The earwig’s delicate, paper-thin wings open to more than ten times their folded size, thanks to its origami-like creases. ETH ZÜRICH and Purdue University Image As the microscopic, tear-shaped ...
More than 90 percent of the Aedes aegypti mosquitoes tested in Cambodia showed 'an extremely high level of resistance' to insecticides, a new study shows - Copyright ...
Resilin-based antibacterial nano-coatings can completely block bacteria from attaching to a surface. A collaborative team, led by researchers at RMIT University (Melbourne, Australia), has developed ...
The collaborative study led by researchers at RMIT University is the first reported use of antibacterial coatings made from resilin-mimetic proteins to fully block bacteria from attaching to a surface ...
A protein that gives fleas their bounce has been used to boot out bacteria cells, with lab results demonstrating the material's potential for preventing medical implant infection. (Nanowerk News) The ...
Resilin is a super-elastic protein produced by many insects, which enables them to jump and stretch their wings. It’s what enables some species of fleas, for example, to jump up to 200 times their ...
Scientists in Australia have developed a smart, bacteria-repelling coating based on resilin the ultra-elastic protein that gives fleas their legendary jumping power. When applied to surfaces like ...

What's that sound? It may sound like a very loud buzzing or droning that lasts all day and into the night. But before you call the police to report what you think could be a siren, whine or roar, ...
Folding smartphones of the future could have screens made of insect protein. It’s the most elastic material on earth, and it’s what allows a flea to jump 100 times its own height, or the dragonfly to ...
