Heavy metals in drinking waterAccess to safe drinking water is still a major challenge in many parts of the world. Among the different contaminants that can affect water quality, heavy metals remain one of the most concerning. Elements such as arsenic, lead, cadmium, chromium, mercury, nickel and co...

Microplastic removal from water: conventional and advanced methodsMicroplastics in water have become an important environmental challenge. These plastic particles, generally smaller than 5 mm, can enter rivers, lakes, seawater, and wastewater from several sources. These include synthetic textiles, t...

Environmental pollution remains a major challenge for water, soil and air quality. Industrial effluents, heavy metals, dyes, pesticides and gaseous pollutants can persist in the environment and affect ecosystems, agriculture and human health. Conventional remediation methods are often slow, expensiv...

CymitQuimica has expanded its chromatography portfolio with a new range of ion-pair chromatography reagents from SRL, designed to improve the analysis of ionic and highly polar compounds in reversed-phase HPLC.Highly polar or charged analytes can be difficult to retain using conventional reversed-ph...

Mineral carbonation captures and stores carbon dioxide by converting it into stable carbonates. This process mimics natural mineral reactions, where CO2 reacts with calcium or magnesium containing minerals over long time periods to produce stable compounds such as calcite (CaCO3) or magnesite (MgCO3...

As the demand for energy storage grows, researchers are exploring alternatives to lithium-ion batteries. One of the most relevant emerging options is the sodium-ion battery. It operates through a similar principle, moving sodium ions between the cathode and the anode during charge and discharge. The...

Standalix Impurity and DNPH Standards for Pharmaceutical Quality ControlStandalix is a specialized brand in impurity and nitrosamine reference standards for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).In recent years, nitrosamine impurities have been closely studied due to their potential carcinogenic ...

Cultivated meat: producing animal protein from cellsCultivated meat is produced by growing animal cells in a controlled laboratory environment. A small sample of animal cells is taken and expanded in bioreactors. These cells are supplied with required nutrients, growth factors, and oxygen. Over time...

Catalysts are essential for accelerating chemical reactions without altering the reaction itself. However, many traditional catalysts depend on rare metals or generate unwanted waste. Hence, eco-friendly alternatives are required, such as green catalysts.What makes these green catalysts special?Rece...

Energy storage is often associated with batteries and electricity. However, many industrial processes and buildings need energy in the form of heat.Among thermal energy storage technologies, thermochemical energy storage (TCES) stands out due to its unique properties. It operates over a wide tempera...

Chinese researcher Tu Youyou demonstrated that tradition can coexist with the scientific method. She started from ancient medical references and subjected them to modern experiments until isolating artemisinin from Artemisia annua. This breakthrough, later optimized through derivatives and combined ...

Double Nobel Prize — Physics (1903) and Chemistry (1911)Discoverer of polonium and radium · Coined the term “radioactivity”Few scientific figures have defined an era. Marie Skłodowska-Curie did. With extraordinary patience and rigor, she turned a physical curiosity into a new field of knowledge: rad...

Richard Robson, Susumu Kitagawa and Omar Yaghi were awarded with 11 million Swedish kronor, for their new discoveries in the field of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).MOFs (metal-organic frameworks) are giant molecular constructions that connect metal ions with organic molecules. The result is a thre...

Nigerian scientist Francisca Nneka Okeke is one of the leading figures in geomagnetism and ionospheric physics. A professor at the University of Nigeria (Nsukka), she has researched how electric currents vary in the upper atmosphere and how they relate to the Earth’s magnetic field and climate param...

In analytical chemistry, the accuracy and reliability of your results depend directly on the purity of your solvents. Whether running an NMR experiment, developing a pharmaceutical method by HPLC, or quantifying trace impurities via LC–MS, solvents are the foundation of dependable data.That’s why Ap...

Shinya Yamanaka (Osaka, 1962) forever changed biomedicine by demonstrating that an adult cell can “go back in time” and regain a state similar to that of an embryonic cell. His discovery — the induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) — opened a powerful and more ethical path to study diseases, test drug...

Gerty Theresa Cori was the first woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (1947). Born in Prague and trained as a physician, she emigrated to the United States in 1922. At Washington University in St. Louis, she built a career marked by rigor and perseverance, despite nepotism rule...

Water quality is one of the most urgent issues of the 21st century. Beyond traditional pollutants, more and more microcontaminants are being detected: compounds present in minuscule amounts, at nanograms per liter, which can have significant effects on health and the environment.These emerging conta...
