In 1998, the field of medical science marked a major milestone when Robert F. Furchgott, Louis J. Ignarro, and Ferid Murad were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for uncovering the role of nitric oxide (NO) as a key signaling molecule in the cardiovascular system. This ...
Crotononitrile is a good hydrogen acceptor in ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogen transfer reactions.
The Burgess reagent, (Methoxycarbonylsulfamoyl)triethylammonium hydroxide is a commercially available compound that has historically found utility as a dehydrating agent. The reagent may also be used to oxidize primary and secondary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones in ...
N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS) is a brominating and oxidizing agent that is used as source for bromine in radical reactions (for example: allylic brominations) and various electrophilic additions. The NBS bromination of substrates such as alcohols and amines, followed by elimination of HBr in the ...
Trimethylamine borane, also known as trimethylamine complex with borane or trimethylamine borane adduct, is a chemical compound with the formula (CH3)3N·BH3. It is a coordination complex formed by the reaction between trimethylamine (N(CH3)3) and borane (BH3).
SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) is a commonly used technique to separate proteins based on size. By denaturating the protein and giving it a uniform negative charge, the protein migrates to the positive pole under the application of an electric field and is ...
Diborane (B2H6), the simplest borane, is a useful reagent with many applications, but it is pyrophoric, gaseous and not convenient to handle. There is a wide range of boranes: Decaborane for example is not as reactive as diborane and is used as reducing agent too.
Cell culture medium is an indispensable part of cell biology research, which provides essential nutrients and a suitable develope environment for cells. The following is a comprehensive introduction to the detailed components and characteristics of several commonly used cell culture media:
Bis(pinacolato)diboron is a covalent compound containing two boron atoms and two pinacolato ligands. It has the formula [(CH3)4C2O2B]2; the pinacol groups are sometimes abbreviated as "pin", so the structure is sometimes represented as B2pin2. It is a colourless solid that is soluble in organic ...
