Natural Plant Extract Removes up to 90% of Microplastics From Water

Researchers found that natural polymers derived from okra and fenugreek are highly effective at removing microplastics from water. The same sticky substances that make okra slimy and give fenugreek its gel-like texture could help clean our water in a big way. Scientists have discovered that these

Scientists uncover magnetic-field control of ultrafast spin dynamics in 2D ferromagnets

A research team led by Prof. Sheng Zhigao from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. A.V. Kimel from Radboud University, has demonstrated that strong magnetic fields can effectively regulate laser-induced ultrafast demagnetization in a two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) ferromagnet.

Multitissue single-cell analysis reveals differential cellular and molecular sensitivity between fructose and high-fat high-sucrose diets

Chen et al. compared scRNA-seq profiles of four tissues in metabolic syndrome (MetS) models induced by fructose or high-fat high-sucrose diets, revealing differential tissue, cellular, and molecular vulnerability between diets. Regulatory genes and pathways were identified, and networks were rewired in MetS. mt-Rnr2 was validated as a key regulator.

Scientists Detect Unusual Airborne Toxin in the United States for the First Time

University of Colorado Boulder researchers made the first-ever airborne detection of Medium Chain Chlorinated Paraffins (MCCPs) in the Western Hemisphere. Sometimes, scientific research feels a lot like solving a mystery. Scientists head into the field with a clear goal and a solid hypothesis, bu

Microsoft shares temp fix for Outlook crashes when opening emails

Microsoft has shared a workaround for a known issue that causes the classic Outlook email client to crash when opening or starting a new message.

These problems affect users in the Monthly Enterprise Channel who updated Outlook for Microsoft 365 earlier this month, starting with Version 2,504 (Build 18730.20122).

“When you open or start a new email, classic Outlook crashes. This issue occurs because Outlook cannot open the Forms Library,” the Outlook team says in a support document published on Friday.
