Rethinking the formation and growth of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), key contributors to harmful soot particles formed during fuel combustion and the smallest dust grains in interstellar ...

Application of multiphoton/CARS tomography for detecting early stages of chemotherapeutically induced dermal side effects. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2013 ASCO Annual Meeting I. This ...

One of the central challenges for synthetic chemists is to impose control over free radicals. Highly reactive molecules with an unpaired electron, free radicals may be familiar to you; these are the ...

A new study suggests that unrepaired DNA damage can increase the speed of aging. Every day, our bodies face a bombardment of UV rays, ozone, cigarette smoke, industrial chemicals and other hazards.

Aryl halides*1) with a benzene ring directly bonded to a halogen atom are readily available and chemically stable, so they are used as a source of benzene rings in organic synthesis. For example, a ...

Free radicals are highly unstable and reactive molecules that are literally stealing electrons from your healthy cells at this very moment, causing damage that accumulates over time and contributes to ...
