A chirality with a nice ring to it
An international team has discovered that an eight-membered ring has a previously overlooked potential for chirality. Its surprising robustness opens up interesting applications, they report in ChemPhotoChem.
0.0, yet full of flavour
Alcohol-free beer still needs improvement in taste. Scott Lafontaine’s research in ACS Food Science & Technology looks at alternative yeasts that can be used to brew tastier beers.
Dutch biotech enters clinical phase
Nijmegen-based Tagworks has passed the investigational new drug (IND) review by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its antibody-drug conjugate TGW101. A Phase 1 clinical trial is now being initiated in the US.
Poplar or eucalyptus? Lignin source influences fuel
In the search for the most suitable sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), researchers at KU Leuven have come up with a new approach that combines two catalytic steps, as reported in ChemSusChem.
The lab coat: essential for working safely
