Surface soil materials from the 0-to 15 cm depth of 12 sites that were suspected to contain high levels of P, as a result of years of repeated applications of either inorganic or organic P fertilizers ...

A group at the University of Texas has come up with an inventive way to create better and possibly cheaper batteries: By bonding its ingredients in a microwave. Professor Arumugam Manthiram of UT ...

Many natural compounds, such as flavonoids, stilbenoids, and curcuminoids, show promising biological activities but are poorly soluble in water. This limits their absorption in the body. One proven ...

Phosphate compounds exhibit a rich interplay between their electrical properties and crystalline structure. Recent studies utilising X‐ray diffraction (XRD) have provided detailed insights into the ...

Most calcium phosphates are classified as resorbable biomaterials. This means that under physiological conditions they will dissolve. The benefit of calcium phosphate biomaterials is that the ...

Phosphate is mainly used in the form of fertilizer for crops and animal feed supplements. Only 5 percent of world phosphate production is used for other applications, such as corrosion prevention and ...

How early trial-and-error methods gave way to modern tri-sodium phosphate programs, and why chemistry control remains ...

A new class of compounds called phosphaplatins can effectively kill ovarian, testicular, head and neck cancer cells with potentially less toxicity than conventional drugs, according to a new study in ...
