The water-soluble molecules that are the subject of this technology are transition metal complexed porphyrins. These molecules are selectively uptaken in pathogenic bacteria, whereby the molecule ...

Researchers have developed a new material that could help to remove unwanted pollutants — including leftover medicines and ...

Ubiquinone is water-insoluble and does not move between membranes without protein transporters. The molecules used in the study are more soluble, can transfer and accumulate, are better absorbed ...

high surface tension relatively high viscosity All ionic lattices and polar covalent molecules are: soluble in water and other polar solvents insoluble in non-polar solutions (eg hexane ...

The interior of a cell is an aqueous environment, so, not surprisingly, most of the molecules that are important to the cell's operation are water-soluble. The first question, then, is ...

Now, scientists at Manchester University have developed a new method to clean up water using metal-organic cages (MOC) that ...

It uses a natural effect called hydrophobic binding, where contaminant molecules preferentially "stick" to the ... The approach we have developed could be used to design other water-soluble MOCs with ...
