Flower Fragrances Reduce Stress Photo Courtesy: FreeDigitalPhotos.net It has been known for some time that certain plant fragrances have the ability to calm a person's mood and help to relax and reduce stress. Researchers in Japan have now shown that certain fragrances reduce stress when inhaled by changing gene activity and blood chemistry. The scientists used linalool, a pleasant scented natural component of many plant oils, to determine the effectiveness of fragrances on stress levels. Linalool reduced stress heightened immune system cell levels back to normal and decreased the activity of over 100 genes that increase activity when stress levels rise. It is hoped that the findings from this study can be used to develop tests for identifying specific fragrances that reduce stress.

Brown was the first successful 'test-tube' baby to be born. She was born as a result of research done by Dr. Patrick Steptoe and Dr. Robert Edwards. They were searching for a solution to enable infertile couples to become parents. They removed an egg cell and fertilized it in the laboratory. The next step was the difficult part... the egg had to be implanted into the mother. Most of these pregnancies only lasted a few weeks. Louise Brown was the first to make it past this hurdle. This research has helped many people who could not become parents before to have their own children. Find out what else occurred on this day in science history. AboutOn This Day in Science History - July 26 July 26th marks the passing of William A. Mitchell. Mitchell was a food chemist for the General Foods Corporation and the inventor of products like Pop Rocks and the orange drink Tang. Pop Rocks were the center of an urban legend where Mikey from the Life cereal commercials died when ate the candy and washed it down with a cola making his stomach explode. General Foods countered the claims with an ad campaign in 45 major publications and 50,000 letters to school principals. Mitchell toured the country to show people that Pop Rocks weren't dangerous. Tang was originally sold as a powdered breakfast drink in 1959, but nobody really drank it. It wasn't until 1965 when NASA needed something to hide the 'nasty' taste of the water produced by the life support systems during the Gemini missions. They turned to Tang as the solution. General Foods started marketing Tang as the drink the astronauts use in space and sales took off. The difference in sales led most people to believe Tang was devel AboutGene linked to increasingly common type of blood cancer California and Arizona researchers have identified a gene variant that carries nearly twice the risk of developing an increasingly common type of blood cancer, according to a study published online today by the science journal Nature Genetics .
