Obesity is a physiological condition of chronic positive energy balance. While the regulation of energy metabolism varies widely among individuals, identifying those who are metabolically prone to ...

The purpose of the whole-room indirect calorimetry suite is to provide measurements of human energy expenditure and substrate utilization, both long-term (24-hour) and short-term (1–6-hour), for ...

Like someone who finally sits after a long, tiring day of standing, gas-phase molecules breathe a sigh of relief, so to speak, as they “take a seat” (adsorb) on solid surfaces. The sigh comes in the ...

Users can use simple equipment to measure enthalpy, a term often associated with physicists but significantly relevant to daily life. Heat transfer plays a pivotal role in all these processes, and ...

Researchers from Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, have developed a new method that allows them to visualize the contribution of the interaction between water and proteins for the first time with ...

What is a calorie? While most people think of calories in relation to food, calories are simply a unit of heat energy. In fact, measuring calories is essential to energy science because every chemical ...

Heat release during cycling of battery half-cells is investigated by a combination of electrochemical methods and isothermal micro-calorimetry with special emphasis on Li- and Mn-rich NCM cathode ...

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a thermal analysis method that measures the difference between the rate of heat flow into a specimen and into a reference, measured as a function of ...
