Chemists in South Korea have created a stable color-changing sensor that displays an easily quantifiable response to the pH of its surroundings. Published in Microsystems & Nanoengineering, Dong-Hwan ...

The old Bray-1 method required multiple samples to provide a full nutrient picture of the sample, slowing the process and increasing the cost. In contrast, the new method, called Mehlich-3, requires ...

Nanotechnology could be a new solution in art restoration, using nanoparticles for effective cleaning and stabilization with ...

Abstract: The rapid advancement of Internet of Things (IoT) technology presents significant opportunities for improving agricultural practices, particularly in soil management. This research focuses ...

A research team from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has introduced a soil amendment called humic acid-modified bentonite (HAMB). This amendment effectively ...

Gardeners know that healthy soils lead to healthy plants. But how do we ensure our soils have what they need for optimal plant growth and development? A soil test is a great start. Whether you opt for ...

The illustration is a summary map of the organellar pH measured with a single pH-sensitive probe, SITE-pHorin, which possesses an ultra-pH sensitivity enhanced by the quantum entanglement effect. As ...

Pine needle mulch doesn’t significantly acidify soil because the needles lose their acidity as they decompose. Bare spots under pine trees are more likely caused by dry shade and root competition than ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. In other industries, such as the pharmaceutical industry, the ...

Abstract: Monitoring soil pH is important for optimizing plant biomass production, understanding nutrient cycling, predicting and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, and improving soil health. Soil ...
