The role of pollinator attracting scent in the sexually deceptive orchids Ophrys chestermanii, O. normanii and O. tenthredinifera [PDF]
Sexual deception of male bees is one of the most remarkable mechanisms of pollination (Ackermann 1986, Proctor & al. 1996). Flowers of the orchid genus Ophrys mimic females of their pollinator species, usually bees and wasps, to attract males, which try ...

Synthesis and Evaluation of Saccharide-Based Aliphatic and Aromatic Esters as Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Agents [PDF]
A small library of sugar-based (i.e., glucose, mannose and lactose) monoesters containing hydrophobic aliphatic or aromatic tails were synthesized and tested.

Due to the biodegradability and drug-likeness properties sugar esters (SEs) are getting especial attention to the synthetic and bioorganic chemists. In this context, we have synthesized several 6-O-pentanoyl mannopyranoside esters (5-9) with alkanoyl and

SI‐bioATRP in Mesoporous Silica for Size‐Exclusion Driven Local Polymer Placement
An enzyme‐catalyzed surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI‐bioATRP) of an anionic monomer within mesoporous silica particles, using hemoglobin as a catalyst, allows for controlling the location of the formed polymer via size‐exclusion effects between the nanopores and the biomacromolecules, thereby opening routes to functional ...

Synthetic Lubricating Oil of Esters
Synthetic esters have extensively been studied and utilizeel as the jet engine oils. The earliest practical use of the synthetic esters was the diester type such as DOS. The diesters have excellent physical properties, but some are not very stable for heat.

This study presents a new hole transporting material (HTM) mechanism for self‐assembled monolayers in near‐infrared organic photodetectors. The formation of zwitterions induces a strong electric field that significantly increases the work function of HTM‐coated indium tin oxide substrates. The devices exhibit low dark current and noise, along with high

Action of the Kallikreins on Synthetic Ester Substrates
SummaryEvidence is presented which suggests that the kallikreins derived from hog pancreas, human pancreas, human urine and human plasma are capable of digesting those synthetic esters which contain arginine as the specific amino acid residue. Highly purified hog pancreatic kallikrein also digests acetyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester.
