It has been known for several years that sulfuric acid contributes to the formation of tiny aerosol particles, which play an important role in the formation of clouds. A new study shows that ...

A new mechanism was discovered in a study published in the journal Nature, which suggests that nitric acid, sulphuric acid and ammonia can together form aerosol particles and ice nuclei much more ...

A team led by Brent Wagner, MD, a professor in the University of New Mexico's School of Medicine Department of Internal Medicine, conducted a study published in the journal Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Researchers at the universities of Amsterdam and Utrecht have observed the formation of nanocavities in montmorillonite clay under exposure to gamma-aminobutyric acid, a molecule commonly found on ...

Scientists have identified a novel driver of new aerosol particle formation in the Arctic during the summer to fall transition. The authors show that iodic acid is important for forming new particles ...

Uric acid is formed by the action of xanthine oxidase on xanthine and hypoxanthine; when xanthine oxidase activity is partially inhibited, as by allopurinol, less ...

Cancer cells release a significantly more concentrated level of acid than previously known, forming an “acid wall” that could deter immune cells from attacking tumors, UT Southwestern Medical Center ...
