Researchers have used a cutting-edge robotic system capable of synthesizing hundreds of metal complexes to develop a possible ...

Robots are starting to do in a few days what medicinal chemists once needed months to attempt, churning out hundreds of ...

A team at RMIT University in Melbourne say that extremely small metal particles – which they dub ‘nanodots’ – could be ...

Researchers have created tiny metal-based particles that push cancer cells over the edge while leaving healthy cells mostly unharmed. The particles work by increasing internal stress in cancer cells ...

MIT scientists have achieved the first-ever lab synthesis of verticillin A, a complex fungal compound discovered in 1970. Its delicate structure stalled chemists for decades, despite differing from ...

Most chemical compouds are still unknown to science. How many new ones can we make by combining elements from the periodic table? When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Natural sunscreens shield the skin from harmful radiation, without triggering allergic reactions. In a recently published ...

Figure 1: Growth rates as a function of sulfuric acid and highly oxygenated molecule (HOM) concentrations. We further consider two very different experiments. During the first experiment, the HOM ...

Antibiotic resistance is turning routine infections into life threatening events, and the traditional pipeline for new drugs is not keeping up. In response, laboratories are handing a growing share of ...
