Despite dwindling reservoirs of crude oil and coal, there is still an increasing demand for the petroleum-based chemicals and materials produced from these fossil fuels. Today, modern society is ...

The Thermo Scientific picoSpin 45 NMR spectrometer is a useful tool for teaching through the aldol condensation reaction. In a number of undergraduate organic teaching programs, probably the first ...

UV and blue light stimulate transcription of key flavonoid biosynthesis genes in a range of higher plants. Here, we provide evidence that several distinct "inductive" and "synergistic" UV/blue ...

Run-off transcription assays were used to demonstrate that both the ultraviolet (UV)-B and blue-light receptors control transcription rates for chalcone-synthase mRNA in the course of light-induced ...
