A team of chemical engineers, inspired by the way that cells translate their own mRNA into proteins, has designed a synthetic delivery system that is four times more effective than delivering mRNA on its own.

The materiality exhibited by humanmade polymers currently relies on simple chemical bonds and the sequence order taken by molecules in the polymer chain. We now no longer need to rely on fate to determine such materiality with this new technique for precisely defining polymer-chain order. This system uses highly specific 'grabber' ends on each molecule that bond with only one type of 'pin' end on another molecule.

There is a long list of the functions that kidneys perform in our body. First of all, they are responsible for eliminating the dangerous toxins from the body. If their function is disrupted, this will lead to an accumulation of harmful toxins and chemical substances in the liver and kidneys, which in turn will cause ...]

Eleven plaintiffs, including a 4-year-old girl, have joined the $1 million lawsuit against a Houston-area chemical plant rocked by explosions after floodwaters from Hurricane Harvey inundated the facility.

We can officially add "being trapped in a coffin" to the list of irrational fears we now have thanks to American Horror Story. Why does this show insist on doing this to us? What...

A new method for analyzing a living being chemical compositions is tested in Andean plants and attest the genesis of species by means of geographic isolation. Scientists analyzed chemical compounds which express specific biogeographic trends in the evolutionary process, validating a Smithsonian hypothesis on the evolution of the genus Espeletia in the process.

Michael Dourson, who has long run a premier firm for the chemical industry, is set for a Wednesday confirmation hearing before a Senate panel.

Cell therapies being developed to treat a range of conditions could be improved by a chemical compound that aids their survival, research suggests. Lab tests found that the human-made molecule -- a type of antioxidant -- helps to shield healthy cells from damage such as would be caused when they are transplanted into a patient during cell therapy.
