Low-Fat Fried Food?
Deep-fried fish could get
healthier with a new
protein-based batter
extracted from the muscle of
discarded fish parts. When
coated onto the fish it
forms a barrier, locking in
taste and moisture while

Detecting Alzheimer's Early
Building upon a recent
discovery that the same
Alzheimer's disease process
that goes on in the brain
also occurs in the eye,
researchers have developed a
pair of optical tests that

Virtual Human Body
Anatomists and biochemists
have created a detailed
virtual view of vital organs
in the human body, down to
the level of tissues and
cells. The software
recreates the visualization
from a combination of

Edible Antifreeze Saves Ice Cream
Chemists adding a tasteless
edible protein called
gelatin hydrolysate to ice
cream find that it keeps ice
crystals small, resulting in
a smoother, more pleasing
product. The protein

Biological Engineers Generate Natural Gas with Bacteria
A new kind of waste digester uses two different strains of bacteria in different tanks. This would normally take place in the same environment, but microbiologists have now separated it into two ... > more -
Biomedical Engineers Combat Congestive Heart Failure With Aquapheresis
Biomedical engineers designed a machine that removes the excess sodium and water from blood. If not removed, those items can compromise breathing and heart function. An intravenous catheter withdraws ... > more -
Electrical Engineers And Medical Technologists Create Easier Way To Diagnose Diabetes
Endocrinologists, engineers, and microbiologists worked together to create a new testing method for diabetes. It projects light into the skin in order to measure the presence of advanced glycation ... > more -
Civil Engineers Develop Inexpensive System to Assess Damage after Natural Disasters
A new wireless system assesses injury in a structure after it is hit by a natural disaster such as a hurricane. When a building shakes, sensors records the frequency of the movement. This data is ... > more -
Entomologists Train Insects to Act Like Sniffing Dogs
If rewarded with sugary water, wasps can be trained in minutes to follow specific smells. The olfactory sensors in their antennae can sense chemicals in the air in concentrations as tiny as a few ... > more -
Civil Engineers Track Roaming Cell Phones to Monitor Traffic
Real-time cell phone use data can now be turned into better travel information. The new system, being tested in some states, follows the movement of cell phone signals from one cell tower to another. ... > more -
Meteorologists Use Weather Knowledge to Predict Path of Toxic Spills
Homeland security officials are tapping researchers' capability to predict the paths of toxic waste spills and hazardous airborne particles. Using computer science and mathematics, along with ... > more -
