Researchers at Virginia Tech have found a way to make biodegradable packaging stronger while using less energy in the process ...

Researchers have uncovered the 3D structure of RBP3, a key protein in vision, revealing how it transports retinoids and fatty ...

RECENTLY I have examined several samples of cast plasticized secondary cellulose acetate sheet material under the microscope. With crossed nicols a uniform yellow polarization colour was shown ...

The production and application of bacterial cellulose (BC) from nonpathogenic microorganisms ... the increased surface-to-volume ratio and simplified tridimensional structure significantly enhanced ...

Many of these foods are also sources of added sugar, making them even less ideal for managing blood glucose. But that doesn't mean you ... Simple carbs have a basic chemical structure and are easy for ...

Researchers are developing the biomaterial as a more environmentally friendly alternative to concrete, but any wide-scale use ...

Over the past several years, researchers have found that blood glucose levels can be gleaned using Raman spectroscopy aimed at the skin. Unfortunately, most such attempts have been hampered by ...

In plants, the space between cells is a key battleground during infection. To avoid recognition in this space, a strain of the bacterial tomato disease Pseudomonas syringae manipulates plants by ...

Texas Tech University researchers used liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry to quantify glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) in mammalian brain cells.

Scientists have discovered how chemokines and G protein-coupled receptors selectively bind each other to control how cells move.

Cellulose, the most abundant biopolymer, is utilized to make a wide range of products like clothes and paper. Also, it helps ...
