A coronavirus envelope all-atom computer model is being developed. The coronavirus model builds on success of all-atom infuenza virus simulations. Molecular dynamics simulations for the coronavirus model tests ran on up ...

DIN rail=mount DDA dc-dc converters use step-down non-isolated power modules that operate from an input range of 9 up to 53 Vdc, with a wide adjustable output voltage range of 3.3 up to 24 V. The DDA is suited for genera...

There are 20,000 FDA approved drugs. One of them might fight COVID-19, if scientists can find it.

We asked engineers how they were getting work done while observing the mandate for social distancing. Here’s what they said. Engineers working at home and looking at the walls of their house all day may wonder how othe...

A cheap, biocompatible white powder that luminesces when heated could be used for non-invasively monitoring the temperature of specific organs within the body. Scientists have now conducted preliminary tests to demonstra...

Scientists have developed a solid material capable of slowly releasing hydrogen sulfide and nitric oxide when exposed to air. These gases can induce physiologically favorable effects at low concentrations (e.g., reducing...

In the production of compounds, chemists have the goal of finding strategies that are most selective and avoid waste products. This helps to drive industrial innovation and drug development. In this context, a team of re...

The first study looking at the effect of chlorhexidine mouthwash on the entire oral microbiome has found its use significantly increases the abundance of lactate-producing bacteria that lower saliva pH, and may increase ...

A new modelling study conducted in a simulated Singapore setting has estimated that a combined approach of physical distancing interventions, comprising quarantine (for infected individuals and their families), school cl...

Bacteria are increasingly becoming resistant to antibiotics. By combining antibiotics with the cannabis compound, cannabidiol, researchers have found a way to enhance the antibiotic effect.

An international team of scientists found that, like humans, female wild animals tend to live longer than males.

We humans are far from the first to exploit the benefits of CRISPR. Groundbreaking research has helped to redefine what CRISPR is. Researchers have discovered that primitive bacterial parasites weaponize CRISPR to engage...

Researchers found that individuals going to bed even 30 minutes later than their usual bedtime presented a significantly higher resting heart rate that lasted into the following day.

ATEK Access Technologies announced the launch of its new Datakey CryptoAuthentication memory token line which gives embedded systems designers a rugged and secure portable memory device for authentication applications. T...

ABB is expanding its CLP open-frame power supply product family to support a higher range of output voltages. The new additions to the product line increase its output voltage options to up to 54 volts DC and its output ...

Pickering Electronics Ltd’s new Series 131 single-in-line (SIL) reed relays deliver a minimum stand-off of 1500V, switching up to 1000V, on a footprint of just 12.5mm x 3.7mm and a height of 6.6mm. They are designed fo...

From the age of 50, there is a decline not just in physical activity but also in cognitive abilities since the two are correlated. But which of them influences the other? Researchers used a database of over 100,000 peopl...

Scientists have revealed an important mechanism in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks, according to new research.

Nearly three in ten New York City residents (29%) report that either they or someone in their household has lost their job as a result of coronavirus over the last two weeks. In addition, 80% of NYC residents said they e...

Many of us are spending a lot of time looking at our hands lately and we think we know them pretty well. But research shows the way our brains perceive our hands is inaccurate.

Synopsys, Inc. announced the availability of the industry’s first verification IP (VIP) and Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) source code test suite for Ethernet 800G. As the requirements for increased bandwidth...

5G's antennas and the devices that drive them generate more heat than their LTE predecessors. That creates now cooling problems for wireless devices and systems. If you listen to and read all the hype surrounding 5G, you...
