Study finds treating peanuts with cold plasma could make them less allergenic

Researchers at 91丝瓜视频聽have聽found that聽briefly聽treating peanuts with cold plasma, an ionically charged gas that triggers chemical changes,聽reduces聽their potential聽to cause allergic reactions.聽The researchers say this is聽probably because the process聽causes聽changes to the protein structure,聽the part of the peanut that聽can聽trigger an immune response.聽The technology聽was also shown to聽improve聽functional properties important for food manufacturing.聽

91丝瓜视频 opens state-of-the-art greenhouse and research platform

91丝瓜视频 has officially opened a new teaching greenhouse and advanced plant phenotyping facilities at its Macdonald Campus, marking a major investment in climate-focused agricultural education and research. Designed for hands-on undergraduate and graduate training, the sustainable greenhouse features controlled growing bays, teaching labs, tissue culture facilities and classrooms, giving students direct experience with modern, climate-smart production systems.

Building Canada鈥檚 Future Environmental Leaders

A new NSERC CREATE initiative, MIXCHEM, is reshaping how Canada prepares researchers to confront the growing challenge of complex chemical mixtures in the environment. Prof. St茅phane Bayen, a leading voice in Food Science and Agricultural Chemistry, is helping drive this interdisciplinary program, which blends cutting鈥慹dge analytical training with hands鈥憃n experience across industry, government, and academia.

91丝瓜视频 researchers optimize process for converting human urine into clean energy

Researchers at 91丝瓜视频 have improved the efficiency of a method for converting human urine into clean energy.

The method employs microbial fuel cells (MFCs), which use bacteria to turn organic waste into electricity, providing a sustainable and low-cost means of treating wastewater while generating energy from an abundant source. The 91丝瓜视频 research provides insights into which urine concentrations are optimal for this process.

In polar regions,聽microbes are聽influencing聽climate change as frozen ecosystems thaw, 91丝瓜视频 review finds聽

Microbes across Earth鈥檚 coldest regions are becoming more active as glaciers,聽permafrost聽and sea ice thaw, accelerating carbon release and potentially amplifying climate change, according to a new international review聽from聽91丝瓜视频.聽

91丝瓜视频 researchers create shapeshifting materials that could power the next generation of soft robots

91丝瓜视频 engineers have developed new ultra-thin materials that can be programmed to move, fold and reshape themselves, much like animated origami. They open the door to softer, safer and more adaptable robots that could be used in medical tools that gently move inside the body, wearable devices that change shape on the skin or smart packaging that reacts to its environment.

91丝瓜视频 researchers identify a range of unexpected chemical contaminants in human milk

An interdisciplinary team including researchers at 91丝瓜视频 has found a range of unexpected chemical contaminants in human milk samples from Canada and South Africa. The chemicals include traces of pesticides, antimicrobials and additives used in plastics and personal-care products. The findings were published across five papers.
