Xenon is one of the six noble gases. Its name derives from the Greek word for “strange”. In medicine, it has been used as an anaesthetic since the early 1950s and, more recently, to treat brain ...

The gas xenon, like the other noble, or inert, gases, is known for doing very little. The class of elements, because of its molecular structure, don’t typically interact with many chemicals.

Able to cross the blood-brain barrier, Xenon gas seemed to perk the mice right up, which began to become particularly active ...

Researchers are now looking to xenon — a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas that showed protective effects in the brain when inhaled by mice. A clinical trial at Brigham and Women’s ...

In new research released this week, scientists have found evidence in mice that xenon gas might be able to help treat the neurodegenerative condition. Scientists at Brigham and Women’s Hospital ...

One way to achieve this is by adding the noble gas xenon when manufacturing digital memories. This technology enables a more even material coating even in small cavities. The electronics of the ...

Xenon gas has previously seen use in medicine as an anaesthetic and a way to protect the brain while treating injuries to the organ. Its chemical structure allows it to easily slip through blood ...

Lukas Furtenbach explains why using Xenon to help climb Everest in a week is a new tool but is really no different than familiar aids like bottled oxygen.

The electronics of the future can be made even smaller and more efficient by getting more memory cells to fit in less space.

The study found that Xenon gas inhalation suppressed neuroinflammation, reduced brain atrophy, and increased protective neuronal states in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease. Results are published in ...

The study found that Xenon gas inhalation suppressed neuroinflammation, reduced brain atrophy, and increased protective neuronal states in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease. A phase 1 clinical ...
