New research shows how gold helps transform plant-based ethanol into useful industrial chemicals with fewer emissions and ...

New evidence shows that drinking alcohol is the greatest risk factor for acetaldehyde-related cancer. Heavy drinkers may be at increased risk due to exposure from multiple sources. The research team ...

DESPITE ITS VALUE as a nucleophile, the simple molecule acetaldehyde has long been considered too problematic to use in enantioselective reactions catalyzed by small molecules. Now, thanks to tweaking ...

Acetaldehyde is a vital chemical used in making everything from perfumes to plastics. Today, its production largely relies on ethylene, a petrochemical. But increasing environmental concerns are ...

A new catalyst design could transform how acetaldehyde is made from renewable bioethanol. Researchers found that a carefully ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nutrients, researchers in the Republic of Korea evaluated the effects of glutathione (GSH) on alcohol metabolism and hangover relief by reducing serum ...

When a person drinks alcohol, two different enzymes in the liver break it down, first into acetaldehyde and then into acetate. People with a shortage of the second enzyme, aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 ...
