螞蟻能嗅出癌癥的味道
Ants have the ability to sniff out cancerous cells in humans, a new study has discovered, suggesting they could be used for cancer diagnosis in the future.
一項新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，螞蟻能嗅出人體內(nèi)的癌細(xì)胞，這表明螞蟻可用于未來對癌癥的診斷。
Researchers from the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) discovered that ant species Formica fusca has a well developed sense of smell.
法國國家科學(xué)研究中心的研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，絲光褐林蟻的嗅覺非常發(fā)達(dá)。
It was able to differentiate cancerous cells from healthy cells in humans, thanks to their sense of smell, limited trials revealed.
