I and i
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.

Nonspecific hydrophobic interactions of a repressor protein, PhaR, with poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate] film studied with a quartz crystal microbalance.
TL;DR: The comparative QCM measurement of PhaR adsorption onto various types of polymers with different aliphatic chemical structures revealed thatPhaR was adsorbed onto the surfaces ofpolymers, including cr-P(3HB), mainly by nonspecific hydrophobic interactions.

Synthesis of hyperbranched carbohydrate polymers by ring-opening multibranching polymerization of anhydro sugar.
Toshifumi Satoh,Toyoji Kakuchi +1 more
TL;DR: The polymerization method, which proceeds through a ring-opening reaction by a proton-transfer reaction mechanism, is a facile method leading to a spherical carbohydrate polymer with a high degree of branching.

Surfactants from Biomass: A Two‐Step Cascade Reaction for the Synthesis of Sorbitol Fatty Acid Esters Using Solid Acid Catalysts
TL;DR: The results show a positive shape-selectivity effect when the process is carried out using tridirectional, and especially monodirectional (mordenite), zeolites, such that the ratio of mono- to higher esters and the hydroxy number of the final product are increased as compared to those obtained for the homogeneous-catalyzed process.

Sustainable enzymatic preparation of polyaspartate using a bacterial protease.
TL;DR: Poly(sodium aspartate) prepared by the saponification of poly(ethyl l-aspartate), which was readily biodegradable by activated sludge obtained from the municipal sewage treatment plant, may indicate the sustainable chemical recycling and biorecycling of this polymer.
