Infant formula is one of the most highly regulated food products in the world. This article describes the development of infant formula products and the methods used to quantitate their nutrient content.

Revolutionising cardiovascular care: where wearables merge with machine learning, the Internet of Things, and big data for enhanced monitoring.

With increasing awareness of the damage traditional methods of chemical synthesis can do to both chemists and the environment around us, chemists need to turn to emerging technologies for better solutions. Flow chemistry has immense potential to enable the transition to safer, greener chemical synthesis. Jie Ma and Zoe E. Wilson take a look.

Examining Azo-containing redox as an energy storage system, in the global transition towards electricaly-generated power sources.

Urine has been fundamental to several significant discoveries, including phosphorus, gunpowder and fertiliser. Modern plumbing has distanced us from this waste product but recent research has looked into uses of urine to find solutions to current environmental, food and energy crises. This article recaps historically significant substances arising from urine, and briefly discusses several recent developments on nutrient and energy recovery from wastewater and urine.

This article explores the multifaceted potential of emulsions, wherein changes in droplet shape, morphology and emulsion stability are induced by stimuli like pH, temperature, light, magnetic and electric fields. This makes them invaluable in a plethora of complex applications.

The award of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 2019 to John Goodenough, M. Stanley Whittingham and Akira Yoshino recognised their contribution to the development of the lithium-ion battery.

Chemists have long known about the switching properties of azo compounds, but recently they have started to exploit the change in shape and properties to allow them to control material properties, catalytic activity and selectivity, biomedical applications, and others.

Chemical hydrogen storage systems and ammonia borane derivatives.

Over millions of years, honeybees have mastered the art of creating their own food that can be stored for long periods of time.
