Livestock breeders could soon have more tools to improve the health and quality of their animals, thanks to a recent study ...

Tissue optical clearing is a fundamental technique that enhances light penetration deep into biological samples by reducing light scattering through refractive index homogenization. This process ...

Animals display an extraordinary array of structural adaptations that are intimately linked to their functional capacities. From the microscopic organisation of tissues and cells to the macroscopic ...

(Nanowerk News) Tissue engineering seeks to repair damaged tissues by providing cellular scaffolds that support regeneration. Ideally, these scaffolds should be biocompatible, biodegradable materials ...

Using what is otherwise considered biomedical waste to potentially reduce live animal testing? That sounds like a win-win proposition. The Albuquerque City Council recently unanimously approved ...

After a major cardiac event, the heart can’t repair itself, leaving permanent damage that increases the risk of future troubles. Now, scientists at Texas Heart Institute believe they may have found a ...

There was a lack of effective, cell-free biomaterials for bladder tissue regeneration that could reliably restore function without the complexities and risks of cell-seeded scaffolds. The breakthrough ...

Samantha Garrard receives funding from NERC. Plastic debris poses a particularly significant problem. Marine mammals mistakenly eat items such as plastic bags, food wrappers, ropes and abandoned ...

In the laboratories of 3D Biotechnology Solutions (3DBS), a startup incubated at the Mandic Hub in Campinas, São Paulo state, Brazil, solutions are being developed for the biofabrication of human and ...
