Believe it or not, adding plastic waste to concrete makes it more resistant to radiation. (Malkapur et al.)By incorporating recycled waste plastic and other byproducts from the iron and steel industry, researchers have created a more sustainable version of concrete that shields nuclear radiation better than standard concrete.Enter code here  By incorporating recycled waste plastic and other byproducts from the iron and steel industry, researchers have created a more sustainable version of concrete that shields nuclear radiation better than standard concrete.Their study, published March...…Believe it or not, adding plastic waste to concrete makes it more resistant to radiation.

Single-use plastics of various types litter the deep ocean floor. (Jamstec)By doing video surveillance deep in the ocean, researchers working in the North Pacific have discovered the densest accumulation of plastic waste ever recorded on an abyssal seafloor, finding that the majority of this waste is single-use packaging.Enter code here  By doing video surveillance deep in the ocean, researchers working in the North Pacific have discovered the densest accumulation of plastic waste ever recorded on an abyssal seafloor, finding that the majority of this waste is single-use packaging.The...…Single-use plastics of various types litter the deep ocean floor.

A longtime dream of many diabetics tired of needles is one step closer. (Trabolsi Research Group)By using nanomaterial layers to package insulin, researchers have developed a stable and effective method for administering the hormone orally without subjecting it to destruction by stomach acids, solving a long-time problem in pharmaceutical science.Verification code  y using nanomaterial layers to package insulin, researchers have developed a stable and effective method for administering the hormone orally to rats without subjecting it to destruction by stomach acids, solving a...…A longtime dream of many diabetics tired of needles is one step closer.

Pesticides are killing far more than their intended targets. (Renja Bereswill)By analyzing 25 years of pesticide use data from the United States, researchers have found that the toxicity of pesticides to nontarget invertebrates, including pollinators, has increased markedly, even though the volume of pesticides used has gone down.Verification code  y analyzing 25 years of pesticide use data from the United States, researchers have found that the toxicity of pesticides to nontarget invertebrates, including pollinators, has increased markedly, even though the volume of pesticides used...…Pesticides are killing far more than their intended targets.
