This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Nowadays it is possible to produce plastics from sugar or vegetable oils, but up to now fossil oil has been too cheap for the production of bioplastics to be profitable. That explains why the plastic-producing bacteria, developed some years ago by researchers at the Centre for Chemistry and Chemical Engineering (Kemic

New data by the research infrastructure ICOS confirms that natural carbon sinks such as the ocean and forests are not stable. Climate change makes these sinks more vulnerable, in some cases even turning them into carbon emitters. This compromises current climate targets and action plans, reserachers say. Fluxes, the European Greenhouse Gas Bulletin, is a new publication by the reserach infrastruct

We follow up our systematic work environment management every year. This year’s follow-up paints an overall picture that I think is worth pausing to consider. I can see a positive shift in the way we discuss and address work environment issues. Many people have been involved in this development, and I would therefore like to take this opportunity to encourage everyone to take pride in this year’s

For decades, large stretches of human DNA were dismissed as ‘junk’ and considered to serve no real purpose. In a new study in Cell Genomics, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show that the repetitive part of the human genome plays an active role during early brain development and may also be relevant for understanding brain diseases. DNA carries the complete set of instructions an organism

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated the link between exposure to PFAS and the development of asthma. The results show that among children whose mothers had very high levels of PFAS exposure during pregnancy, the risk of asthma was significantly higher than among children whose mothers had lower levels of PFAS exposure. PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are
