Scientists at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), in cooperation with the CSIC, have developed a new electro-chemical biosensor which detects the presence, in food, of very small amounts of atrazine ?one of the most widely used herbicides in...
Metallic complexes are molecuar structures where a metal is surrounded by other atoms or molecules with negative electric charge. These atoms or molecules that surround the metal are called ligands. UAB researchers are studying a kind of ligands that they have applications in agrochemistry and...

Nature is formed of atoms that they use to form more or less complex molecules. Chemical bonds and interactions keep atoms joint. This research has studied a very unknown chemical bond, the agostic bonds or interactions. They are very special because they don't join two atoms, so an atom and a bond.
