We Homo sapiens seem to believe we are omniscient or at least have that capability (see my posting from 2/02/2009 entitled Science and Egotism). Here, I present 2 newly published papers which support a different perspective. One that sees Homo sapiens as fallible and incapable of comprehending even our natural environment here on earth, not to mention the wonders and vastness of our universe.
Just saw this one referenced at the publisher's website, Mary Liebert Inc
Journal of Medicinal Food
Hepatoprotective Effects of an Anthocyanin Fraction from Purple-Fleshed Sweet Potato Against Acetaminophen-Induced Liver Damage in Mice[1]
And here from ScienceDirect.com, along the same vein as the above;
Journal of Free Radical Biology & Medicine
Assessment of wound-site redox environment and the significance of Rac2 in cutaneous healing[2]
