There is strong interest in the valorization of lignin to produce valuable products; however, its structural complexity has been a conversion bottleneck. Chemical pretreatment liberates lignin-derived soluble fractions that may be upgraded by bioconversion. Cholinium ionic liquid pretreatment of sorghum

Transport and storage of acetylcholine by purified Torpedo electric organ synaptic vesicles is blocked by the drug L-trans-2-(4-phenylpiperidino)cyclohexanol (AH-5183). This study sought evidence of a specific receptor for the drug. Highly tritiated L-trans-2-(4-phenyl [3,4-3H] piperidino)-cyclohexanol (L-[3H] AH5183) was synthesized. An
