New computer model can predict how fast enzymes work

Drug molecules and biofuels can be made to order by living cell factories, where biological enzymes do the job. Now researchers at Chalmers University of Technology have developed a computer model that can predict how fast enzymes work, making it possible to find the most efficient living factories, as well as to study difficult diseases.

What is the optimal alcohol consumption level to minimize health loss?

Researchers performed a population-scale analysis of alcohol consumption by amount, age, gender, region, and year to estimate the theoretical minimum risk exposure level (TMREL) and the non-drinker equivalence (NDE).

New material for surgical dressings can be heated to kill melanoma cells but not other cells around it

Scientists from the University of Nottingham have combined graphene oxide, elastin, and ethanol to develop a new method to make this material conductive so it can be heated to kill melanoma cells but not other cells around it.

New method helps determine alcohol consumption in fatty liver disease

It is important to know whether patients have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or alcohol-related liver disease (ALD), as this distinction plays a key role in treatment and prognosis but cannot be reliably determined by established diagnostic means.
