About 47 million homes use natural gas or propane-burning cooktops and ovens. Researchers found that cooking with gas stoves can raise indoor levels of the carcinogen benzene above those found in ...

For nearly half a century, astrophysicists and organic chemists have been on the hunt for the origins of C 6 H 6, the benzene ring – an elegant, hexagonal molecule comprised of 6 carbon and 6 hydrogen ...

Scientists uncover new clues to the origins of the universe - and land new chemistry for cleaner combustion engines. For nearly half a century, astrophysicists and organic chemists have been on the ...

Let’s clear the air. Benzene, a harmful chemical found in gasoline, cigarette smoke and paint strippers, is a known carcinogen. Long-term exposure to high levels of benzene has been linked to leukemia ...

In a recent study published in the Environmental Science & Technology Journal, researchers quantified the benzene emission factors based on combustion using propane and gas stoves and benzene ...

Gas stoves have long been sold as a mark of a serious kitchen, but mounting research suggests they quietly load homes with pollution that behaves less like a cozy hearth and more like secondhand smoke ...

A chemical linked to a higher risk of leukemia and other blood cell cancers creeps into millions of homes whenever residents light their gas stoves. A new Stanford-led analysis finds that a single gas ...
