Nanoparticles can be used to detect certain lung diseases. The AiDA measurement method – based on the inhalation of nanoparticles – is easy to use and can complement other lung examinations. The method has now been tested on over 800 people, and the results look promising, according to a new thesis in aerosol technology. Measuring the structure of the lung is difficult; even lung scans cannot reli

What keeps spaghetti from disintegrating in boiling water? The answer, according to new research, is gluten. The amount of salt in the water also has an unexpected significance. Using advanced techniques, researchers examined the internal structure of regular and gluten-free spaghetti – straight off the shelf. The results show that gluten has a crucial role in protecting the structure of pasta dur

Allowing nature to cover up after human activities, known as rewilding, has several benefits. It improves the resilience of ecosystems, increases biodiversity and favours the interaction between nature and society. This is according to a new study from Lund University. Rewilding is a method that aims to re-establish animal and plant species that have disappeared from a particular area. In a new st

Growing forests can limit climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store the carbon in their biomass as they grow. How much carbon a forest stores varies between tree species, the forests age, weather conditions and how the forest is managed. Young growing forests store a lot of carbon, as the forest gets older the carbon sequestration capacity decreases. When trees are f
