Hydrogen Peroxide: A New Weapon Against Cancer?

Cancer treatment just got a new twist with a clever use of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Scientists have found a way to deliver this common household chemical directly to cancer cells, making it a potential game-changer in the fight against tumors. The big challenge with H2O2 is that it breaks down qui

Boosting Hydrogen Peroxide Production with a Sweet Twist

The quest to make hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) through electrochemistry is tough. It needs a stable and high-performing electrode-electrolyte interface. A recent breakthrough used glucose to tweak the environment around this interface. This was done by sticking glucose onto graphite felt. The result? A

Insulin's Hidden Impact on Muscle Cells

Insulin is a crucial player in how our bodies handle sugar. It sends signals to our muscles to absorb glucose from the bloodstream. For a long time, scientists thought insulin boosted the production of hydrogen peroxide in muscle cells. This would then tweak certain proteins, affecting how insulin w
