Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry
From January 2003 the Royal Society of Chemistry is merging J Chem Soc Perkin Transactions 1 & 2 to form: Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry. view more (2002-07-24)
More recycling on the farm could reduce environmental problems
Growing environmental problems resulting from farming argue for a shift toward practices that use lower inputs of pesticides and energy and more recycling of energy and materials. view more (2007-05-01)
Drop in acid rain altering Appalachian stream water
Appalachian hardwood forests may be getting a respite from acid rain but data from a long-term ecological study of stream chemistry suggests that the drop in acid rain may be changing biological activity in the ecosystem and hiking dissolved carbon dioxide in forest streams. view more (2006-12-12)
Chemists forge a new form of iron
An international team of chemists has discovered a new and unexpected form of iron, a finding that adds to the fundamental understanding of an element that is among the most abundant on Earth and that, in nature, is an essential catalyst for life. view more (2006-06-02)
Microbe has huge role in ocean life, carbon cycle
Researchers at Oregon State University and Diversa Corporation have discovered that the smallest free-living cell known also has the smallest genome, or genetic structure, of any independent cell-and yet it dominates life in the oceans, thrives where most other cells would die, and plays a huge role in the cycling of carbon on Earth. view more (2005-08-19)
Plants tell caterpillars when it's safe to forage
The world is filled with cues that could influence the daily feeding patterns of an organism. Many plants, for example, respond to foraging damage by releasing specialized chemical signals-volatile organic compounds that evaporate in the air-that attract the forager's natural enemies. view more (2006-05-16)
Pollutant haze heats the Arctic
Arctic climate already is known to be particularly prone to global warming caused by industrial and automotive emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. view more (2006-05-11)
Inside rocks, implications for finding life on Mars
If a future space mission to Mars brings rocks back to Earth, Schopf said the techniques he has used, called confocal laser scanning microscopy and Raman spectroscopy, could enable scientists to look at microscopic fossils inside the rocks to search for signs of life, such as organic cell walls. view more (2006-02-01)
NMSU/Wake Forest solar breakthrough will help spur viability of alternative energy
Imagine being able to paint your roof with enough alternative energy to heat and cool your home. What if soldiers in the field could carry an energy source in a roll of plastic wrap in their backpacks? view more (2005-10-10)
Small molecule interactions were central to the origin of life
In an important new paper forthcoming in the June issue of The Quarterly Review of Biology, Robert Shapiro (New York University) argues against the widely held theory that the origin of life began with the spontaneous appearance of a large, replicating molecule such as RNA. view more (2006-05-17)
The inside dope
Often, things can be improved by a little 'contamination.' Steel, for example is iron with a bit of carbon mixed in. To produce materials for modern electronics, small amounts of impurities are introduced into silicon - a process called doping. view more (2007-07-27)
Rutgers findings a step toward safer chemicals in labs and industry
Safe, versatile and environmentally friendly chemicals could replace hazardous, petroleum-based solvents used in science labs and industrial plants. view more (2005-10-24)
Beneficial effects of no-till farming depend upon future climate change
By storing carbon in their fields through no-till farming practice, farmers can help countries meet targeted reductions in atmospheric carbon dioxide and reduce the harmful effects of global warming. view more (2005-10-13)
Microscopic brain imaging in the palm of your hand
Researchers at Stanford University have demonstrated a promising, minimally invasive optical technique that can capture micron-scale images from deep in the brains of live subjects. view more (2005-08-25)
Odd energy mechanism in bacteria analyzed
Scientists at Oregon State University have successfully cultured in a laboratory a microorganism with a gene for an alternate form of photochemistry - an advance that may ultimately help shed light on the ecology of the world's oceans. view more (2005-11-04)
The critical importance of mangroves to ocean life
Mangroves, the backbone of the tropical ocean coastlines, are far more important to the global ocean's biosphere than previously thought. view more (2006-02-28)
Preserved in crystal
Scientists at the Weizmann Institute of Science recently discovered a new source of well-preserved ancient DNA in fossil bones. view more (2006-02-03)
New markers of climate change
A new way to monitor the effects of climate change on rainforests is being investigated at Cambridge University. Researchers are using biomarkers in the shape of epiphytes ('air-plants' which grow on other plants) to find out how their photosynthesis and water evaporation have been affected by climate change over the last 50 years. view more (2005-07-13)
Solvent exposure linked to birth defects in babies of male painters
Men who paint for a living may be placing their unborn children at increased risk of birth defects and low birth weight. view more (2006-09-28)
Connect the Quantum Dots
By using the unique photophysical properties of quantum dots, researchers Drs. Francisco Raymo, Ibrahim Yildiz, and Massimilliano Tomasulo were able to identify operating principles to probe molecular recognition events with luminescence measurements. view more (2006-07-19)
