| No link found between facial shape and aggression Posted: 25 Jan 2013 07:41 AM PST There is not significant evidence to support the association between facial shape and aggression in men, according to a new study. |
| Magnetic levitation tissues could speed toxicity tests Posted: 24 Jan 2013 03:36 PM PST In a development that could lead to faster and more effective toxicity tests for airborne chemicals, scientists have used magnetic levitation to grow some of the most realistic lung tissue ever produced in a laboratory. |
| Ovarian tumor, with teeth and a bone fragment inside, found in a Roman-age skeleton Posted: 24 Jan 2013 06:14 AM PST A team of researchers has found the first ancient remains of a calcified ovarian teratoma, in the pelvis of the skeleton of a woman from the Roman era. The find confirms the presence in antiquity of this type of tumor -- formed by the remains of tissues or organs, which are difficult to locate during the examination of ancient remains. Inside the small round mass, four teeth and a small piece of bone were found. |
| Drinking water unexpectedly rich in microbial life Posted: 24 Jan 2013 06:14 AM PST Flow cytometry can now be officially used for the quantification of microbial cells in drinking water. The new analytical method provides much more realistic results than the conventional method, in which bacterial colonies are grown on agar plates. The results demonstrate that even good-quality drinking water harbors 100 to 10,000 times more living cells than the conventional plate count method would suggest. |
| Learn to be more understanding by watching The Bachelor (this season, anyway) Posted: 23 Jan 2013 10:38 AM PST A new study finds evidence suggesting that the brain works hard to understand those who have different bodies when watching them in action. |
