schott Photography's Light and Chemistry
Light touches a surface, a moment defined, Chemistry's magic then leaves it behind.
schott Coffee Bean Origins
Kaldi's goats, full of glee, Ate red berries, so happily, Sparking coffee's energy!
schott El Reloj Celular Humano
¿El reloj de tu célula, (¡el tiempo dirá!)? Telómeros se acortan, (¡la edad nos dará!)
schott See how a hidden 1978 rule controls almost everything you do daily.
schott Learn how the flour tortilla was created in northern Mexico during an attempt to recreate traditional Arabic bread.
schott Sort seeds and ingredients to discover the journey from farm to tortilla.
Cassius's Shift: Before pioneering French house, duo Cassius worked as hip-hop studio apprentices until a late-night rave fully converted them to the electronic dance scene.
schott Tenemos células zombi en el cuerpo que se niegan a morir y nos envejecen.
schott Las centrales de energía de la célula se vuelven menos eficientes, generando más desechos dañinos con el tiempo.
Reloj celular: Los ratones sin células senescentes viven hasta un 35% más y mantienen un aspecto físico mucho más joven.
schott Algunas células envejecidas dejan de dividirse pero no mueren, liberando sustancias que dañan a las células vecinas.
Región de secuencias de ADN repetitivas situada en el extremo de un cromosoma que lo protege del deterioro. En 1961, Leonard Hayflick descubrió que el acortamiento de estas estructuras limita la cantidad de divisiones celulares.
¿Qué terapia experimental busca eliminar selectivamente las células zombi del cuerpo?
schott Clasifica los cambios del cuerpo para entender cómo envejecemos.
¿Qué orgánulo celular produce la energía ATP y se deteriora al envejecer?
¿Cómo se llama el estudio de los cambios que activan o desactivan genes sin alterar el ADN?
¿Aproximadamente cuántas veces se divide una célula humana antes de alcanzar su límite?
¿Qué estructura del ADN se acorta con cada división celular regulando el envejecimiento?
¿Cómo se llaman las células que dejan de dividirse pero no mueren y causan inflamación?
¿Qué científico descubrió en 1961 el límite de divisiones de las células humanas?
¿Qué nombre reciben los compuestos químicos inestables que dañan las células al envejecer?
schott Louis Daguerre shortened exposure times from hours to minutes using silver-plated copper sheets and toxic mercury vapor.

schott The very first photograph took eight hours to expose and was captured on a metal plate coated with asphalt.
An early photographic process employing an iodine-sensitized silver plate and mercury vapor. Louis Daguerre used light-sensitive chemistry to develop the first practical photographic method in 1839.

schott Yemeni Sufi monks in the 15th century were the first to cultivate coffee plants and roast the seeds.
