The authors describe the preparation of chemically pure sodium and lithium peroxynitrite solutions—useful reagents for biological research—via an ion-exchange process.

Controlled evaporation of a solution of polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate) causes the incompatible polymers to self-organize into concentric rings.

The structures of chitin and its derivative chitosan are characterized by molecular dynamics simulations. The findings could aid nanomaterial design.

The authors use a robust method for the accurate measurement of very high (>95% de) diastereomeric purity by using a ¹³C–¹H NMR technique.

Wet-chemical functionalization of gallium arsenide surfaces with phosphines may be a cost-efficient route to passivating these surfaces for solar energy conversion.
