Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot forms in a deep vein, typically in the legs. Treating a DVT is crucial, as the clot can break loose from the affected vein, move through the bloodstream to the heart, and lodge itself within the lung's main artery. This complication—what's known as pulmonary embolism—can be fatal.

Researchers at Mainz University have discovered a natural compound that could potentially serve as a long-term alternative to opioids and may help alleviate the opioid crisis. Opioids, recognized for their significant pharmacological effects, have long been used as effective painkillers. Morphine, a notable example first isolated and synthesized in the early 19th century, provides crucial relief for patients in the final stages of severe illness.

German researchers have created a catalyst that converts ammonia into hydrogen and nitrite, potentially combining hydrogen production and fertilizer creation in one process. A research team from the University Alliance Ruhr in Germany has discovered a catalyst capable of converting ammonia into both hydrogen, an energy carrier, and nitrite, a precursor for fertilizer. Traditionally, the production of hydrogen and fertilizer has involved separate chemical processes.
