Researchers have developed a sponge-like material with long, microscopic air pockets that uses sunlight and a simple plastic ...

Researchers in ACS’ Analytical Chemistry report the initial development of a system that inexpensively screens for Parkinson’s disease from the odors in a person’s ear wax.

Lead contamination in municipal water sources is a consistent threat to public health. Ingesting even tiny amounts of lead can harm the human brain and nervous system — especially in young children.

Infamous for their environmental persistence and potential links to health conditions, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), often called forever chemicals, are being discovered in unexpected ...

Researchers report in ACS Omega that okra and/or fenugreek extracts attracted and removed up to 90% of microplastics in ocean water, freshwater and groundwater.

Researchers in ACS’ Nano Letters gave tardigrades tiny “tattoos” to test a microfabrication technique to build microscopic, biocompatible devices.

Researchers reporting in ACS Central Science have generated electricity from rain-like droplets moving through a tube.

Wear and tear on plastic products releases small to nearly invisible plastic particles, which could impact people’s health when consumed or inhaled. To make these particles biodegradable, researchers ...
