Chemical elements in our environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Humans are intimately linked to the Earth’s surface environment; we are fundamentally dependent on it, yet we are responsible for many aspects of environmental change.

Production of Hydroxyl Radicals in the Dark [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Oxidation is prevalent in atmospheric chemistry due to the abundance of oxidants in the atmosphere. One of the commonly found oxidants is hydroxyl (OH) radical.

Social context prevents heat hormetic effects against mutagens during fish development

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study shows that sublethal heat stress protects fish embryos against ultraviolet radiation, a concept known as ‘hormesis’. However, chemical stress transmission between fish embryos negates this protective effect. By providing evidence for the mechanistic molecular basis of heat stress hormesis and interindividual stress communication, this study ...

Convolutional neural network prediction of molecular properties for aerosol chemistry and health effects

open access: yesNatural Sciences, 2022
Quinones are chemical compounds commonly found in air particulate matter (PM). Their redox activity can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and contribute to the oxidative potential (OP) of PM leading to adverse health effects of aerosols.

Genome-inspired molecular identification in organic matter via Raman spectroscopy

open access: yes, 2016
Rapid, non-destructive characterization of molecular level chemistry for organic matter (OM) is experimentally challenging. Raman spectroscopy is one of the most widely used techniques for non-destructive chemical characterization, although it currently ...

Interaction vesicles as emerging mediators of host‐pathogen molecular crosstalk and their implications for infection dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...

Carbon Dioxide, a Solvent and Synthon for Green Chemistry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Carbon dioxide is a renewable resource of carbon when we consider the reuse of existing CO2 as a carbon source for producing chemicals. The development of new applications is of major interest from the point of view of carbon dioxide sequestration and ...
