This week is all about scalp health. Your itchy, flaky scalp might not be dandruff, and using the wrong treatment could make it worse. In this episode of Beauty by the Beaker, cosmetic chemists Sadie and Natalie explain the difference between dry scalp, dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis, plus how to choose a smarter next step.Learn how scalp oil, aka sebum, and the yeast Malassezia are connected to dandruff and why itching can start before flakes appear. Not all scalp issues are

It's Nobel season again! And we're doing something a little different here on The chemical breakdown. Instead of our usual stories, in this episode we are turning the microphone to speculation and discussing who we think will be taking home the chemistry Nobel prize this year with Jamie Durrani and Neil Withers. Each year the Nobel prize is awarded across six categories, including physiology/medicine, physics, literature, peace, economic sciences, and chemistry. This year the announcement of the

Este episodio se inspira en el trabajo de tesis del director de investigación de Zschimmer & Schwarz Ceramco. El objetivo no es centrarse en el tema específico explorado en dicho estudio (en este caso, el conocido problema del «corazón negro»), sino más bien destacar la metodología de investigación y el trabajo meticuloso y exhaustivo que se lleva a cabo a diario en los laboratorios de las empresas químicas que prestan servicio a la industria cerámica.Aunque parte de un contexto académico, el

Could a spoonful of tomato paste deliver more usable lycopene than a fresh tomato? It sounds counterintuitive, but how you prepare a food can change how much of its nutrients your body absorbs.In Episode 32 of Molecules Matter with Dr. Dan, we explore lycopene—the pigment that gives tomatoes their red color—and unpack the research connecting it to heart health, prostate health, and more. From its antioxidant chemistry to the benefits and limitations seen in human studies, this episode separates

Last week, Scott Brown led the ZwitterCo team at the International Whey Conference (IWC) in Chicago, while Jon Goodman joined from Europe to hear the highlights. Protein remained the main topic at the conference, but conversations are shifting to include dairy fat, with WPC80 becoming more popular relative to WPI. Jon and Scott also discuss rising lactose and permeate prices and what attendees are saying about GLP-1 demand in the U.S. and Europe. What You'll Learn: Why dairy fat is becoming part of

Two years after the BioLab fire in Conyers, Georgia, we return to a question that has followed this investigation from the beginning: what were people actually exposed to? You’ll hear why environmental testing for chromium did not specifically look for hexavalent chromium, or chromium 6, and why scientists, residents, and public officials are still asking whether it is worth looking now.As Season 3 begins, we follow new questions about environmental testing, health concerns, and what may still be

Listen to the next episode of our podcast, Under the Surface. In episode 18, The FoF (Filet-O-Fish) Turning Point to OpenFF (Open Force Field), we chat with @Lily Wang, Science Lead at the Open Force Field Initiative (@OpenFF), about the unexpected, very human moment that set her on the path to computational chemistry — a cold Filet‑O‑Fish eaten at 1 a.m. after a disastrous night in the lab. Lily shares that she first wanted to study art. Still, a close friend's lupus diagnosis inspired her to

There is a lot to unpack when it comes to skin cancer and preventative measures against it. It's a huge and complicated topic that I think has sometimes been oversimplified to the point where the messages have become problematic... This podcast will give you a 101 on skin cancer, to hopefully help you cut through the noise. This is a roundtable convo, featuring skin cancer researchers David Whiteman PhD and Ade Adamson MD - both of whom are doing some big work in this research area and towards sound

Aluminum may seem like a common metal today, but did you know it was once considered on par with silver? Taylor and Andrew sit down with Marat Latypov, a professor at the University of Arizona, to explore how aluminum went from a precious metal to one of the go-to metals of modern society. We talk about the discovery that collapsed the price from dollars to cents per pound and the patent dispute it caused. We explore how a metal so hungry for oxygen resists corrosion so well and how precipitation

Mauricio Caraballo, PhD, director of the MSCollaboratory at UC San Diego, joins Candi Gokey and host David Oliva to unpack how untargeted LC-MS/MS metabolomics reveals hidden chemistry in coral reefs, fish, and ocean water. They dig into molecular networking, GNPS, and how free mass spec training is helping marine scientists worldwide analyze samples they couldn't otherwise decode.Links: mscollaboratory.ucsd.edu | Mauricio Caraballo: linkedin.com/in/mauricio-caraballo-4b5577176
