High concentrations of carbonyls are produced when indoor ozone reacts with skin oils. Researchers correlated the molecules ...

Researchers at the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2) have developed a pioneering method for obtaining various types of organic molecule through a process of molecular 'cutting ...

The 8-billion human population on this planet produces 700,000 m 3 wastewater per minute, most of which is treated, usually with a bacterial process, to lower environmental impact. Synthetic ...

At home, school, and work, our bodies encounter a host of volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, given off by furniture, carpet, or paint. But people also emanate VOCs in appreciable amounts, ...

The ozonolysis reaction is a classic of organic synthesis, but involves the formation of potentially explosive reaction intermediates. A modern, safer spin on this process makes use of previously ...

Chemists Young-Jin Lee and Paige Hinners may have found a way to determine when a fingerprint was left behind. Credit: Christopher Gannon/Iowa State University Fingerprints are telling us more and ...

Ozonolysis of isoprene, one of the most abundant volatile organic compounds in the earth’s atmosphere, generates the four-carbon unsaturated methacrolein oxide (MACR-oxide) Criegee intermediate. The ...
