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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers from Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, have developed a new method that allows them to visualize the contribution of the interaction between water and proteins for the first time with ...

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.
