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 ...

Research identifies high-risk areas for poor air quality in dairy barns and suggests practical solutions for better ...

The compounds of carbon are known as Organic Compounds. Also, apart from carbon, most of the organic compounds contain hydrogen, oxygen or other elements. Like methane, ethanol, ethane, ethene, ethyne ...

Atropisomers are a class of stereoisomers (chemical compounds that differ in spatial arrangement of atoms) arising from restricted rotation around a single bond and have various applications in ...

Significant amounts of particle-phase organic compounds are present in the exhaust of diesel vehicles. It is believed that some of these compounds have a greater impact on human health and the ...

Recent research is uncovering the link between exposure to semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) and changes in the gut microbiome. Scientists are particularly interested in how these products ...

Organic boronic acids are widely used as starting material in the synthesis of various useful chemicals. But, some organic boronic acids are unstable and lead to unwanted 'side reactions.' Thus, they ...

Elemental analysis offers scientists a method of determining the elements present in an organic compound, and in what quantity. Various fields of science rely on this type of analysis for research, ...

Ice grains from Enceladus reveal the richest mix of organics yet, offering the strongest clues that the moon’s hidden ocean ...

Technology could be used to detect subtle shifts in bodily markers in breath that herald infections and cancers ...

Scientists have discovered that the mineral jarosite breaks down organic compounds when it is flash-heated, with implications for Mars research. Jarosite is an iron sulphate and it is one of several ...
