Equilibrium and non-equilibrium furanose selection in the ribose isomerisation network

Paolo De Los Rios, Daniel Maria Busiello, Shiling Liang, Francesco Piazza

The exclusive presence of beta -D-ribofuranose in nucleic acids is still a conundrum in prebiotic chemistry, given that pyranose species are substantially more stable at equilibrium. However, a precise characterisation of the relative furanose/pyranose fra ...

Identifying Mixtures of Isomeric Human Milk Oligosaccharides by the Decomposition of IR Spectral Fingerprints

Thomas Rizzo, Ahmed Ben Faleh, Stephan Warnke, Ali H Abikhodr, Vasyl Yatsyna

The analysis of glycans presents a significant challenge that arises from their isomeric heterogeneity. While high-resolution ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) has shown the ability to resolve subtly different glycan isomers, their unambiguous assignment rem ...

Production and characterization of stabilized lignin

Masoud Talebi Amiri

Lignocellulosic biomass is a sustainable source of renewable carbon, and it is the most abundant form of terrestrial biomass. The three main constituents of lignocellulosic biomass are cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. The monomers from these biopolyme ...

Cryogenic Vibrational Spectroscopy Provides Unique Fingerprints for Glycan Identification

Thomas Rizzo, Michael Zachary Kamrath, Chiara Masellis, Neelam Khanal

The structural characterization of glycans by mass spectrometry is particularly challenging. This is because of the high degree of isomerism in which glycans of the same mass can differ in their stereochemistry, attachment points, and degree of branching. ...

Validation of an integrative methodology to assess and monitor reductive dechlorination of chlorinated ethenes in contaminated aquifers

Christof Holliger, Pierre Rossi, Sonia Estelle Tarnawski

Bioremediation of tetra-and trichloroethene-contaminated aquifers is requently hampered due to incomplete dechlorination to the more toxic dichloroethene (DCE) and vinyl chloride (VC), indicating insufficient knowledge about the biological mechanisms relat ...
