The effects of ions on the structure of water have been studied for many years. The author presents a general classification scheme—from “structure breakers” to “structure makers”.

The interaction of the dye Brilliant Blue FCF with a poly(allylamine)–synthetic fluoromica nanocomposite varies in the high-pH range (9.5–12.0), giving a color-range of solids.

When apple pectin was fed to lab rats for 6 weeks, the animals’ absorption of the beneficial flavonoid quercetin was significantly higher than in the control group.

2008 was a very good year for chemists, who enjoyed higher salaries and lower unemployment.

This switch in the G65R mutation in the N-lobe of human transferrin disrupts hydrogen binding and facilitates iron removal, permitting investigation of the mutant forms.

A molecular simulation study of the self-assembly of amphiphilic ditethered nanospheres predicts the formation of four highly ordered phases not previously reported for nanoparticle systems.
