Researchers examine the potential of photocatalysts to split water
The key to efficient solar-to-chemical energy conversion lies in enabling uniform dispersion and intimate contact of co-catalysts, explain researchers from Shinshu University in Japan. In their report, which was published in Nature Communications, they explained how a single-crystalline barium tantalum oxynitride (BaTaO2N) photocatalyst effectively improved the performance of photoexcited electrons. Photocatalysts a cost-effective solution to splitting water Recent research is exploring […]

Researchers take a closer look at how monster galaxies like XMM-259 form and “die”
A team of researchers led by astronomers from the University of California, Riverside discovered an unusual monster galaxy that existed roughly 12 billion years ago, when the universe was 1.8 billion years old. In their report, which was published in The Astrophysical Journal, the scientists noted that galaxy XMM-2599 was still rapidly developing stars, even before dying. “Even […]

Study: Recovering from a coronavirus infection gives you lifelong antibody protection… but authorities refuse to recognize natural immunity
People who recover from mild cases of COVID-19 develop antibodies that may protect them from the Wuhan coronavirus, say researchers at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis (WUSTL). In their report, which was published in Nature, the team noted that these immune cells can persist for a lifetime as they continue to produce antibodies. This […]

Can the common cold help fight SARS-CoV-2?
SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is markedly different from those responsible for the common cold. But a new study suggests that previous exposure to common cold coronaviruses may actually help train the immune system to recognize the novel coronavirus. The study, published in the journal Science, found that immune cells that recognize the coronaviruses responsible for the […]

Coronavirus found to have the ability to infect brain cells, says research
SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, continues to baffle even the most knowledgeable infectious disease experts. To add to the confusion, researchers from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine now suggest that the virus can potentially be neurotrophic. In their recent report, which was published in the journal Altex, the team detailed how the Wuhan coronavirus can infect the human brain and […]

People with mild symptoms can develop immunity against coronavirus, says research
French researchers have found that even mild cases of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) can produce antibodies in almost all patients. In addition, they reveal that the patient’s defenses against the virus increase as he starts recovery. The report, which is posted on the medRxiv server, adds evidence that people who have recovered from COVID-19 could […]

Coronavirus hijacks immune cells to create cytokine storms, says new study
Scientists continue to be baffled by the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), especially how it “hijacks” certain cells of the body. A new study from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai suggests that SARS-CoV-2 – the coronavirus strain behind the current pandemic – can inhibit one virus-fighting set of genes but allow another set to launch – a […]

Scientists developing a new mask that traps and kills coronavirus on contact
Scientists from the University of Kentucky have received a grant from the National Science Foundation to develop a medical face mask that would capture and deactivate the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) on contact. The research team, led by engineering professor Dibakar Bhattacharyya, will be working with the university’s Center of Membrane Sciences and with other collaborators to make these […]

Want to make stinky farts smell like chocolate or flowers? This French company might have the answer
Beyond death and taxes, life still has many certainties. Take farting, for example. While it’s an act many wouldn’t be caught dead doing, it’s actually a normal part of digestion: A person, on average, farts anywhere from five to 15 times a day. Still, if you’re looking to avoid smelling like rotten eggs or sewage […]

Wow, that’s tart: Research shows astringency or dryness in red wine is linked to tannins and interactions with saliva
Nothing says “sophistication” better than a glass of red wine. In fact, people who know their wine can easily tell you which foods go well with dry wines like Cabernet Sauvignon, and which ones are perfect for fruity reds like Pinot Noir. But what makes a wine “dry”? A recent study found that the perception of dryness is influenced by […]
