A suite of recent studies in American Chemical Society journals describes two‑year‑old brain organoids with measurable activity, a wearable electrospinning glove for on‑site wound patches, an edible coating from the Brazilian “wolf apple” that kept baby carrots fresh for up to 15 days at room temperature, and microplastics detected in post‑mortem human retinas.
Researchers at the University of South Florida have identified the mechanism that makes carbon black particles strengthen rubber, resolving a scientific puzzle that has lasted nearly a century. Their computer simulations reveal how the material resists stretching by effectively fighting against itself.
