A Northwestern University-led international team of scientists has, for the first time, directly observed catalysis in-action ...

alcohol begins to break down with the help of enzymes—namely alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase. “These enzymes break down alcohol into acetaldehyde, which is then broken down to ...

Scientists have captured the first-ever video of atoms in motion during a chemical reaction, revealing hidden pathways and ...

Among the nine products tested were alcohol-based, aldehyde-based, one peracetic acid-based, one oxygen-based and one hydrogen peroxide-based. With the exception of the two aldehyde-based products ...

A team of scientists has directly observed catalysis in-action at the atomic level. In mesmerizing new videos, single atoms move and shake during a chemical reaction that removes hydrogen atoms from ...
