Pharmaceutical scientists at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a novel chemical reaction that enables the precise functionalization of peptides and proteins.

Functionalization is a process of modifying the surface chemistry of nanomaterials by attaching functional groups, molecules, or biomolecules to their surface. This process aims to enhance the ...

In this study, a new synthetic methodology for the functionalization of polystyrene (PS) has been developed, in which maleic anhydride was used in the presence of zinc oxide as catalyst and ...

Diagram showing the functionalization of a metal oxide nanoparticle with various organic molecules, including trimethoxysilane, amine, phosphonic acid, carboxylic acid, dopamine, and cysteine. This ...

Chemical functionalization was performed to covalently bond a pyrene derivative to the SiN substrate. Using silane and peptide chemistry, they created a robust adhesion layer to promote π-π ...
