When less than two nanometers of space is available, there is a traffic jam in the proton transport network.
Enzymes from microorganisms can produce valuable chemical substances. In a cascade, they can do that even if they need different environmental conditions.
Researchers consider the results of a multicentre study a milestone for patients suffering from hidradenitis suppurativa.
When people think back on their own wedding, they tend to turn it into something even more beautiful than it really was.
A few nanometers of thin quartz-like coatings can multiply the shelf life of food, enable brilliant OLED TV pictures or separate gases from each other. When it comes to recycling, they can simply be neglected.
Physical activity does the brain good. For example, it fosters its ability to change and adapt.
Fear of contagion is driving much more contactless payments during the pandemic. It wouldn’t be necessary.
Unlike conventional light-controllable proteins, the newly characterized optogenetic tool can be switched off, not switched on, by light. It could be suitable for investigating the basic principles of epilepsy.
Popular unlocking patterns are often in the shape of a letter – and are easy to guess. A bad thing if someone loses their mobile phone and it ends up in the wrong hands.
In order to tailor plasmas for medical applications, it is necessary to know their effective components in detail. A team from the Collaborative Research Centre 1316 is providing new insights.
For data protection reasons, the messaging app Signal is becoming ever more important. Unlike WhatsApp, the Signal app asks you to create a PIN during setup. But why?
This is how a nanosecond plasma forms and spreads in water via tunnel effects.
Agarics can form fruiting bodies even without a partner. This establishes a question that has been unresolved for decades: Is there sexual reproduction in agarics without mating?
While in the past it was mainly car accident victims, today it is older people who come to hospital with head injuries after falls.
Infrared spectroscopy can automatically distinguish between various types of lung cancer and genetic mutations, allowing quick and reliable statements to be made regarding prognosis and treatment decisions.
Plasmas usually have a destructive effect on enzymes. But in this instance, they supply them with a building block for biocatalysis at the push of a button.
An international research team has investigated mechanisms behind sensory abnormalities following nerve injuries.
Logging into an online shop without a password, using only the fingerprint? In this situation, it’s not surprising that users have the impression that their biometric data is transmitted to the website.
Alternative splicing can lead to the formation of numerous protein variants. For the first time, alternative splicing has now been systematically analysed for the family of glutamate receptors.
A research team has discovered a security gap in modern mobile phones that is very unlikely to have been created by accident. In fact, it should have been removed back in 2013.
