The mealworms are cool but the natural enzymes they produce are what’s really exciting!

Well I’ll be damned. 👍🏽
Scientists may have discovered an unlikely ally in the fight against plastic waste: the lesser mealworm. Native to Africa but now widespread across the planet, a beetle larvae from the Alphitobius genus can consume & degrade plastic.

A multifunctional “three-in-one” fluorescent theranostic system for hepatic ischemia–reperfusion injury
Hepatic ischemia–reperfusion injury (HIRI) is the main cause of postoperative liver dysfunction and liver failure. Traditional separation of HIRI diagnosis and therapy confers several disadvantages, i...
