Effects of Germination on the Fatty Acid, Folate, and Mineral Levels in Quinoa
This study analyzed the change of the key nutrients in quinoa during its short‐term germination process. The results showed that germination significantly increases the content of folate, protein, and trace minerals, thereby maximizing its nutritional properties for promoting neural development.

Probing the heme-thiolate oxygenase domain of inducible nitric oxide synthase with Ru(II) and Re(I) electron tunneling wires [PDF]
Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) catalyzes the production of nitric oxide from L-arginine and dioxygen at a thiolate-ligated heme active site. Although many of the reaction intermediates are as yet unidentified, it is well established that the catalytic cycle
