A molecular movie has captured in detail the process of an anion transported across the cell membrane by a light-fuelled protein pump. Researchers have unravelled the mystery of how light energy ...

A Wisconsin Department of Transporation (WisDOT) study noted that PoreShield, a concrete durability enhancer technology, demonstrated long-term protection from chloride ion diffusion in pavement.

A large issue with de-icers is that they temporarily protect the ground during the winter, but then also due to the nature of their chemical solution, cause problems for the ground throughout the rest ...

Chloride channels and antiport mechanisms are pivotal for maintaining cellular ion homeostasis and regulating physiological processes such as muscle contraction, epithelial fluid transport and ...

In the cells of the Arabidopsis plant, exposure to sodium chloride (NaCl) induces the movement (translocation) of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) tagged chloride channel, GFP-AtCLCf, from the ...

The human body is a dynamic place. Blood pumps, spinal fluid flows, oxygen comes in and carbon dioxide goes out. Deeper still, charged molecules pass through cell walls, quietly keeping the body's ...

Fluoride-ion and chloride-ion battery technologies have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional lithium‐ion systems, underpinned by the potential for high energy density and the utilisation ...

Lithium-ion batteries are typically installed for use in portable electronic devices and electric vehicles (EVs). They are a popular choice due to their high energy density as they are both powerful ...

Many bacteria and unicellular algae have light-driven pumps in their cell membranes: proteins that change shape when exposed to photons such that they can transport charged atoms in or out of the cell ...
