Adding pets changed the makeup as well Gilbert saysâ they found more plant and soil bacteria in houses with indoor-outdoor dogs or cats.

However in infants born prematurely researchers at Washington University School of medicine in St louis have found that the population of bacteria in babies gastrointestinal tracts may depend more on their biological makeup and gestational age at birth than on environmental factors.

Researchers are developing vision-correcting displays for computer monitors that would let people see text and images clearly without their glasses or contact lenses.

When laser light contacts the molecules present within the powder it experiences a scattering effect that can be analyzed to construct a sort of molecular ingerprintthat reveals its exact chemical makeup says Vladislav Yakovlev professor in the biomedical engineering department at Texas A&m University. s
