In a new study published in Global Change Biology, Prof. Zhang Yuanming's team from the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has unveiled a previously ...
Residents in some areas of the developing world are currently coping with dangerous levels of air pollution. Recent research, co-led by the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National ...
According to a study published in Water Research in April 2020, superoxide produces hydroxyl radicals in lake water. Hydroxyl radicals break down poorly biodegradable organic matter such as humic ...
Scott F. Singleton, an associate professor of medicinal chemistry and natural products at the University of North Carolina School of Pharmacy, calls the results "wonderfully unexpected, but in a way ...
How the radical scavenger TEMPO traps a hydroxyl radical OH·. The proton of the hydroxyl radical reacts with TEMPO first. Colour coding: grey for C (carbon), white for H (hydrogen), red for O (oxygen) ...
The reactive hydroxyl radical, which helps sop up pollutant molecules in Earth’s atmosphere, has now also been found in the hellish atmosphere of Venus. The discovery promises to help scientists ...
Scientists have found that lightning bolts and, surprisingly, subvisible discharges that cannot be seen by cameras or the naked eye produce extreme amounts of the hydroxyl radical and hydroperoxyl ...
The hydroxyl radical (•OH) is among the most reactive species in water, playing a pivotal role in atmospheric chemistry, environmental remediation and biological damage. Generated chiefly by ...
Researchers at Aarhus University have shown that intense ultraviolet light alone can break apart per- and polyfluoroalkyl ...
IT is well known that when dyed cellulose fabrics are printed with pastes containing the reducing agent sodium sulphoxylate formaldehyde, and steamed, in order to produce a white design on a coloured ...
Astronomers have detected a new chemical signature in the atmosphere of an extrasolar planet (a planet that orbits a star other than our Sun). The hydroxyl radical (OH) was found on the dayside of the ...
