Delaware Farm Innovation Could Replace Antibiotics in Turkeys
A new feed supplement uses virus-derived enzymes to fight bacterial infections in turkeys without antibiotics. Delaware poultry farmers may soon have access to this precision technology that targets harmful bacteria while protecting helpful gut microbes.
Aloe Vera Compound Shows Promise Against Alzheimer's
Scientists discovered that a natural compound in aloe vera may help slow the enzymes linked to memory loss in Alzheimer's disease. While still early research, the plant-based molecule shows strong potential for future drug development.
Aloe Vera Compound Shows Promise for Alzheimer's Treatment
Scientists discovered that beta-sitosterol, a natural compound in Aloe vera, strongly binds to key enzymes linked to Alzheimer's memory loss. Computer models show the plant compound could help slow cognitive decline, opening new paths for future treatments.
Scientists Create Greener Way to Make Life-Saving Drugs
Researchers have engineered enzymes that make crucial cancer and blood disorder medications with far less waste and no toxic chemicals. The breakthrough could transform how 117 of the top 200 prescription drugs are manufactured.
New Test Strip Detects Cancer Markers Like Blood Sugar Test
Scientists created a simple test strip that could detect cancer as easily as checking blood sugar, making early diagnosis accessible to everyone. The breakthrough uses enzymes to spot disease markers at concentrations a trillion times lower than glucose.
