The first successful human transplant of a kidney converted from blood type A to universal type O used special enzymes developed at the University of British Columbia to help prevent a mismatch and ...

Researchers have developed a highly efficient and reusable biocatalyst with promising applications in the food and cosmetics industries. The international team, co-led by Newcastle University, ...

A growing body of research suggests that combining enzymes with biochar, a carbon-rich material made from agricultural and organic waste, could transform how scientists clean polluted water and soil.

Enzymes with specific functions are becoming increasingly important in industry, medicine and environmental protection. For example, they make it possible to synthesize chemicals in a more ...

Biocatalysis harnesses the extraordinary specificity and catalytic power of enzymes to drive chemical transformations under mild, environmentally benign conditions. Enzymes—nature’s catalysts—mediate ...

Cascade Biocatalysts, a biomanufacturing company catalyzing green chemistry, raised an oversubscribed $2.6 M pre-seed led by Ten VC with participation from Amplify.LA, Boost VC, Range Ventures, ...

To make advances in using microbes to sustainably produce materials, it is necessary to find new molecular tools, or enzymes—but this is labor intensive. A Kobe University team has developed a ...

Francesca Paradisi, Professor of Sustainable Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the University of Bern, talks to Nature Synthesis about the reactivity of biocatalysts in flow. It’s a cool story because it ...

Enzymes are proteins that catalyze chemical reactions in living organisms. They are widely applied in industries such as food production, detergents, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. However, for ...

As bakery markets evolve under the pressure of efficiency, waste reduction and changing consumer expectations, freshness is emerging more and more as a strategic differentiator. From retail shelves to ...
