The sodium-air cell also produces sodium hydroxide as a chemical by-product, which could be used to absorb CO2 from the atmosphere or turned into sodium bicarbonate for ocean-based carbon removal.

How to get chloride ions into the cell A molecular movie reveals the mechanism of a light-driven chloride pump Date: February 3, 2022 Source: Paul Scherrer Institute ...

Sodium chloride nanoparticles – more commonly known as salt – are toxic to cancer cells and offer the potential for therapies that have fewer negative side effects than current treatments.

A new type of fuel cell that runs on sodium metal could one day help clean up sectors where it’s difficult to replace fossil fuels, like rail, regional aviation, and short-distance shipping.

Sodium chloride is essential for life, but in the wrong place, it can cause cell death. To control this, ion channels on the plasma membranes that surround our cells prevent salt from entering.

Effects of inhibitors, osmolarity and chloride concentration on angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 phosphorylation ...

U.S. and European startups are racing to develop new batteries using two abundant, cheap materials — sodium and sulfur — that could reduce China's battery dominance, ease looming supply ...
