A molecular movie has captured in detail the process of an anion transported across the cell membrane by a light-fuelled protein pump. Researchers have unravelled the mystery of how light energy ...

Chloride channels and antiport mechanisms are pivotal for maintaining cellular ion homeostasis and regulating physiological processes such as muscle contraction, epithelial fluid transport and ...

A large issue with de-icers is that they temporarily protect the ground during the winter, but then also due to the nature of their chemical solution, cause problems for the ground throughout the rest ...

Fluoride-ion and chloride-ion battery technologies have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional lithium‐ion systems, underpinned by the potential for high energy density and the utilisation ...

This release is available in German. Ions—charged atoms or molecules—play an important role in nature, in our bodies as well as for science and technology. It is often necessary to trap, remove, mask, ...
