In biology, seeing can lead to understanding, and researchers in Professor Edward Boyden's lab at the McGovern Institute for ...

During the first 72 hours in particular, extracellular vesicles—nanoparticles enclosed in cell membranes—play a significant role in the embryonic development of zebrafish.

Her cervix was closed and thick. Membranes were intact. At 5 PM she returned with every 4- to 5-minute contractions, complaining of extreme back pain. Her cervix was unchanged from the first exam.

When you drink a nice refreshing glass of water, do you ever think, "Gee, I'm glad that polymeric desalination membrane did ...

Someday, your drinking water could be completely free of toxic "forever chemicals." These chemicals, called PFAS (per- and ...

Recent advancements in polyamide membranes enhance desalination, achieving faster water flow and improved salt rejection for ...

Scientists at the University of Stuttgart have succeeded in controlling the structure and function of biological membranes with the help of 'DNA origami'. It will help in facilitating the ...

New anti–vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapies are improving retinal disease management by providing patients ...

The joint development agreement will accelerate the production of Pure Lithium’s patent pending lithium selective, water-blocking membranes for lithium metal anode production from brine.

This important study characterizes the mechanics and stability of bolalipids from archaeal membranes using molecular dynamics simulations. A mesoscale model of bolalipids is presented and evaluated ...

Dialysis membranes must balance two critical functions: allowing small molecules to pass through for removal while preventing the leakage of vital proteins. The team’s approach uses the unique ...
