The high cost of nicotinamide cofactors requires that they be regeneratedin situ when used
in preparative enzymatic synthesis. Numerous strategies have been tested forin situ …

Acylase I (aminoacylase; A-acylamino-acid amidohydrolase, EC 3.5. 1.14, from porcine
kidney and the fungus Aspergillus) is a broadly applicable enzymatic catalyst for the kinetic …

Cofactors are low-molecular-weight non-protein species that are essential participants in
enzyme-catalysed reactions. Certain cofactors (eg pyridoxal phosphate and thiamine …

The above electron transfers are very fast in comparison with the more standard Co (II)/Co (III)
couples. 12 In both cases described herein the transfered electron occupies a-…

Swellable PEG amine/dextran aldehyde composite materials are emerging as a controlled,
biocompatible tissue adhesive. We explain how preservation of natural tissue amines …

Purpose: To investigate the ability of a novel polysaccharide-based tissue adhesive to seal
corneal incisions, and to determine the effect of the tissue adhesive on corneal endothelial …

The effects of polysaccharide-based tissue adhesives on cell survival and inflammatory cell
activation were determined using in vitro mouse cell cultures. Cytotoxicity of tissue …

Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH, rabbit muscle, EC 1.1.1.27), coupled with pyruvic and glyoxylic
acids as oxidants, regenerates NAD in situ for enzyme-catalyzed oxidations. The use of …

Various anomerically pure isopropenyl α- and β-glycopyranosides have been synthesized
and shown to undergo synthetically useful transglycosylation reactions with a variety of …

O-Isopropenyl glycosides bearing ester protecting groups are activated as glycosyl donors by
a variety of electrophiles. Diastereomerically pure β-glycoside products are formed in good …
