Neurodegenerative Diseases-Suitable Temperature-Fried Food Risks-Dynamic Behavior

Fried food risks: Toxic aldehydes detected in reheated oil

Researchers have been the first to discover the presence of certain aldehydes in food, which are believed to be related to some neurodegenerative diseases and some types of cancer. These toxic compounds can be found in some oils, such as sunflower oil, when heated at a suitable temperature for frying. read more..


Observing single atoms during relaxation toward equilibrium

Scientists have succeeded for the first time in simulating the dynamic behavior of strongly correlated individual atoms in solids. They were able to string atoms in so-called optical lattices and observe their dynamic behavior, which is determined by complex interactions with other atoms. read more..
