How are your molecules feeling? A facile method to monitor degradation pathways of organic molecules

Abstract
In a recent issue of Chem, Carrington et al. introduced a low-cost operando diagnostic for aqueous organic redox flow batteries. Using pH and magnetic susceptibility measurements, they track state of charge and health of redox active organics in real time, revealing degradation pathways and air exposure effects without complex instrumentation.
