Not to be outdone, Berkeley chemists have now captured a series of images showing molecules as they break and reform their chemical bonds. It looks almost… textbook.

Interested in viewing molecular structures from different angles? Part of a Web site devoted to crystallography research, these pages provide colorful, interactive images of common, biologically ...

Physicists at the DoE's Berkeley Lab in California have captured the first ever high-resolution images of a molecule as it makes and breaks chemical bonds to form different molecules. As you can ...

Researchers at the ICN2 and the UAB have developed a novel strategy to obtain different types of organic molecules by ...

Scientists have demonstrated for the first time the ability to rapidly, reliably and simultaneously identify the 'handedness' of different molecules in a mixture.

"Two molecules that have the same structure and composition but are mirror images of each other can produce very different biological responses.

Different chemical bonds in hexabenzocoronene revealed for the first time Sharing more leads to tighter bonds – even in the world of molecules. The most detailed images yet made of the chemical ...

By finding a geometrical transformation between two high-resolution AFM images acquired with two different tips, the electrostatic force field or potential over individual molecules and self ...

The team will also explore the use of different molecules for their "record needle", with the hope of yielding even more insight into the molecular world.

Scientists have identified one of the largest carbon-based molecules in space yet. It could help us decode the origins of life as we know it.

Aaron Klug, who won the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1982 for devising ways to create three-dimensional images of biological molecules like proteins and DNA, died Nov. 20. He was 92.
