204 Citations | have shown that the reactivity of free amino acids with chlorine is related to their structure. |
119 Citations | On the other hand, the mixture of amino acids from endogenous sources is seems to more closely resemble the amino acid composition of terrestrial proteins. |
76 Citations | This provided conclusive evidence of plant root uptake of intact amino acids. |
19 Citations | Among the three sulphur-containing amino acids, both cysteine and methionine are essential to the cotton aphid since neither inorganic sulphur nor higher levels of either amino acid alone alter the requirement. |
94 Citations | The Cotton effects of thiazole amino acids correlate well with the absolute stereochemistry of these compounds. |
53 Citations | It is observed that polymers derived from α-amino acids constitute a promising family of biodegradable materials. |
9 Citations | This latter technique allows for discriminating among different amino acids and thus different peptide-cotton samples. |
Furthermore, amino acids in the region adjacent to the N-terminal region were involved in releasing microfibrils and in binding to dyed cotton fabrics, indicating that the binding of the amino acids in this region might be important in the release of microfibrils from dyed cotton fabrics. | |
Finally unoxidized cotton and pre-oxidized cotton further treated with glycine (amino acid) provide a new route of acid bath salt free reactive dyeing showing much higher dye uptake and higher degree of surface cover with amino acid residue anchored to modified cotton. | |
16 Citations | All the free Cm-L-amino acids and the dicyclohexylammonium salts of their N-ethylthiocarbonothioyl derivatives show positive Cotton effects at 200–225 nm and at 335–350 nm respectively in CD measurements; therefore, these correlations can be used for the configurational assignments of Cm-amino acids. |
