Environmental applications of a biodegradable cysteine-based surfactant
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2020 An improved method has been developed for the efficient synthesis of octanoyl-cysteine in single-chain form (N-octanoyl-cys) which operates as a surfactant over a wide pH range, is easily decomposed into natural products and has a high product yield. The compound offers an environmentally acceptable agent for the adsorption of a range of heavy metals ...

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 A deleterious variant of FCHSD1 results in mTOR pathway overactivation and may cause porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD). The pedigree of the family demonstrated an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressivity. Whole‐genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing both validated the existence of the FCHSD1 variant and the heterozygosity of c ...
