The energy it stores (?180 Wh kg?1) at an average voltage of 3.8 V is only a factor of 5 higher than that stored by the much older lead -- acid batteries. This may seem poor in the light of Moore's law in electronics (according to which memory capac Continue Reading...
Evolution of Chemistry to the Periodic Table of the Elements
One of the differences between scientists of the 17th and 18th centuries vs. scientists today is that the chemists of times past were often theologians. They studied chemistry and other fo Continue Reading...
For obese individuals on the Atkins diet, a moderate exercise program that allows the body to burn fat rather than glycogen can be beneficial, since they would be able to exercise longer. For trained athletes, a higher level of exercise at a longer Continue Reading...

Acid Denaturation of Catalase
The enzyme catalase is an integral component of endogenous antioxidant defenses in both plants (Blokhina, Virolainen, and Fagerstedt, 2003) and animals (Hermes-Lima and Zeneno-Savin, 2002). These defenses are required t Continue Reading...
The oxygen attaches to the blood cells and this is the means by which oxygenated blood returns to the body.
We are investigating the lower lobe of the right lung. This part of the lung is generally free from bacteria and that is the case here; our Continue Reading...
Anemia is defined as a condition in which the body does not have enough healthy red blood cells in order for oxygen to be carried to tissues (Mayo Clinic, 2010). Red blood cells are shaped like discs and resemble doughnuts without holes in the middle Continue Reading...
