How can we live longer? The eternal question, and one that scientists have long been trying to answer.
Conventional wearable sweat sensors utilize hydrophobic ion-selective membranes (ISMs) and require tight contact and adhesives to achieve signal stability. However, this can lead to user discomfort and skin-related diseases, necessitating the development of non-contact alternatives. In a new study, inspired by the self-cleaning behavior of rose petals, researchers developed novel ISM-based sweat sensors that feature enhanced signal stability and performance, avoid skin contact, and are reusable, making them practical for daily use.
Kruti Naik, a Ph.D. candidate in ocular drug delivery at the Wits Advanced Drug Delivery Platform (WADDP) at Wits University, could change the way eye infections and conditions are treated.

An outbreak of Legionnaires' disease in New York City this August has sickened more than 100 people and left five dead. Nationwide, reported cases of this severe form of pneumonia have risen significantly over the last 25 years, with most occurring in summer and fall.
Next to cancer recurrence or progression, cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of death in cancer survivors. The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database revealed that among the more than three million who initially survived cancer between 1973 and 2012, 38% eventually succumbed to the disease, while 11.3% died from cardiovascular diseases.
Mosquitoes carrying West Nile virus have been detected in the city for the first time this year, officials said.
A new study has uncovered a key difference between the immune system of males and females—and it comes down to a single gene. The study is published in The Journal of Immunology.
Using a care pathway focused on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can lead to shorter hospital stays, increased referrals to pulmonary rehabilitation, and improved standardization of care, according to a study published in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases: Journal of the COPD Foundation.
Tailored exercise programs, vitamin D supplements, and better nutrition are proven to help prevent falls in aged care homes, reveals a new study from Flinders University.
The genetic disorder Fragile X syndrome occurs when individuals don't make the Fragile X protein known as FMRP. Essential for normal brain development, FMRP helps control when and where proteins are made in the brain, supporting its ability to change and adapt in response to things we experience and the environment around us.
