In-Home cancer screening
Many cancers can be successfully treated when caught early. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)Trusted Source support early screening for certain cancers, like colon, breast, and cervical cancer, and recommend tests like FIT testsTrusted Source and HPV testsTrusted Source.
Since many types of cancer do not present early symptoms, at-home cancer screening kits check for markers that can indicate whether a person has cancer.
Tests can detect chemicals that cancer cells prod...

University of British Columbia and China’s Sichuan University researchers have developed a new technique that filters out microplastics from drinking water
UBC device uses wood dust to trap up to 99.9 per cent of microplastics in water
Could plants be the answer to the looming threat of microplastic pollution? Scientists at UBC’s BioProducts Institute found that if you add tannins—natural plant compounds that make your mouth pucker if you bite into an unripe fruit—to a layer of wood dust, you can create a filter that traps virtually all microplastic particles present in water.
While the experiment remains a lab set-up at this stage...
