Using optogenetics, researchers have detected a new acid sensor in plant cells that is addressing a cell-internal calcium store. When plants are infected by pathogens, suffer from a lack of water or ...

Dynamic combinatorial chemistry exploits reversible covalent bonds to generate adaptive libraries of compounds, allowing chemical systems to re‐equilibrate in response to external stimuli. In recent ...

Wearable biosensors are revolutionizing point-of-care diagnostics by offering real-time monitoring of physiological metrics and biomarkers. A team of researchers at Purdue University’s College of ...

Sucrose monolaurate, when added as a stabilizer to the electrode, formed protective hexagonal and laminar nanostructures around lactate oxidase, shielding it from sweat and maintaining enzyme activity ...

If plants are flooded, they lack oxygen and their cells over-acidify. A sensor protein detects this and triggers a stress response. Climate change is causing increased flooding and prolonged ...
