Synchrotron FT-IR microspectroscopy has been used to study the side effects of typical tooth whitening treatments, based on oxidation, compared to a new treatment developed by the authors through reduction.

Visualisation of Hyper-CEST to reveal two previously “hidden” structures of metal-organic cages.
1 Apr 2022

Using the Hyper-CEST NMR technique, researchers have revealed two previously little researched variants of a type of transport container from the class of metal–organic polyhedra (MOPs). This could lead to a novel type of MRI contrast agent.
