For the first time, researchers have reported a new family of materials that maintains its conductivity in liquid, liquid ...

A new chart for highly charged ions (HCIs) has been proposed, aiming to replicate the conventional periodic table’s ...

Researchers have identified a new physicochemical principle governing liquid–liquid phase separation in polymer solutions.

Researchers at Leipzig University and TU Dresden have succeeded in developing biological switches that can selectively turn ion channels on and off using light pulses. Initial applications show that ...

Scientists have identified the role of an ion channel that plays a key part in how cells break down and recycle components, a discovery that could open the door to new treatment strategies for ...

The nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are the most well understood membrane receptors for neurotransmitters at the structural and functional level. They are integral allosteric membrane ...
