A compound with potential as a treatment for ALS has gained further promise in a new study that showed it improved the condition of mice whose motor neurons had been damaged by an environmental toxin ...

Dr. Hartman recommends this rich cream to protect the skin barrier, add hydration and help even skin tone. “The formula uses ...

Lou Gehrig’s disease – also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis – is an incurable, fatal disease that affects as many as 30,000 individuals in the US. But a new study published in the Journal of ...

(Jena, Germany) Quantum computers could vastly increase the capabilities of IT systems, bringing major changes worldwide. However, there is still a long way to go before such a device can actually be ...

Cisplatin is a widely used anticancer drug that works through the DNA-binding ability of its single platinum center. A new study suggests that when it comes to anticancer treatments, two metal centers ...

Copper released into the environment from fungicides, brake pads, antifouling paints on boats and other sources may be contributing significantly to stratospheric ozone depletion, according to a new ...

New research by UC Berkeley geochemists shows that copper in soil and seawater acts as a catalyst to turn organic matter into both methyl bromide and methyl chloride, two potent halocarbon compounds ...

In an accidental discovery, chemists have stumbled on a catalyst that strips only carbon dioxide from the air — ignoring oxygen — and converts it into a useful compound. The copper-based compound is ...

In previous publications 1,2 dealing with the ‘Volatile copper compound’, we reported that the unstable subliming cuprous salts of fatty acids (mainly that of formic acid) gave rise to effects which ...

Chemists have now synthesized a molecule that can perform the function of a computing unit in a quantum computer. Quantum computers could vastly increase the capabilities of IT systems, bringing major ...

As Earth's ozone layer recovers from past emissions of now-banned CFCs and halons, other chemicals are emerging as major causes of stratospheric ozone depletion. Atmospheric scientists have been ...

Copper is refined from complex compounds containing elements such as zinc, lead and other elements. During copper smelting, it is essential to understand the complicated morphology of several ...
