Selectivity effect of molecular chirality may have universal applications, researchers find

Matter behaves differently at various scales. At the microscopic, the behavior of molecules and their atomic constituents can shift drastically simply because the scale is so small that any change is ...

Defining the COX Inhibitor Selectivity of NSAIDs: Implications for Understanding Toxicity

BAE: Bovine aortic endothelial; RHP: Recombinant human protein. NSAIDs variably inhibit prostaglandin H synthase (COX). COX-2 was cloned in 1991, and it was subsequently established that COX-1 does ...

Plant-inspired water membrane filters CO₂ with constant selectivity and adjustable permeance

Gas separation membranes are vital for carbon capture, biogas upgrading, and hydrogen purification, all of which require the separation of carbon dioxide from gases like nitrogen, methane and hydrogen ...
