Research now published in ACS’ Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry shows that, in preliminary in vitro laboratory tests, espresso compounds can inhibit tau protein aggregation – a process that is believed to be involved in the onset of Alzheimer’s disease.

Scientists from the University of Surrey worked closely with counterparts from the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) in France, a leading facility in neutron science and technology, and CERN to find out more about the radioactive decay of Terbium 152, a medically relevant isotope that could help create revolutionary targeted cancer diagnosis and therapies.

Petri dish, also known as a culture plate or a cell-culture dish, is a cylindrical or round, lidded container used in biology laboratories.

It is important for researchers to ensure that their studies are internally valid because it affects the credibility of the research findings.
