Seeking an approach to address the increasing levels of methane and chlorinated hydrocarbons that threaten the environment, the authors worked to develop a novel, low-cost biotrickling filter for use as an ex situ method tailored to marine environments. By using methanotrophic bacteria in the filter, they observed methane degradation, suggesting the feasibility of chlorinated hydrocarbon degradation.

In this study, the authors address the current climate concern of high CO₂ levels by testing solid forms of hydroxide for CO₂ reduction and designing a drone to fly it in ambient air!

In order for cells to successfully multiply, a number of proteins are needed to correctly coordinate the replication and division process. In this study, students use fluorescence microscopy and molecular methods to study CCDC11, a protein critical in the formation of cilia. Interestingly, they uncover a new role for CCDC11, critical in the cell division across multiple human cell lines.

The authors looked at how acetaminophen may cause liver damage by looking at both serum level markers of liver damage as well as liver pathology.

This paper discusses how the conditions at the center of stars affects the nuclear reactions that happen inside these stars. We focused on the effect of temperature and density and found that these two properties interacted to create a greater effect when combined than when separate.

Heavy metal contamination from transportation can damage soil and vegetation by increasing oxidative stress, disrupting enzymes, and impairing photosynthesis. This study investigated whether chondroitin sulfate (CS) could reduce the harmful effects of contaminated roadside soil on plant growth by binding with metal ions.

This article investigates whether induction heating can speed up static recrystallization in AISI 4130 steel compared with traditional radiant heating. It was found that induction-heated samples recrystallized faster, softened more quickly, and showed earlier microstructural changes like grain nucleation and pearlite spheroidization, suggesting induction heating could be a more efficient alternative for industrial metal heat treatments.

This study analyzes genetic alterations and expression patterns of protein kinases involved in phagocytosis across multiple cancers using TCGA data.

The authors used a particle-in-cell simulation to determine the effects on extensive and intensive metrics. They found that preliminary simulations could be run quickly with much lower particle counts before more technically demanding and comprehensive simulations are performed.

The authors looked at the ability subjects to rotation a 4D cube and how the ability to practice cube rotation impact their ability to understand 4D space.
