The Law Of Urination, Programmer High Jinks
By Lauren K. Wolf
To demonstrate the "law of urination," researchers in Hu’s lab shot this video, in which a large milk carton represents a large animal’s bladder and a small cup represents a small animal’s bladder. The large carton has a long tube (a proxy for a long urethra) exiting its bottom, and the small cup has a short exit tube. When the researchers release the liquid from each container, the fluid takes the same amount of time to exit each container, just as urine takes the same amount of time to leave an 11-lb cat and an 18,000-lb elephant.

Tesla Motors is the only firm making a battery-powered car that runs for 300 miles without needing a recharge. The drawback? Those batteries are expensive. At a Tesla launch event, C&EN Senior Editor Alex Scott takes a test drive and then looks under the hood for a lower cost solution.

Bioelectronics proposes a class of therapies that are not pills or injections but miniaturized implantable devices. As shown in this video, these devices would be designed to read and correct electrical signals that pass along the nerves of the body and are associated with a range of diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease, arthritis, asthma, hypertension, and diabetes.

A neutralization reaction takes place in Lonza's flow plate reactor. Gas enters at the bottom and is mixed in a micro-venturi unit. The liquid changes color from blue to yellow as the reaction takes place and the pH changes. The smallest channel width is 0.5 mm and the bigger circles have a diameter of 2.5 mm.
