Exposure to volatile organic compounds found to be important in the cause of childhood asthmaThe role of indoor air quality in the aetiology of asthma has again come under scrutiny in a case-control study from Perth, Western Australia. Children who had received emergency treatment for asthma were...
Vitamins are organic compounds necessary in small amounts in the diet for the normal growth and maintenance of life of animals, including man.They do not provide energy, 1 do they construct or build any part of the body. They are needed for 2 foods into energy and body maintenance...

Low on volatile organic compounds:Volatile organic compounds, commonly shortened to VOCs, are present in new mattresses. VOCs break down at room temperature and dissipate over time, but until they’re gone your mattress may have a chemical smell to it. In rare cases, a sleeper might experience...
compounds may be by-products of the primary fungal metabolism32,33and do not exhibit high species or fungal guild specificity, they may still—alone or in mixtures—have important functions in fungal interactions34. Considering larger, semi-volatile compounds, the sesquiterpene, (-)-thujopsene ...

Chemists like to build new compounds by putting lots of molecules and substances together and creating a new reaction to give new compounds. Physicists like to break atoms apart by colliding them together to expose subatomic matter. Nanotechnologists like to build new and very, very small materials...
Dissolved organic matter refers to organic compounds found in water bodies, playing crucial roles in global cycles, environmental processes, and biodiversity. It contains a vast array of diverse molecules that hold valuable information about aquatic ecosystems. AI generated definition based on: Progress ...
Volatile organic compounds such as benzene are toxic pollutants that cause health issues even at trace concentrations. Here, a double-walled metal–organic framework is presented that demonstrates high uptake at very low pressures (<10 Pa), allowing the removal of benzene to below acceptable indoo...
