Carbon monoxide binds strongly with haemoglobin in the blood, preventing the molecule from performing its role of transporting oxygen in the body. Currently, the only available treatment for carbon ...

A new engineered molecule shows promise as an antidote for carbon monoxide poisoning with fewer side effects than other remedies currently being tested, according to research from the University of ...

University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) researchers, along with their colleagues, engineered a new molecule that appears promising as an effective antidote for carbon monoxide poisoning with ...

This month we feature chemicals that have important applications in industry and the lab.—Ed. Carbon monoxide (CO) is the simplest carbon oxide, an important industrial and laboratory chemical, and a ...

The protein reduced the time it takes to clear half of the carbon monoxide in the blood to less than a minute.

Carbon monoxide is also known as the “silent killer” because it has no odor, taste, or color. In the United States alone, it admits more than 50,000 people to emergency rooms each year and kills about ...

A scientific team using the Japanese AKARI infrared space observatory has found carbon monoxide (CO) molecules in the 10-million-degree gas associated with the young supernova remnant Cassiopeia A ...

An international team of astronomers has created the first-ever large-scale maps of a mysterious form of matter, known as ...

Researchers from the University of York in the United Kingdom created a potential new antibiotic to treat gonorrhea by harnessing the power of carbon monoxide-releasing molecules, according to a new ...

Skoltech researchers have theoretically investigated the wide range of molecules that oxygen and carbon atoms can form in addition to the well-known carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. Compounds of ...
