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 ...

The acid in your stomach can break down foods, but it could also be used to power electronics. A team of researchers from MIT and Brigham and Women's Hospital have developed a tiny generator that can ...

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 ...

Researchers in Purdue University’s College of Engineering have created new noninvasive, wearable sensors that monitor levels of uric acid in human sweat. A paper about the research has been published ...

When plants are infected by pathogens, suffer from a lack of water or have to react to other external stimuli, the first thing they do is increase the proton and calcium concentration in the affected ...
