Carbon monoxide is a quiet assassin. Odorless and colorless, it has a uniquely efficient ability to starve the body of oxygen ...

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 ...

Mice treated with the protein, which is found in bacteria, quickly eliminated carbon monoxide from their body in their pee.

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 ...

Using the ARO 12-m telescope, astronomers have investigated a young starless core known as Lynds 1521E (or L1521E). The study resulted in the detection of complex organic molecules in this object. The ...

First accurate measurement of the temperature of the cosmic background at an early epoch Astronomers have made use of ESO’s Very Large Telescope to detect for the first time in the ultraviolet the ...

Scientists have engineered a molecule that shows promise as the world’s first fast-acting antidote for carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide is the leading cause of accidental poisoning, ...
