staples. Researchers have informed that the new technique could be used solely or in comb
Scientists at MIT and the University of Waterloo have created anextremely powerful portable type of a device named a quantum cascade laser. This device is known to produce terahertz radiation in the in vitro conditions. The laser could widely be used in applications includingidentifying skin cancer and hidden explosives. The terahertz radiations generally was used to executereal-time imaging and quick spectral studythat require temperatures below 200K or lower. These temperatures could be obta
The key purpose behind designing Human artificial chromosomes (HACs) is to incorporate new genes in a human cell. In short, HACs are being used as genetic vectors. With the recombinant DNA technology and gene transformation process, researchers have been able to cure several genetic disorders. Even though this concept was introduced almost 20 Years back, still, its use is limited owing to an inefficient artificial centromere.A team of scientists, led by Ben Black from the University of Pennsyl
