Astronomers using the MeerKAT radio telescope in South Africa have discovered the most distant hydroxyl megamaser ever detected, opening a new radio astronomy frontier. A hydroxyl megamaser is a ...

According to a study published in Water Research in April 2020, superoxide produces hydroxyl radicals in lake water. Hydroxyl radicals break down poorly biodegradable organic matter such as humic ...

The method of determining the hydroxyl number in polyols and oxo alcohols specified in DIN EN ISO 4629-2 derives its theory from the catalytic acetylation of the hydroxyl group. Once the intermediate ...

Scott F. Singleton, an associate professor of medicinal chemistry and natural products at the University of North Carolina School of Pharmacy, calls the results "wonderfully unexpected, but in a way ...

The hydroxyl radical (•OH) is among the most reactive species in water, playing a pivotal role in atmospheric chemistry, environmental remediation and biological damage. Generated chiefly by ...

A recent upsurge in planet-warming methane may not be caused by increasing emissions, as previously thought, but by methane lingering longer in the atmosphere. That’s the conclusion of two independent ...
