The ability of bacteria to control the biophysical properties of their membrane phospholipids allows them to thrive in a wide range of physical environments. Fatty acid biosynthesis is an energy ...

The abdominal aorta begins after the aorta passes through a muscle called the diaphragm, at the level of the twelfth thoracic vertebra (a spot in the upper abdomen). From there, it travels downward, ...

Double diaphragm pumps are also known as membrane pumps. These units have two flexible membranes for handling a variety of fluids—from thin solvents to highly viscous liquids. Most are self ...

If you're keen to save on your setup, the best membrane keyboards can help you stay nimble on the battlefield without breaking the bank. These decks won't hold up to their premium mechanical ...

The question is, though: Are you breathing efficiently? The answer to that depends on whether or not you’re fully using your diaphragm, a key breathing muscle. Like any muscle of the body ...

When you drink a nice refreshing glass of water, do you ever think, "Gee, I'm glad that polymeric desalination membrane did its job!" Probably not, but maybe you should. Those thin polyamide ...

A stitch can be a thorn in your side while racking up miles, but can it be prevented? Harry Bullmore finds out ...
