Scientists warn: When restoring historical paintings, be careful with polar solvents
Even small amounts of water can lead to rapid formation of metal soap crystals in historical oil paintings.
This one-atom chemical reaction could transform drug discovery
Pharmaceutical synthesis is often quite complex; simplifications are needed to speed up the initial phase of drug development and lower the cost of generic production.
New enzyme could mean better drugs
Just as a choreographer’s notation tells a dancer to strike a particular pose, an enzyme newly discovered by Rice University scientists is able to tell specific molecules precisely how to arrange themselves, down to the angle of single hydrogen bonds.
NSF Announces New Sci-Tech Center to Study Ocean Chemical-Microbe Network and Climate Change
A new Science and Technology Center, which the National Science Foundation (NSF) announced today, will conduct transformative research, along with education and outreach, to promote a deeper understanding and appreciation of the chemicals and chemical processes that underpin ocean ecosystems.
