Thanks to their antibacterial properties, the particles are used in many products. Their effect on the environment is largely unexplored. This is mainly due to the lack of suitable analytical methods.

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 certain 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.: Researchers have combined two concepts that make the system as efficient as precious metal catalysts.

Nat. Commun.: New findings pave the way for chemical reproduction of hydrogen-producing enzymes.

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 their differences.
