A new approach reveals unexpected ways oxygen can bind to rare metals. Iron plays a central role in how the body uses oxygen. In hemoglobin, it binds dioxygen, a pair of oxygen atoms, allowing blood ...

Iron and oxygen bind together throughout the body. Most famously, iron binds dioxygen, or two oxygens paired with each other, in hemoglobin that transports oxygen through blood. But iron-oxo compounds ...

Researchers directly observed bulk oxygen spillover in catalysts for the first time, revealing that a catalyst's interior can ...

I think about oxygen a lot more than I used to. This is because I am studying a chemical defense that turns ordinary oxygen, the same old stuff we obtain from breathing air – the same stuff that is ...

A robotic float drifting through the oxygen-starved waters of the Eastern Tropical North Pacific has recorded a nearly ...

Chemists, when they are designing or building new molecules, can be thought of as architects and builders. An organic chemist can plan a blueprint for a new molecule, and synthesize it with precision ...

Scientists have found a new way to detect subtle chemical signatures in seawater, revealing previously invisible details ...

When we think about oxygen, most of us picture green trees, sunlight, and fresh air. It feels almost obvious that sunlight is ...
