I and i

Kevin Barraclough
- 08 Dec 2001 - 
TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Bright Side of Lignin Depolymerization: Toward New Platform Chemicals

TL;DR: Following the whole value chain from raw lignocellulose through depolymerization to application whenever possible, specific lignin-based compounds emerge that could be in the future considered as potential lignIn-derived platform chemicals.

Recent advances and future prospects for increased butanol production by acetone‐butanol‐ethanol fermentation

TL;DR: In this article, the metabolism patterns and characteristics of acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) producing clostridia are reviewed, and the development of ABE fermentation with respect to the establishment of highly efficient butanol production processes, such as batch, fed-batch, and continuous cultures, with the introduction of butanol removal and enzymatic saccharification.

Formation of 2,3-Pentanedione from Lactic Acid over Supported Phosphate Catalysts

TL;DR: In this paper, 2,3-Pentanedione is formed by second-order condensation in the presence of phosphate, while acrylic acid is proposed to result from elimination of water via a cyclic lactic acid-phosphate transition state.

Differential Polymer Structure Tunes Mechanism of Cellular Uptake and Transfection Routes of Poly(β-amino ester) Polyplexes in Human Breast Cancer Cells

TL;DR: Findings indicate that PBAE polyplexes can be used to transfect triple negative human breast cancer cells and that small changes to the same base polymer can modulate their cellular uptake and transfection routes.
