It is difficult to convert carbon dioxide or nitrogen oxides into useful or harmless substances. Wolfgang Schuhmann wants to find a way and is being…
EMBO Journal: Neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington’s or Parkinson’s disease are associated with misfolded and aggregated proteins.…
Thanks to their antibacterial properties, the particles are used in many products. Their effect on the environment is largely unexplored. This is…
Science: Photosynthetic complex I is a key element in photosynthetic electron transport, but little has been known about it so far.
Phys. Rev. Lett.: Certain molecules with fluorine, chlorine or bromine, together with water, can release harmful substances into the atmosphere.
Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: The new system to produce aromatic nitrogen compounds could make the manufacture of medicines and pesticides more efficient.
Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: The solvation process is of fundamental importance for chemistry – but is very difficult to observe.
Nat. Comm.: Bochum researchers have combined two concepts that make the system as efficient as precious metal catalysts.
JACS: In catalysis, nature is sometimes more efficient than artificial systems. Researchers have copied one of the tricks.
Adv. Energy Mater.: Affordable high-performance catalysts have come within reach.
Chemical molecules that behave like images and mirror images interact differently with other molecules. A new project is set to reveal more about…
Structure: Some molecules change their spatial structure when exposed to light – in other words, they look different in light and darkness. What…
The Electrochemical Society honours the diverse work of the Bochum-based scientist in applied and basic research.
Cell Death Differ.: The protein Bax is responsible for programmed cell death. Because it is constantly changing its location, its structure has so far…
Nat. Energy: The semi-artificial system is constructed like a Lego box – which opens up a wide range of applications for the future.
Chem. Sci.: Researchers use a trick to prevent a ring from forming when droplets dry. This has far-reaching consequences.
Nat. Comm.: The mechanism protects sensitive enzymes from oxygen. It obtains its energy from sugar. Together with hydrogen, it can also drive an…
Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: The findings could help save carbon dioxide in the future.
Nat. Rev. Chem.: In nature, enzymes are mostly made of proteins. This might change in a not too distant future, according to a review article…
Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: Seemingly simple questions about the hydration shell of charged particles remained unanswered for a long time. Until this new…
