Foods which contain edible oils will spoil once exposed to oxygen from the air due to oxidation reactions. This chemical change results in a bad flavour and smell from the food. If left exposed to ...

During beta-oxidation, fatty acid molecules are broken down by removing two-carbon units from the carboxyl end of a fatty acid molecule to produce acetyl-CoA.

Carbon particles are present in many aspects of our daily lives. Soot, which consists of tiny carbon particles, is generated ...

In this reaction, carbon is oxidised because it gains oxygen. At the same time, copper oxide is reduced because oxygen is removed from it.

Unraveling the chemical processes in soot particle filters reveals new ways to produce synthetic fuels.

Gordon Ramsay took to YouTube to share his best cooking tips, including one to prevent oxidation. He said: “A great tip for ...

Using a computer algorithm for automatic generation of reduced chemistry, an augmented reduced mechanism, consisting of 16 species and 12 lumped reaction steps, has been developed for methane ...

Optically pure alcohols are prevalent motifs in natural products and pharmaceuticals, driving the development of effective ...

This review summarizes the catalytic performance of various metal-based catalysts in the CO2-assisted oxidative dehydrogenation of light alkanes, with the goal of identifying catalyst systems that ...
