Shinshu University

Researchers from Shinshu University and Chiba University develop a novel bio-hybrid drone using odor-sensing antennae from silkworm moths. Incorporation of an electroantennography (EAG) sensor to detect odorants and optimization of the electrode and enclosure structure in the robot enhanced the odor search range, detection precision, and system performance of the drone, thus, improving its application in diverse environments.

Blood transfusion, which are usually life-saving procedures, can become life-threatening if they trigger an allergic reaction. However, the mechanisms behind allergic transfusion reactions are not well known. This study revealed that such allergic reactions might be related to food allergies, triggered by the presence of relevant allergens in the donated blood based on the food the donor consumed prior to donation.

The spinal column posture evaluated by the examination. The left shows the posture in which the anterior-posterior balance of the spinal column is balanced, and the center and the right are the upper body protruding forward with respect to the pelvis and the center of gravity forward. As we get older, the center of gravity tends to move forward. By evaluating this, it is possible to detect a slight decline in cognitive function.
