Ethanol -- the compound found in alcoholic beverages -- interferes with the normal functioning of a long list of biological molecules, but how each of these interactions contributes to the behavioral ...

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 ...

Researchers in the UK and Canada have succeeded in creating the world's first text message via a molecular communication. The messages are encoded in molecules of alcohol, which are then wafted across ...

Ethanol-water mixtures determine the critical alcohol content of beverages. By employing molecular dynamics simulations and high-frequency proton nuclear magnetic resonance, they could identify ...

This is not the kind of alcohol you can ask for in a cocktail: it's a highly unstable molecule made up of four hydroxyl groups (OH) at a single carbon atom. Its existence was first predicted more than ...
