Chemistry, Bacteriology, Biochemistry and podcast hosted by Melissa and Jam

Chemistry For Your Life

About

Melissa and Jam examine wool, lanolin and claims about resistance to odour and bacteria. The episode connects their chemical structures with water-repelling behaviour, processing and interactions with microbes, distinguishing observed odour reduction from broader claims about antimicrobial activity.
