A Better Way To Make Hydrogen From Biofuels
http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~3/370507964/080820163111.htm
Researchers here have found a way to convert ethanol and other biofuels into hydrogen very efficiently. A new catalyst makes hydrogen from ethanol with 90 percent yield, at a workable temperature, and using inexpensive ingredients. The new catalyst is much less expensive than others being developed around the world, because it does not contain precious metals, such as platinum or rhodium.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370507964" height="1" width="1"/>

The cost-effectiveness of vaccination in the US against human papillomavirus, a ually transmitted virus that causes cervical cancer, will be optimized by achieving universal vaccine coverage in young adolescent girls, by targeting initial "catch-up" efforts to vaccinate women younger than 21 years of age, and by revising current screening policies, according to an analysis by Harvard School of Public Health researchers.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370507967" height="1" width="1"/>

One Sleepless Night Increases Dopamine In The Human Brain
http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~3/370475456/080819213033.htm
Just one night without sleep can increase the amount of the chemical dopamine in the human brain, according to new imaging research in the Journal of Neuroscience. Because drugs that increase dopamine, like amphetamines, promote wakefulness, the findings offer a potential mechanism explaining how the brain helps people stay awake despite the urge to sleep. However, the study also shows that the increase in dopamine cannot compensate for the cognitive deficits caused by sleep deprivation.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370475456" height="1" width="1"/>

Making 'Good' Fat From Muscle And Vice Versa

A surprise discovery -- that calorie-burning brown fat can be produced experimentally from muscle precursor cells in mice -- raises the prospect of new ways to fight obesity and overweight, report Dana-Farber scientists. They demonstrated that a previously known molecular switch, PRDM16, regulates the creation of brown fat from immature muscle cells. They also determined that the process is a two-way street: Knocking out PRDM16 in brown fat cells can convert them into muscle cells.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370349107" height="1" width="1"/>

When virally infected cells in the brain called astrocytes come in contact with antiviral T cells of the immune system, they undergo a unique series of changes that dramatically reorganize their shape and function, according to researchers. Intriguingly, the new data indicate that astrocytes may defend themselves from attacking T cells by engulfing (gobbling up) the aggressors.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370507969" height="1" width="1"/>

http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~3/370507974/080820162858.htm
Using pain treatments which contain codeine may be risky for some breastfeeding mothers, according to new research. The research suggests that the codeine used in some pain relief drugs can actually have harmful and even fatal results for infants when ingested by some breastfeeding mothers.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370507974" height="1" width="1"/>

For years scientists have struggled to understand the decline and slow recovery of Atlantic salmon, a once abundant and highly prized game and food fish native to New England rivers. Biologists agree that poor marine survival is affecting salmon in the US and Canada, but specific causes are difficult to determine in the ocean. Small acoustic tags and associated technology may provide some answers.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370475464" height="1" width="1"/>

Chemists have measured for the first time the impact that dirty smoke from ships cruising at sea and generating electricity in port can have on the air quality of coastal cities. The scientists report that the impact of dirty smoke from ships burning high-sulfur fuel can be substantial, on some days accounting for nearly one-half of the fine, sulfur-rich particulate matter in the air known to be hazardous to human health.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370313400" height="1" width="1"/>

Scientists have discovered why one of the world's most important agricultural diseases emerged, according to research published in the Journal of General Virology. Maize streak virus (MSV) causes the main virus disease of Africa's most important food crop. By comparing the genome of the virus to those of its less harmful relatives, scientists have discovered how and why MSV became a serious pest and spread so rapidly across Africa.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370313401" height="1" width="1"/>

Honey bees industriously bring pollen and nectar to the hive, but along with the bounty comes a wide variety of pesticides, according to Penn State researchers. Add the outside assault to the pesticides already in the waxy structure of the hive, and bee researchers see a problem difficult to evaluate and correct. However, an innovative approach may mitigate at least some beeswax contamination.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370142623" height="1" width="1"/>

Infection Blocks Lung's Protective Response Against Tobacco Smoke
http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~3/370142624/080819160239.htm
An infection that often goes undetected can block the lung's natural protective response against tobacco smoke, according to researchers at National Jewish Health. Mice exposed to tobacco smoke infected with the common lung pathogen Myclplasma pneumoniae fail to mount the protective antioxidant response in the lungs that mice do when exposed to tobacco smoke alone. The findings suggest one mechanism that may cause a minority of smokers to develop chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.<img src="http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/370142624" height="1" width="1"/>
