Dear James: We have problems with insect damage in our area. When doing a major remodeling project, should we treat all the lumber with spray-on borate chemicals for protection? Borate chemicals ...

Dear Jamie: Stopping insects before they enter your house is always better than trying to treat an infestation once it is established. Insects can cause direct structural damage or increase the wood’s ...

The transition from simple chemistry to the complex biology of molecules that gave rise to life is a puzzle that scientists have been trying to solve for ages. Subscribe to our newsletter for the ...

The work is led by researchers from the ICMAB-CSIC, who have collaborated with the ALBA Synchrotron (MIRAS beamline) as well as with other international laboratories and universities. A battery is ...

Recently, with the help of a steady-state strong magnetic field experimental device, scientists constructed nano-scale borate bioactive glass (Nano-HCA@BG), which can effectively reduce the biological ...

Borate compounds have long attracted attention for their diverse structural motifs and wide-ranging applications in materials science, catalysis and photonics. The unique chemistry of boron centres, ...

Wound healing is a complex and dynamic biological process that requires different types of cells to complete the critical steps at the appropriate timepromptly 1. When blood vessels are damaged, they ...

Performing the entire analysis from a single dissolution has emerged as a necessity with the advent of the modern analytical techniques. XRF Scientific has designed multiple models of fusion machines ...

The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

The transition from simple chemistry to the complex biology of molecules that gave rise to life is a puzzle that scientists have been trying to solve for ages. A new study suggests that conditions on ...
