In a paper for Science Advances, environmental biotechnologists at Wuhan University write that their sponge "can remove 98.0 ...

In a new study led by researchers at Wuhan University, scientists have developed a filter, made with cotton and squid bone, that can be used to adsorb ...

This is referred to as "squid bone" in the researchers' paper; more specifically, the chitin comes from the squid's gladius, or the semi-transparent, rigid material that supports the squid's body.

To address that demand, they created a sponge-like substance called Ct-Cel biomass foam that combines two substances found in ...

Microplastics are everywhere. They have been found on the peak of Mount Everest and in creatures inhabiting the deepest ...

Microplastics are everywhere, which is why scientists have been dedicating a lot of time to trying to figure out a way to safely extract them. Now, it seems a super sponge-like foam that borrows ...
