Aqueous sulphides, including hydrogen sulphide, have important roles in biological signalling and metabolic processes. Here we develop a selective sulphide-trapping strategy involving sulphide addition to an aldehyde; the resulting hemithioacetal undergoes a Michael addition with an adjacent unsaturated acrylate ester

In order to develop feasible production processes for microalgal biodiesel, the isolation of high neutral lipid producing microalgae is crucial. Since the established Nile Red (NR) method for detection of intracellular lipids has been successful only for some microalgae, a

To understand the effects of substitution patterns on photosensitizing the ability of boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY), two structural variations that either investigate the effectiveness of various iodinated derivatives to maximize the "heavy atom effect" or focus on the effect of extended

The nucleus contains diverse phase-separated condensates that compartmentalize and concentrate biomolecules with distinct physicochemical properties. Here, we investigated whether condensates concentrate small-molecule cancer therapeutics such that their pharmacodynamic properties are altered. We found that antineoplastic drugs become concentrated in specific
