“#Nanosponges could intercept SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection” In lab experiments, both the lung cell and immune cell types of nanosponges caused the SARS-CoV-2 virus to lose nearly 90% of its “viral infectivity” in a dose-dependent manner. Viral infectivity is a measure of the ability of the virus to enter the host cell and exploit its resources…
“#New research creates neutralizing sponge for dangerous chemicals” Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain Dr. Simon Holder, Reader in Organic Chemistry at the University of Kent (UK) and Dr. Barry Blight, Associate Professor of Chemistry at the University of New Brunswick (Canada), have developed a new method for containing and deactivating neurotoxic chemicals like VX and sarin….
“#Study: Biodiversity in stagnant shallow lakes cramps growth of aquatic plants” Underwater light field characteristics (Kd, TSM, Red/Blue, Zeu/WD, SD) under the presence of different species richness. Credit: WBG The recovery and long-term maintenance of submerged macrophytes is the key to the restoration of the ecosystem in eutrophic lakes, because submerged macrophytes can promote the…
“#Planting non-native trees accelerates the release of carbon back into the atmosphere” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Large-scale reforestation projects such as New Zealand’s One Billion Trees programme are underway in many countries to help sequester carbon from the atmosphere. But there is ongoing debate about whether to prioritise native or non-native plants to fight climate…
“#20-year field experiment: Rotate corn for better soil health” Leveraging a 20-year field experiment, University of Illinois researchers found evidence that continuous corn crop rotations lead to poor soil health. Credit: Lauren D. Quinn, University of Illinois Soil microbes are living, working barometers of soil health. They are responsible for turning atmospheric nitrogen into forms…
“#How to manage water systems for long-term sustainability” Credit: Chinnapong, Shutterstock The concept of a circular economy (CE) promotes reparability, durability and recyclability, unlike the traditional linear economy that is based on the take-make-consume-dispose pattern involving the using up of resources. As such, CE can help lower the use of resources, decrease waste production and…
“#How the coronavirus pandemic is adding to the world’s slave labour workforce” Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain The economic disruption created by the Coronavirus pandemic could trap hundreds of thousands more workers around the world in modern slavery working conditions, researchers are warning. With businesses forced to act urgently by increased time and financial pressures while…
“#Mapping the genome could help in race to save native rat” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Scientists from The University of Western Australia have unveiled a genetic analysis of an endangered native rodent, which could help researchers and conservation authorities better understand how to protect the Australian species. DNA Zoo Australia Director Associate Professor Parwinder Kaur,…
“#Study finds that proactive home buyouts provide financial benefits, reduce flood damage, and protect homeowners” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Damages from flooding cost hundreds of millions of dollars annually. Compounded by a changing climate, by 2080 the frequency of these major events is expected to increase by 20 times. A case study of the record-breaking…
