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 ...

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

Gold is helping scientists turn plant-based ethanol into valuable industrial chemicals by keeping a delicate reaction under ...

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

We have previously shown that acetaldehyde, a constituent of tobacco smoke, increases nicotine self-administration in adolescent, but not adult, rats. The aim of this study was to determine whether ...

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 ...

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 ...

A San Francisco startup is using genetically engineered bacteria to combat a familiar problem: "that toxic death feeling" ...

As the years go by, it gets harder to shake off the head-and-stomach-achey aftereffects of a night of drinking. Hangovers seem to get worse as we get older — and it’s not your imagination. It is, ...
