That’s why I was intrigued by a project at Harvard’s School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS) detailing some work in ...

Obesity is a physiological condition of chronic positive energy balance. While the regulation of energy metabolism varies widely among individuals, identifying those who are metabolically prone to ...

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a technique which involves the sensitive measurement of the difference in the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of an analyte and that of a ...

Like someone who finally sits after a long, tiring day of standing, gas-phase molecules breathe a sigh of relief, so to speak, as they “take a seat” (adsorb) on solid surfaces. The sigh comes in the ...

Around five decades ago, Christian Anfinsen carried out advanced experiments which clearly showed that the linear string of amino acids in a protein encodes all the information for its 3D structure.

Users can use simple equipment to measure enthalpy, a term often associated with physicists but significantly relevant to daily life. Heat transfer plays a pivotal role in all these processes, and ...

Calorimetry measures the amount of heat released or absorbed during a chemical reaction. It is a beneficial and powerful tool that accurately evaluates chemical processes, helps researchers assess ...
