  2. Ozone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone

    According to the American Lung Association, the Denver–Aurora area is the 14th most ozone-polluted area in the U.S. [65] The problem of high ozone levels is not new to this area. In 2004, the EPA allotted the Denver Metro /North Front Range [ b ] as non-attainment areas per 1997's 8-hour ozone standard, [ 66 ] but later deferred this status ...

  3. Ozone and biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone_and_biology

    Attempts have been made to separate out the empirical based ozone therapies from therapies based on a more scientific based understanding of how ozone therapy might work. [23] Despite such attempts there is no indication in the current literature that the controversy will lessen soon as there is a gap in the literature of long-term studies as ...

  4. Trioxidane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trioxidane

    The reverse reaction, the addition of singlet oxygen to water, typically does not occur in part due to the scarcity of singlet oxygen. In biological systems, however, ozone is known to be generated from singlet oxygen, and the presumed mechanism is an antibody-catalyzed production of trioxidane from singlet oxygen.

  5. Composition of the human body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body

    Water is ~11% hydrogen by mass but ~67% hydrogen by atomic percent, and these numbers along with the complementary % numbers for oxygen in water, are the largest contributors to overall mass and atomic composition figures. Because of water content, the human body contains more oxygen by mass than any other element, but more hydrogen by atom ...

  6. Triatomic molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triatomic_molecule

    Homonuclear triatomic molecules contain three of the same kind of atom. That molecule will be an allotrope of that element. Ozone, O 3 is an example of a triatomic molecule with all atoms the same. Triatomic hydrogen, H 3, is unstable and breaks up spontaneously. H 3 +, the trihydrogen cation is stable by itself and is symmetric.

  7. Ground-level ozone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-level_ozone

    LIDAR is a common ground-based remote sensing technique that uses laser to measure ozone. The Tropospheric Ozone Lidar Network (TOLNet) is the network of ozone observing lidars across the United States. [18] Ozonesondes are a form of in situ, or local ozone measuring instruments. An ozonesonde is attached to a meteorological balloon, so that ...

  8. Fluid compartments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_compartments

    The human body and even its individual body fluids may be conceptually divided into various fluid compartments, which, although not literally anatomic compartments, do represent a real division in terms of how portions of the body's water, solutes, and suspended elements are segregated. The two main fluid compartments are the intracellular and ...

  9. Isotopes of oxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_oxygen

    Water molecules with a lighter isotope are slightly more likely to evaporate and less likely to fall as precipitation, [14] so Earth's freshwater and polar ice have slightly less (0.1981%) 18 O than air (0.204%) or seawater (0.1995%). This disparity allows analysis of temperature patterns via historic ice cores.
