In this video, we take a show TKN analysis, a critical method for determining total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN) in soil and wastewater samples.

TKN is a key indicator of the nitrogen content in environmental samples, providing critical information for monitoring and assessing environmental impacts. We demonstrate each step of the Kjeldahl method for TKN determination, which involves digestion, distillation and titration, and how it can be applied to both soil and wastewater samples.

Are alternative meats actually better for us and the planet? Carolyn Beans investigates the differences between farmed meat, plant-based meat and lab-grown meat.

Forever chemicals are extremely useful in industry, but they can also leak into the environment, your drinking water and your blood. And they last (practically) forever. But now chemists have a new way to destroy them: burning them with water.

Your weekly science news roundup is here.

Researchers have developed modified iron oxide particles, known as "smart rust", that can grab onto pollutants in water and help with their cleanup. The new method is cheaper and more simple than other alternatives, they say.

Researchers developed a new approach for simulating seafood, using plant-based proteins and a 3D printer, and used it to make a snack inspired by fried calamari rings from squid.

Researchers explored the effects of adding oil to tempera paint to improve understanding of how various paint formulas would affect the appearance of finished works.

Concrete is the most important building material on Earth – and it’s also responsible for a MASSIVE chunk of global carbon emissions. Find out how a surprising discovery in 1973 could dramatically change how we make concrete forever.

In this video, Justin from the Institute of Human Anatomy discusses how lactose is metabolized in the body, the eventual slowdown and ceasing of lactase, what happens to the colon when bacteria start consuming lactose and the relevant anatomy of the digestive tract.

New computer simulations to represent the real conditions of newly formed sea spray aerosols have been designed. The researchers hope this “computational microscopy” will help improve understanding of and predict climate impacts of sea spray aerosol.
