Mode of attack of hydriodic acid on unsaturated glyceryl ethers
The mode of action of hydriodic acid (HI) on a sample rich in selachyl alcohol [1-O-9(cis)-octadecenyl glycerol] has been studied. HI attacked the olefinic bonds as well as the ether bonds, with the formation of at least two diiodides as well as the ...

VARIOUS attempts have been described1 to acetylate alginic acid by means of acetic anhydride or acetic acid, without or with catalysts, for example, pyridine, acids, etc. Some of the products thus obtained were probably degraded, and it appeared of interest, therefore, to find out whether the acetylation of alginic acid can be done by a relatively mild

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

KHS‐Cnd peptide is able to impair biofilm formation and disaggregate mature biofilms in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. Differences in extracellular metabolites reflect changes in biofilm metabolism due to KHS‐Cnd treatment. Among the differentially represented extracellular metabolites upon KHS‐Cnd treatment, the significantly altered ...

Kinetic studies and predictions on the hydrolysis and aminolysis of esters of 2-S-phosphorylacetates
Background: Heterobifunctional cross-linking agents are useful in both protein science and organic synthesis. Aminolysis of reactive esters in aqueous systems is often used in bioconjugation chemistry, but it must compete against hydrolysis processes ...

ATP13A2 is involved in intracellular polyamine transport in lung epithelial cells
Spermidine transport in lung epithelial cells involves the polyamine transporter ATP13A2. Cell proliferation is associated with the upregulation of ATP13A2. Polyamines are present in all living cells and are implicated in various crucial cellular processes such as proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy.

We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...

Separation of sterol acetates by column and thin-layer argentation chromatography
Column and thin-layer chromatographic systems employing silver nitrate-impregnated adsorbents are described for the separation of sterol acetates which differ in the number of double bonds in the steroid nucleus or side chain.

Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.
