Researchers from the University of Cambridge have created a new DNA sequencing method called Chem-map, which can detect where and how small molecule drugs interact with the targeted genome. The method enables researchers to conduct in situ mapping of small molecule-genome interactions with unprecedented precision. Chem-map was used in the study to determine the direct […]

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe captured the first visible light images of Venus from space. The images, taken during two recent flybys, show a faint glow from the surface, revealing features like continents, plains, and plateaus. The images could help scientists learn about Venus’s geology and mineral make-up and understand why it became inhospitable while Earth […]

Researchers from Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology and Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology have identified how bacteria can adapt to toxic metals released from hydrothermal vents. The study focused on Nitratiruptor sp. SB155-2, a species of bacteria isolated from vents in the Okinawa Trough. The researchers found that bacteria use transporter proteins […]

Dentists, as well as periodontists, use several handheld oral surgical instruments. One such commonly used instrument includes dental chisels. This instrument has a unique design for splitting the tooth when it has any fracture. Likewise, the instrument consists of a beveled cutting edge on either side to assist the dentist while doing a complicated surgery. […]
