  • Nobel Prize-Winning ‘Turtle Technique’ Brings Hope for Parkinson’s Disease

    The quest to improve treatment for Parkinson’s disease has taken a significant leap forward, thanks to a breakthrough in molecular chemistry known as “chiral synthesis.” This advanced technique, explained in a compelling video by Reactions host George Zaidan, demonstrates the revolutionary process of creating L-DOPA, the most effective drug for Parkinson’s, without producing its harmful…

  • Innovative Technology Revolutionizes Microplastic Detection

    In a significant breakthrough, researchers from Waseda University and the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) have developed an innovative method using spectroscopy to measure the concentration of nano and microplastics (N/MPs) in soil. This new technique promises to simplify the detection process, eliminating the need for complex soil separation and offering…
