Researchers at The Australian National University (ANU) have uncovered a mechanism that helps plants continue ...

When nature performs chemical reactions to create energy-rich compounds from simple molecules, it requires energy. So far, it has not been possible to use human-made electricity to drive these ...

Researchers have discovered that nuclear spin influences biological processes, challenging long-held beliefs. They found that certain isotopes behave differently in chiral environments, affecting ...

The ocean plays a crucial role in the storage of carbon dioxide (CO2). The so-called marine biological carbon pump is an important research topic in this context. However a key component is often ...

Many biological decision-making tasks require classifying high-dimensional chemical states. The biophysical and computational mechanisms that enable classification ...

Biochemistry is the study of the chemicals and chemistry of living organisms. Biochemists study biomolecules (such as proteins, RNA, DNA, sugars, and lipids), their applications and interactions in ...

Schematic of a typical bioreactor. Key components include the reactor tank, agitation system, feeding pump, thermal jacket, submerged aerator, and sensor probes for monitoring and maintaining optimal ...

Nano-bio interfaces are crucial points of interaction between synthetic materials and biological systems at the nanoscale, facilitating the exchange of information and access to biological processes.

This might be the beginning of arterial calcifications. It is an elekron microscopy image of calcified material forming deposits. This is the first time it was possible to show a biological process ...

Going with the flow: artist’s impression of the preferential flow of water molecules containing oxygen-17 into a human cell. (Courtesy: PNAS) The effect that nuclear spins have on certain biological ...
