The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recently added segments of five rivers near large Iowa cities including Cedar Rapids to the state's impaired waters list for nitrate — over the repeated ...

Scientists have made an advancement in the field of electrocatalysis. Their latest research, published in the journal Nature Materials, sheds light on how catalysts can stay in unanticipated forms ...

Skimmed milk has a little more calcium than semi-skimmed, which in turn has a little more calcium than whole milk. The reason is simply that as the fat is removed, the watery proportion of the ...

CERESCO, Neb. (KLKN) – A study released Thursday by the Nebraska Department of Environment and Energy found high levels of nitrate in groundwater. Nitrate is a naturally occurring compound ...

We analyze the temperature dependence of the Raman intensity using the experimental data according to a power-law formula close to the order-disorder transition (Tc = 549 K) in NaNO 3. From this ...

Increasing levels of nitrate in Ontario’s watersheds including the Grand River is a serious issue for the entire province, says Mayor Kevin Davis. But the mayor is optimistic that solutions can be ...

Calcium benefits the body by supporting bone health and possibly reducing the risk of colon cancer. Calcium may also help improve blood pressure and boost better weight control. Adequate calcium is ...

An optical spectroscopic technique, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), mostly used in the research setting for liquid sample analysis, has recently been applied to breath-based diagnostics.
