MIT physicist 'Riccardo Comin' successfully mapped an electron’s shape in motion, unlocking breakthroughs in quantum physics, superconductors, and quantum computing.

Subsequent clinical studies clearly demonstrated that either carboxylic or sulfonic cation-exchange resins could bind both sodium and potassium ions in the gastrointestinal tract for excretion in ...

The movement of ions changes the voltage of the cell, which activates a nerve impulse. A drop in potassium levels can affect your body’s ability to generate a nerve impulse.

THE clinical application of cation-exchange resins provides a new means of controlling the sodium content of the body. Several reports on their uses and limitations in edematous states have been ...

Since it has 1 more proton than electrons, sodium has a charge of +1, making it a positive ion. Chlorine gains an electron, leaving it with 17 protons and 18 electrons. Since it has 1 more electron ...

There are several known decay modes for potassium-40, but a predicted electron-capture decay directly to the ground state of argon-40 has never been observed, until now. “Some nuclei of certain ...

Now, researchers report the synthesis and characterization of the world’s first all-metal fullerene. The molecule – a potassium–gold–antimony anion with the formula [K@Au12Sb20]5-– was prepared by ...

Upon binding to calcium ions, BK channels allow the selective transport of potassium ions across cell membranes through a large pore within the protein structure. This process regulates potassium ion ...

Qatari researchers have incorporated an electron transport layer (ETL) made of tin (IV) oxide into a perovskite solar cell through air-thermal-annealing, resulting in better efficiency and ...
