Simultaneous Monitoring of Gaseous CO2 and Ethanol above Champagne Glasses via Micro-gas Chromatography (μGC)
Clara Cilindre, Alexandra Conreux, and Gérard Liger-BelairJournal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry2011 Article ASAPSimultaneous Monitoring of Gaseous CO2 and Ethanol above Champagne Glasses via Micro-gas Chromatography (μGC)
Clara Cilindre, Alexandra Conreux, and Gérard Liger-BelairJournal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry2011 Article ASAPIn champagne tasting, gaseous CO2 and volatile organic compounds progressively invade the headspace above glasses, thus progressively modifying the chemical space perceived by the consumer. In this study, a novel, rapid, and nonintrusive method aimed to ...

Donald W. MundellJournal of Chemical Education2009 86 (7), 833Intermolecular forces and surface tension gradients in solutions lead to remarkable flows, known as Marangoni flows, where liquid flows from a region of low surface tension towards higher surface tension. Details of these flows, not visible to the naked ...

Marcos GugliottiJournal of Chemical Education2007 84 (6), 941While studying the calming effect of oil on water, Benjamin Franklin made other interesting observations and arrived at conclusions related to chemical concepts and phenomena unusual for scientists of that time. A careful analysis of Franklin's article on ...
