Photosystem II (PSII) is the only biological machine capable of splitting water into oxygen using sunlight. It plays a ...
A set of breakthroughs from scientists at the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) is ...
An atom consists of a heavy center, called the nucleus, made of particles called protons and neutrons. An atom has lighter particles called electrons that you can think of as orbiting around the ...
Health influencers – perhaps including Health Secretary RFK Jr. – are promoting the chemical as an elixir that improves memory and focus. But evidence for these claims is thin.
The manuscript entitled "Structure of an oxygen-induced tubular nanocompartment in Pyrococcus furiosus" by Wenfei Song et al. employs whole-cell mass spectrometry and cryo-EM (including tomography, ...
When P. furiosus cells encounter an oxygen-containing environment, oxygen can be oxidized to toxic superoxide produced, for example by electron carriers. Superoxide reductase (SOR) alleviates ...
Apr 15, 2025 Boosting the selectivity in oxygen electrocatalysis using chiral nanoparticles as electron-spin filters In this study, chiral gold nanoparticles with a concave vortex cube structure were ...
Nitrogen is an essential component in the production of amino acids and nucleic acids - both necessary for cell growth and function.
The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in acidic media suffers from sluggish kinetics, primarily due to the spin-dependent electron transfer involved. The direct generation of spin-polarized electrons at ...
Lewis Structure for CO2 The Lewis structure for CO 2 is represented as: Each line represents a pair of shared electrons, forming double bonds between the carbon and each oxygen atom. Molecular ...
This study investigates the effects of high-energy electron beam irradiation on fumed silica fillers and the subsequent impact on the properties of synthesized silicone rubber. A systematic ...
