Amphibian biodiversity is declining worldwide and collecting information about their habitats and populations via monitoring is vital for conservation efforts. However, it is difficult to accurately monitor amphibians using conventional methods. To address these issues, scientists have developed a novel technique to identify the amphibious species that live in an area through environmental DNA analysis. It is hoped that the new method will revolutionize species monitoring, as it will enable anyone to easily survey a habitat by collecting water samples. from Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily https://ift.tt/fiWGY7j

Roughly 35 million years ago, Earth cooled rapidly. At roughly the same time, the Drake Passage formed between South America and the Antarctic, paving the way for the Antarctic Circumpolar Current.

A key technical challenge in creating new sulphur-based medicines has been overcome, leading to the prospect of many new therapeutic 'weapons' in the fight against disease and illness. Every successful drug has a part of it that physically fits into the exact biochemical pathway it is trying to disrupt. This part of the drug is known as a 'pharmacophore' and generating new ones is a key goal in drug discovery. Sulphur-based pharmacophores are highly versatile and seen as very promising to drug developers but are rare due to the challenges of synthesising them. Now, scientists have designed a method to generate sulphur pharmacophores using a catalyst specially developed by the scientists themselves, known as pentanidium. Their method could be used to synthesise a broad range of new pharmacophores that could be paired with different types of molecules to form new drugs. from Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily https://ift.tt/dY0xnpl
