A new study has identified three previously unknown compounds in roasted coffee beans that may help control blood sugar in ...

Matthew Addicoat receives funding from EPSRC and the Royal Society. The universe is flooded with billions of chemicals, each a tiny pinprick of potential. And we’ve only identified 1% of them.

Host–guest chemistry is a vibrant area of supramolecular science that explores the encapsulation of smaller guest molecules within the cavities of larger host compounds, leading to the formation of ...

Scientists don’t know the limits of chemical space—the collection of all possible molecules—but a new analysis concludes chemists have discovered new compounds in that space at an exponential rate ...

Shiitake mushrooms contain bioactive compounds with antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities, making them promising for alternative therapeutic applications.

Researchers have discovered that a chemical compound found in essential oils improves the healing process in mice when it is topically applied to a skin wound. Indiana University researchers have ...
