Superconductors have long been considered a promising technology for the energy systems of the future. They can conduct ...

A team led by Dr. Ha Yoon-Cheol, a Principal Researcher of Next Generation Battery Research Center at the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) and Dr. Cheol-Min Park, a Professor of ...

Scientists used muons to show how pressure makes tantalum disulfide superconduct in 3D at three times higher temperatures.

Cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDCs) are a large family of secreted bacterial pore-forming toxins that specifically bind cholesterol-containing mammalian membranes 1. Although the pore size ...

A team of scientists from the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, has recently demonstrated that chemical agents capable of reducing disulfide (S-S) bonds can be potentially used as antiviral drugs ...

Nanoparticle research has gained momentum in the recent years by virtue of the unexpected outcomes that are possible by altering the atomic and molecular properties of basic elements. This article ...

Beneath the microscope, tungsten disulfide transforms from a dull gray powder into a landscape of geometric perfection — atom-thin layers stacked like crystalline armor built by nature itself. Roberts ...

When biochemists want to break disulfide bonds within or between molecules, they add dithiothreitol to their buffer solutions. Now researchers describe an easy-to-make alternative to the small ...

Researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus report that they have broken up deadly mucus secretions in the lungs, which can be fatal for asthma patients, at the molecular level ...
