I've been experimenting more and more with LN2, liquid nitrogen. I've used it in battle on 'Iron Chef America,' but have also made some great ice creams at home for my family. Since it freezes basically on contact, you can have ice cream ready in mere minutes.

Many years ago it was taught that plants and animals were composed of different materials: plants, of a chemical substance of three elements,- carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen; animals of one of four elements, nitrogen being added to the other three.

In order to 'go out the door' safely, we go through a pretty thorough process called pre-breathe. This is the process of flushing all the nitrogen out of our systems by breathing higher concentrations of oxygen.

Excess nitrogen from the fertilizers can cause eutrophication in the ocean, which can lead to harmful algae blooms or hypoxia - reduced levels of oxygen that create conditions in which organisms can't survive.

Robert M. Pirsig

Why, for example, should a group of simple, stable compounds of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen struggle for billions of years to organise themselves into a professor of chemistry? What's the motive?

American Philosopher

Albrecht Kossel

The more the relationships of the nitrogen-rich substances to the cell nucleus were recognized, the more the question of the arrangement of the nitrogen and carbon atoms in the molecule came to stand out.

All of my dishes kind of have the same thing going on - I'm always going to give you the same things that I grew up with or that my mom used to make. I'm not going to use nitrogen in my tacos.

Lennart Nilsson

We sometimes freeze the specimen with liquid nitrogen, which is extremely cold, you know. This is another technique we use now - but the specimens are not alive.

Under natural conditions, the soil does not lose its fixed nitrogen.

Nitrogen is invisible and non-reactive at room temperature, unlike oxygen which supports combustion.

Common Gas

Nitrogen is essential for living organisms to create proteins, although we cannot see or smell it.

Invisible but Crucial

The phrase 'nitrogen cycle' refers to the continuous movement of nitrogen in different forms in nature.

Used in Phrases

Nitrogen fertilizers are a key component in agriculture to ensure crops have enough nutrients.

Agriculture Importance

Beyond fertilizers, nitrogen is used in preserving food and making plastics and pharmaceuticals.

Industrial Uses

In a laboratory, nitrogen can participate in chemical reactions under specific conditions, despite its usual inertness.

Chemical Reactions

 So you ask, just how small are atoms? To understand this, let's ask this How many atoms are in a grapefruit? Well, let's assume that the grapefruit is made up of only nitrogen atoms, which isn't at all true, but there are nitrogen atoms in a grapefruit. To help you visualize this, let's blow up each of the atoms

 We've doubled the flows of nitrogen and phosphorus around the world simply by using fertilizers, causing huge problems of water quality from rivers, lakes, and even oceans, and it's also the single biggest driver of biodiversity loss. So without a doubt, agriculture is

 Some plants added desulfurizing scrubbers to their smokestacks, or switched to low-sulfur coal and natural gas. Oxides of nitrogen emissions were also reduced with relatively low-cost technologies. These advances allowed the power sector to grow
