Ludwigshafen (ots) – The whole point of the skin of a cherry is to
keep that from bursting. The smooth, slippery envelope protects the
fruit from falling prey to funguses or microbes, and water usually
just slides right off of one. But the rainstorms feared by
fruit-growers are a different matter. In entertaining episodes our
Chemical Reporter answers questions of our Podcast listeners on
Chemistry in our everyday life.
