NASA's Carbothermal Reduction Demonstration (CaRD) project has completed an important step toward using local resources to support human exploration on the moon. The CaRD team performed integrated ...

In a combustion reaction, fuel is burned and reacts with oxygen to release energy. Respiration is the chemical change that takes place inside living cells. Glucose and oxygen are used to release ...

A new technique, based on a chain reaction of recognition and hybridization events between two sets of DNA hairpin molecules, offers an enzyme-free alternative for the rapid detection of specific DNA ...

A biochemical reaction is the transformation of one molecule to a different molecule inside a cell. Biochemical reactions are mediated by enzymes, which are biological catalysts that can alter the ...

Thermal means heat. Decomposing is the process of breaking down. Thermal decomposition is a chemical reaction that happens when a compound breaks down when heated. When sodium hydrogencarbonate is ...

Utrecht University researchers Rodolfo Subert and Marjolein Dijkstra show in their latest study that complex three-dimensional networks in materials can emerge from nothing more than particle shape.
