[1] Three-Minute Enantioselective Amino Acid Analysis by Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography Drift Tube Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry Using a Chiral Core–Shell Tandem Column Approach.

The study of chiral conversion and peptidization in amino acids is of profound importance in understanding the molecular mechanisms that underpin biological functions. Chirality, the property of a ...

Scientists have discovered a centrosymmetric crystal that behaves as though it is chiral – absorbing left- and right-handed circularly-polarized light differently. This counterintuitive finding, from ...

Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, report in Small, a weekly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering nanotechnology, published by Wiley-WCH, Germany, ...

An investigation into the reactivity profile of alkyl halides has led to the development of a new method for the asymmetric synthesis of chiral heterocyclic amino acids. This protocol involves the ...

The review introduces the molecular subtypes of breast cancer and outlines how altered amino acid metabolism supports tumor ...

Reducing our intake of a single amino acid called methionine, which we get from the food we eat, could help protect against ...

Researchers at the universities of Amsterdam and Utrecht have observed the formation of nanocavities in montmorillonite clay ...

A pioneering research lab at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has achieved another milestone using light-driven ...

Tridecanoic acid (C13) is a rare, odd-chain saturated fatty acid produced mainly by gut and rumen microbes, entering ...

Earlier this year, we spotted a forthcoming study which reported that levels of taurine did not consistently decline with age. But we knew Science had published research on this topic in 2023 that ...

Peptides are short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. In skincare products, peptides have many possible benefits, such as helping combat fine lines and wrinkles, protecting ...
