A visual understanding of optical rotation using corn syrup

Corn syrup mantle plumes.

In the dark, microscopic plastic beads in the 200-gallon tank of corn syrup glow and sparkle when light from a projector shines at them in geophysical fluid dynamicist Christopher Kincaid’s laboratory at the University of Rhode Island. Experiments with this goo could help explain whether columns of magma rising up from near the Earth’s core might explain supervolcanic activity. Scientists have ...

It has been a long time that sucrose is used as the conventional substitute for nectar and pollen in the bee feeding to provide its nutritional needs during winter and stimulation of springchr('39')s larval nourishment. High fructose corn syrup is ...
