Cocoa beans are processed to obtain cocoa liquor and cocoa butter, two key ingredients in dark and milk chocolate. First, the beans are roasted, separated from their shells, and broken into nibs. The ...
Volumetric Karl Fischer (KF) titration is optimized for rapidly and accurately determining water content in a wide range of samples. It is based on the reaction of water with iodine, sulfur, an amine ...
pH determination and acid–base titrations are essential experiments performed by high school and university undergraduate students alike throughout their chemistry education. While these experiments ...
Marine bacteria are exposed to a range of industrial pollutants. Many of these compounds contain phosphorus, a key limiting nutrient in some marine environments. Yet it remains unknown whether ...

Testing the response of a complex biomolecular system to a range of concentrations has become a routine operation in many laboratories. For instance, in pharmacology and enzymology, measuring the dose ...
Limitations of the method should be acknowledged. The library quantification described here is based on a qPCR assay. Essentially, for all qPCR-based assays, amplification efficiency drops as the ...
Three distal imidazole pickets in a cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) model form a pocket hosting a cluster of water molecules. The cluster makes the ferrous heme low spin, and consequently the O 2 binding ...
