Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a leading cause of cervical cancer worldwide, with HPV type 16 accounting for roughly half of cases. Although polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is considered the gold standard for HPV detection, its reliance on gel electrophoresis…
Urea is widely used as a nitrogen-source fertilizer in agriculture, but its leaching due to rainwater leads to eutrophication and environmental pollution. To address this, urea was incorporated into nanohydroxyapatite (nHA)–kaolin (KA) composites (HKs) that were synthesized via a two-step hydrothermal method as a slow-release materials…
Landslides are one of the most dangerous natural disasters, often causing damage to infrastructure, the environment, and even human lives. A new study introduces a promising way to predict and prevent such disasters by identifying hidden fractures in soil before…
Health checkups are essential to detect early changes in the human body, but traditional methods often require direct contact, which can increase the risk of disease transmission. Responding to this challenge, a group of researchers has successfully developed a contactless…
