breaking down the chemical structure of the polystyrene as it does so. Per the SciTechDaily report, it turns the foam into things like benzoic acid, a key component in the creation of many scents ...

The process uses an iron-based catalyst that cycles through oxidation phases, breaking down the chemical structure of the polystyrene as it does so. Per the SciTechDaily report, it turns the foam into ...

Using ANOVA, we compared which of the two models significantly better captures the data structure ... citraconic acid had the lowest score (0.98 h) (see Figure 4). Benzoic and glyceric acid were two ...

In living organisms, protein molecules with different chemical structures called proteoforms, are produced from a single gene ...

Scientists detected all five nucleobases -- building blocks of DNA and RNA -- in samples returned from asteroid Bennu by NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission.

Beginning in the late 1970s, he effectively became a master builder in the nano universe — seeking how to use molecular bonds to fashion biological structures designed with a special purpose.
