Police were reviewing video from surveillance cameras in an attempt to identify who trampled to death Damour.Criminal charges were possible, but identifying individual shoppers in Friday s video may prove difficult, said Detective Lt. Michael Fleming, a Nassau County police spokesman.Other workers were trampled as they tried to rescue the man, and customers stepped over him and became irate when officials said the store was closing because of the death, police and witnesses said.At least four other people, including a woman who was eight m

E. coli is an exceedingly common bacteria that lives in many places including your very own gut. It also a favorite organism for synthetic biologists looking to engineer useful microbes. By inserting just a few genes in E. coli, scientists have found they can coax the bacterium intomaking ready-to-use propane. You might know propane best as the gas that fires up your grill, but it powers a lot more than summer barbecues. Along with butane, propane also makes up liquid petroleum gas, which is used for heating, cooking, and fueling some vehicles. In other words, a renewable source of propane could do a lot of good for the en

In a study published today inNature Communications, scientists detail how they inserted a synthetic pathway into E. coli. The E. coli is engineered to make three new enzymes, which convert the fatty acid into useable propane. Eventually, the team hopes to make these bacteria also photosynthetic, so they can manufacture propane from solar energy鈥攁 miniature factory in a bacteria cell. That an ambitious and still far-off goal, given that the amount of propane E. coli
