Extracting the content of single living cells
2016-07-14 12:00:00| LifeSciencesWorld
[NEWS] ETH researchers have developed a method using a nanosyringe whose tiny needle is able to penetrate single living cells and extract their content. The technology can be used for cell cultures, for example, in order to investigate the interior of the cells. This allows scientists to identify the differences between individual cells at the molecular level, as well as to identify and analyse rare cell types. “Our method opens up new frontiers in biological research. It is the start o…

Advances in extracting uranium from seawater
2016-04-23 19:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: The oceans hold more than four billion tons of uranium--enough to meet global energy needs for the next 10,000 years if only we could capture the element from seawater to fuel nuclear power plants. Major advances in this area have been published by the American Chemical Society's (ACS) journal Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research. For half a century, researchers worldwide have tried to mine uranium from the oceans with limited success. In the 1990s, Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) scientists...

Oil company bosses' bonuses linked $1tn spending extracting fossil fuels
2015-05-25 23:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Bosses at the worlds big five oil companies have been showered with bonus payouts linked to a $1tn (650bn) crescendo of spending on fossil fuel exploration and extraction over nine years, according to Guardian analysis of company reports. The unprecedented push to bring untapped reserves into production, and to exploit new and undiscovered fields, involves some of the most complex feats of engineering ever attempted. It also reflects how confident ExxonMobil, Shell, Chevron, Total and BP are...
