Description: structure like a battery we're able to do this also with catalysis this is the example of photocatalytic splitting of water and what we've been able to do is engineer a virus to basically take die absorbing molecules and line them up on the surface of the virus acts as an antenna and you get a energy transfer

John Cornforth

By combining chemical, biochemical and physical techniques, it has thus become possible to investigate the nature of enzymic catalysis in a novel manner, complementary to the other approaches which have developed over the same period.

Australian Scientist

Wilhelm Ostwald

Faced with this general consideration it will immediately be realized on inquiry into the particular position occupied within this general scheme by the scientific field of catalysis that it is in the first stages of its development.

German Scientist

The distinction between the old and the new formulations consisting in the incorporation of the concept of the rate of chemical reactions is so great that it immediately asserted itself in the objective development of catalysis.

It has pleased no less than surprised me that of the many studies whereby I have sought to extend the field of general chemistry, the highest scientific distinction that there is today has been awarded for those on catalysis.

The development of a rational view of the nature of catalysis was thus absolutely dependent on the creation of the concept of the rate of chemical reaction.

Sidney Altman

Furthermore, neither of our research groups set out in search of RNA catalysis.

Canadian Scientist

Used mostly in scientific contexts, especially chemistry and industrial processes.

Technical Term

A catalyst is not consumed in catalysis; it remains unchanged after the reaction.

Catalyst Not Consumed

Don't confuse catalysis with a 'reaction'; it's the process of acceleration, not the reaction itself.

No Chemical Synonyms

Sometimes used metaphorically to describe something that triggers change, like an event or action.

Metaphorical Use

Used in social, political, or historical contexts, relating to the start of something significant.

Figurative Context

The change induced by catalysis can be either positive or negative, depending on the context.

Not Always Positive

 But basically you can pull one out of a billion, and make lots of amplifications to it. Basically, you make an amplification in the lab, and then you get it to self-assemble into a structure like a battery. We're able to do this also with catalysis.
