ESA’s Rosetta spacecraft has made the first in situ detection of oxygen molecules outgassing from a comet, a surprising observation that suggests they were incorporated into the comet during its ...

Chemists have synthesized the first stable molecule whose chirality is solely attributed to a stereogenic oxygen, according to a new study (Nature 2023, DOI: 10.1038/s41586-023-05719-z). Though carbon ...

Researchers from a joint Skoltech and University of Sharjah laboratory and their collaborators from Paris Saclay University, France, have identified biomolecules whose levels in nerve tissue are ...

Our bodies need oxygen to survive, just like many other organisms. Oxygen molecules are used to create a molecular fuel called ATP for our cells in an organelle called the mitochondria; this process ...

A new study from the University of Helsinki reveals how plant mitochondria draw molecular oxygen away from chloroplasts, an interaction not previously documented. The discovery sheds new light on how ...
