Corrin/B12 Biochemistry: Cobalamin Reductase

It might sound like something out a sci-fi film, but the day could soon arrive when oxygen can be obtained by just a few grains of a newly developed material. Scientists in Denmark announced they have developed a substance that absorbs,...

Corrin/B12 Biochemistry: Cobalamin Adenosyltransferase

As climate change forces a shift away from oil and gas, and electric vehicles become more popular, several commodities industry leaders explain how decarbonisation affects demand for resources.

What's so difficult about making the electric vehicle a reality? One of the toughest parts is storing enough potential energy to get you where you're going, and in this case, it's all about the battery. Graduate student Katharine...

Let's take a look back at the elements nitrogen, mercury, copper, magnesium, and cobalt.

Apple is expected to announce its latest handset—the iPhone XS. Like all smartphones it will contain more than 70 chemical elements, which are mined from the Earth's crust in countries all over the world.

Corrin/B12 Biochemistry: Methylmalonyl-S-CoA Mutase Mechanism

B12 (cobalamin) is a water soluble B vitamin that requires special handling upon ingesting and subsequent absorption and transport. Here, we discuss the general pathway.

The Trans-Effect: Example 2

In this video, we learn about the element cobalt. Cobalt is known for its use in creating blue colors in various objects such as glass, porcelain, pottery, and enamels. It is also used in jewelry making, electroplating, and in the...

Transition metals all have similar and very useful physical and chemical properties. Their atoms can form ions with a variable charge which also gives them a range of colours in their compounds.

This program makes the Modern Periodic Table come alive to students. Numerous real-life examples of elements are exemplified in the table. Animations and graphics illustrate concepts not easily achieved through other instructional...
