DL-Glutamic acid is a racemic mixture of the proteinogenic amino acid L-Glutamic acid and the non-proteinogenic amino acid D-Glutamic acid. DL-Glutamic acid is used ito study its mechanisms of crystal formation and self-assembly on surfaces and copolymer development.

The existence region of a polymer-induced liquid precursor (PILP) phase for crystals of an organic compound (DL-glutamic acid, Glu) was determined for the first time in the phase diagram of the Glu-polyethyleneimine-water-ethanol system. The existence region and the amount of
In this work, we synthesized chiral mesoporous silica (CMS) spheres, which can be used as a potential candidate for chiral separation. The CMS spheres with controllable pore sizes (of 2-3 nm) and high surface areas of ca. 614 m(2) g(-1)

In this communication, we demonstrate that chiral self-assembled monolayers can be used for polymorphism control of chiral crystals. We studied the crystallization of DL-glutamic acid on chiral self-assembled monolayers and showed that crystallization of DL-glutamic acid on the chiral SAMs
