    Notes: [Auszug] The technological utility of enzymes can be enhanced greatly by using them in organic solvents rather than their natural aqueous reaction media. Studies over the past 15 years have revealed not only that this change in solvent is feasible, but also that in such seemingly hostile environments ...

    Notes: [Auszug] The credo of 'artificial life' (ALife) aficionados is that life is about function, not form. Or, put another way, what separates the living from the dead is not a matter of matter but resides in patterns of information. Here on Earth, these patterns of information happen to manifest themselves ...

    Notes: [Auszug] There are three groups of living mammals — placentals, marsupials and the monotremes. The first two, along with some mammalian fossil relatives, have so-called 'tribosphenic' teeth, which provide a highly efficient way of chopping and grinding food. Monotreme ancestors are also thought to ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Biology is continually throwing up ethical dilemmas. And the thorniest issue of 2000 was that surrounding research on human embryonic stem cells. These cells can, in theory, give rise to any of the body's tissues — and so have enormous potential in regenerative medicine. But 'pro-life' ...
