In nanoscale particle research, precise control and separation have long been a bottleneck in biotechnology. Researchers at the University of Oulu have now developed a new method that improves ...

The separation process can be conducted using various instruments, but the most fitting method depends on the mixture’s properties. This article covers the importance of solid-liquid separation in the ...

Oxidation of the sulfur atom in methionine is an important biomolecular reaction that can have a wide range of biological consequences depending on the context and the protein involved. Chemists have ...

The preceding chapters gave an overview of the many advances in chemical separations and other fields that have emerged in the last 3 decades. Despite the advances, critical challenges remain for the ...

A new method improves the extraction and separation of rare earth elements—a group of 17 elements critical for technologies such as smart phones and electric car batteries—from unconventional sources.

Separation processes are essential elements of the technological foundations of the seven IOF industries included in this report. For the chemical and petroleum refining industries, separation ...

Hydrogen isotopes—protium (¹H), deuterium (²H or D) and tritium (³H or T)—play a pivotal role in fields ranging from nuclear energy and fusion research to environmental monitoring and pharmaceutical ...

Blood separation is the dividing of whole blood into its various components. Whole blood is often isolated for therapeutic and diagnostic reasons, including research. For this to be achieved, ...

Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids, and most proteins have one or more of the sulfur-containing amino acid methionine. Oxidation of the sulfur atom in methionine is an important ...
