Plants are increasingly encountering abiotic stressors, such as salinity, drought, heavy metals, microplastics, and various environmental contaminants, that ...

Published, peer-reviewed research shows a patent-pending, virus-mimicking platform technology developed at Purdue University ...

Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, roughly one-fifth the width of a human ...

Scientists suggest increasing what is understood about exocytosis could one day inform many fields of applied science.

Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.

Lysosomes are the recycling centers of human cells. Larger molecules are broken down inside the membrane-enclosed vesicles. Malfunctions can lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's.

Ushikuvirus is a newly identified giant virus that infects amoebas, adding to a growing group of oversized viruses that scientists believe may have played an important role in the emergence of complex ...

Scientists have long known that cellular membranes vary in thickness, but measuring those differences inside actual cells has ...

Kanazawa University, in collaboration with Osaka University and the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology, ...

The Clinical Center of I. M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University (Sechenov University) has begun performing eardrum repair procedures using tissue equivalents created from patients’ own ...

Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical ...

Abstract: The cold start issue in low temperature environments significantly impacts the durability of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). As a powerful tool, electrochemical impedance ...
