Nanoparticle therapy promotes wound healing An experimental therapy successfully tested in mice cut in half the time it takes to heal wounds compared to no treatment at all. "We envision that our nanoparticle therapy could be used to speed the healing of all sorts of wounds, Continue Reading
Preserving milk using energy efficient pulsed electric field processing High voltage, short pulsed electric fields selectively damage cell membrane directly killing the contaminating bacteria by a process known as electroporation. Continue Reading
Laparoscopic hysterectomy may be safer than abdominal procedure A study has compared the relative risks of laparoscopic hysterectomy (with morcellation) with abdominal surgery for hysterectomy in premenopausal women for presumed uterine fibroids.

The study might explain why the insects are more likely to bite humans or animals infected with the organism. Continue Reading
Soils retain radioactivity in Fukushima The soil's physical and chemical properties in rice fields around the Fukushima site have been the focus of recent study. Researchers examined factors affecting soil-to-plant transfer of radioactive cesium in the Fukushima area. Continue Reading
