Researchers have found a way to make copper-catalyzed click chemistry biocompatible. By adding a ligand that minimizes the toxicity of copper but still allows it to catalyze the click chemistry ...

COLUMBIA, S.C. — This experiment is a chemistry experiment that involves a reaction between copper and oxygen, also know as an oxidation reaction. To do this experiment, you will need: pennies a sheet ...

Composite copper–lanthanum and copper–yttrium oxides developed by researchers from Japan demonstrate exceptionally high antiviral activity against non-enveloped virus. These oxides are highly stable ...

Copper-free click chemistry has presented intriguing opportunities for the development of clickable drug surrogates, particularly in the context of fluorescent imaging of target of interest (TOI) ...

Copper is not new to medicine, having been used in infection-fighting nanoparticles and implants, among many other innovations. However, it hasn’t quite been used in the way some chemists from the ...

New research shows how gold helps transform plant-based ethanol into useful industrial chemicals with fewer emissions and ...

Over the last decade, cysteine thiolate ligands have been shown to be critical to the Cu(I) (cuprous) binding chemistry of many cytosolic metallochaperone and metalloregulatory proteins involved in ...

The reduction of nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas, is a critical reaction in both environmental chemistry and the biological nitrogen cycle. Central to this process is nitrous oxide reductase ...
