Scientists have made an important step in order to better understand the relationships between vegetation and climate. So-called extremely low-volatility organic compounds, which are produced by ...

Maine researchers have identified a plant-based compound that prevents infectious biofilm formation. The new compound may help to combat the rise in antibiotic resistance. The applications include ...

Using a compound from a centuries-old Chinese traditional medicine, a Yale University researcher has been able to prevent the formation of kidney-destroying cysts in a mouse model of polycystic kidney ...

Osteoblasts derived from MSCs are cells required for bone formation. Oxidative phosphorylation produces a lot of ATP and other products including NAD+ and ROS. These factors play important roles in ...

Analysis of organic compounds – called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) – extracted from the Ryugu asteroid and Murchison meteorite has found that certain PAHs likely formed in the cold areas ...

Scientists have used the James Webb Space Telescope to detect a new carbon compound in space for the first time. The carbon compound is known as methyl cation, or CH3+. It is important because it aids ...

Three studies find that a family of organic compounds affects the formation and initial growth of atmospheric aerosol particles in clean air — with implications for our knowledge of the climate ...

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are used in a wide variety of industries, playing a vital role in several technologies essential for modern life. 1 One of the most notable applications is ...
