Painful truths about genital injuries Posted: 10 Nov 2012 12:58 PM PST A comprehensive survey of genital injuries over the last decade involving mishaps with consumer products like clothing, furniture, tools and toys that brought U.S. adults to emergency rooms reveals that such injuries are common and may be preventable, according to doctors. |
Uranium exposure linked to high lupus rates in community living near a former refinery Posted: 10 Nov 2012 12:58 PM PST High rates of systemic lupus erythematosus have been linked to living in proximity to a former uranium ore processing facility in Ohio, according to new research findings. |
Compound in grapes, red wine could be key to fighting prostate cancer Posted: 10 Nov 2012 06:35 AM PST New research has revealed that the compound can make prostate tumor cells more susceptible to radiation treatment, increasing the chances of a full recovery from all types of prostate cancer, including aggressive tumors. |
Posted: 10 Nov 2012 06:35 AM PST A team of scientists announced that they have discovered AEG within cyanobacteria, which are believed to be some of the most primitive organisms on Earth. AEG is a small molecule that when linked into chains forms a hypothetical backbone for peptide nucleic acids, which have been theorized as the first genetic molecules. |
Mysteries of the neutrino: Physicists investigate the Big Bang particle Posted: 09 Nov 2012 08:13 AM PST Physicists at some of the world's leading research institutes are attempting to unravel the mysteries of a particle that played a role in the creation of the universe. The existence of neutrinos and anti-neutrinos -- particles that are almost massless and which travel at light speed from one side of Earth to the other -- was confirmed more than 50 years ago. Scientists believe that they were created at the Big Bang and might hold the key to the nature of the universe. But they are light particles that react weakly with matter and they change properties as they travel. This process -- named neutrino oscillation -- makes the particles highly elusive. |
Super storm tracked by European Space Agency water mission Posted: 09 Nov 2012 05:41 AM PST When millions of people are bracing themselves for the onslaught of extreme weather, as much information as possible is needed to predict the strength of the impending storm. The European Space Agency's SMOS mission again showed its versatility by capturing unique measurements of Hurricane Sandy. As its name suggests, the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite was designed to measure how much moisture is held in soil and how much salt is held in the surface waters of the oceans. |
