EPA plans review of Ford's gas mileage claims

Image
According to a Los Angeles Times report, theEnvironmental Protection Agency (EPA) is apparently planning a review of Ford's gas mileage claims for two of its new hybrid vehicles - C-Max and Fusion - after Consumer Reports' (CR) recent findings that the hybrids fall short on the claimed fuel economy. The EPA's reported review plans for the two Ford hybrids come over a month after its earlier probe which revealed that Hyundai Motor and its associate, Kia Motors, had inflated their vehicles' fuel economy by at least one mile per gallon. The agency's interest in Ford's MPG claims for the two hybrids has been aroused after a report by a leading magazine like CR, which has revealed that the tests run on C-Max and Fusion have shown that Ford's miles per gallon (MPG) claims for the vehicles are inflated. Going by the CR findings, Ford's fuel economy claims for C-Max and Fusion fell short by nearly 20 percent --- while the Ford estimates sh...

New blood test to detect Alzheimer’s & cancer

A blood test that is used for antibodies which is a protein produced by the immune system may soon be used to detect Alzheimer’s and other diseases including some forms of cancer. Detecting the Alzheimer's via antibodies would be a simpler and less invasive method of diagnosing the disease. Typically, in developing blood test for diseases, researchers searched for antigens that are a protein secreted from a virus, bacteria, from some cancerous cells or in neurological conditions like Alzheimer’s that set off an immune response.  Only after identifying the antigen, the researchers would be able to search for antibodies or trace the signs that the immune system that has picked up and mounted a response. In Alzheimer's, or in a disease such as cancer, there is quite difficult to find out the antigens.  But researchers are doing ‘high throughput’ screening using thousands of synthetic molecules known as peptoids that could be bind with the antibodies.  The synth...
