Researchers develop a hydrogel that melts into and preserves ancient waterlogged wooden artifacts, like this piece of wood from an 800-year-old shipwreck 🚢. Details in @ACSSustainable: acs.org/pressroom/pres…

Leave it to a middle schooler to bring a sample of goose poop to science class. 💩 But this class was a biomedical research program sponsored by a local university, and that poop contained a brand-new compound. Read more in @ACS_Omega: acs.org/pressroom/pres…

When prompted to create portraits of “chemists,” AI doesn’t get it quite right: The diversity of the U.S. chemistry enterprise is missing. See more AI-generated images in the @ACSDivCHED #JChemEd study: acs.org/pressroom/pres…

An innovative antimicrobial compound that could target drug-resistant pathogens like E. coli inhibited several bacterial infections in animal trials. The study was published in @ACSBioMed during #WAAW 2024: acs.org/pressroom/pres… #AMR #AntimicrobialResistance

Researchers publishing in @ACSCentSci are working to create safer X-rays. By increasing the sensitivity of the X-ray detector using specially engineered crystals, the team reduced the dosage of X-rays in a scan while still producing a high-quality image.

A puff of air rather than a needle? In the future, people could inhale their mRNA medicines. @Dr_S_Lathwal @AllenYJiang and @MITChemE @kochinstitute colleagues share in @J_A_C_S the steps they’ve taken toward making this a possibility: brnw.ch/21wOKiQ

✨Work presented at #ACSFall2024 has an update! Researchers observed that fabric treated with a chalk-based coating cools ambient air up to 6 degrees F in a variety of urban environments. The expanded results are in @ACS_AMI: acs.org/pressroom/pres…

November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month, and exhaled breath could contain clues that may provide diagnoses. These nanoflakes show promise for detecting lung cancer by sensing a difference in breath chemistry in people with lung cancer. @ACS_Sensors: acs.org/pressroom/pres…
