Ammonia emissions from agriculture are a major environmental concern and remain one of the most difficult nitrogen-related challenges facing sustainable ...

Awareness and interest in improved Nutrient Use Efficiency (NUE) has never been greater. Driven by a growing public belief that crop nutrients are excessive in the environment and farmer concerns ...

A novel bioengineering technique known as Microbially Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP) is emerging as a promising and sustainable solution to tackle coastal erosion, signalling a shift from ...

Inspired by how a car uses an engine and a steering wheel to reach its destination, the nanorobot integrates two enzymatic functions. Urease works for propulsion by harnessing endogenous urea in ...

A new study involving the Medical University of Vienna shows how the multi-resistant fungus Candida auris utilizes carbon dioxide (CO₂) to survive on the skin and become resistant to antifungal ...

A team of researchers has developed a new biosensor that turns the invisible signals into visible color changes to detect urea levels in a simple way. The sensor works by combining gold nanoparticles ...

There is general agreement that H. pylori infection is closely associated with chronic gastritic conditions, including intestinal metaplasia, peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. Several methods for ...

Background and Aim: The current diagnostic methods for detecting Helicobacter pylori infection include rapid urease test (RUT), urea breath test (UBT), histology, culture, and serum antibody detection ...

There are a wide variety of plants known by the name “hyssop,” from hedge hyssop to capers to anise hyssop. However, true hyssop, Hyssopus officinalis, is an edible member of the mint family that’s ...
