Also called ethyl alcohol is an organic chemical compound; a simple alcohol with the chemical formula C2H6O. It is a volatile, flammable, colourless liquid with a characteristic odour. Ethanol is naturally produced from fermentation of sugars (sugar cane, corn) or via petrochemical processes such...
Breakfast cereals are packed with simple sugars. Consuming them will provide you with a quick burst of energy while causing huge spikes in your blood sugar levels. The type of food we’re talking about includes processed cereals, muffins, pastries, toast with sugary spreads, etc. Just because ...
I’ve had endless different topping combinations but always fall back on classics: sometimes, I think the simplest things are the best. And pizza is a food I could conceivably eat at every meal without deviation. When visiting a new restaurant, there’s a real internal struggle when I spot...
The simplest interpretation of this phe- nomenon is that proteins diffused out of the assemblies, resulting in a much more homogeneous distribution. Small fluorescent puncta (below B60 nm) were still occasionally visible, suggesting that some protein clusters survive this treatment. These are probably...
Future in-depth studies, initially using some model species or complexes may shift the traditional species concept as isolated clusters of genetically compatible isolates to a cohesive speciation network in which such clusters are interconnected by genetic processes, such as hybridization....
Gamete cell fusion is mediated by fusogenic cell surface glycoproteins; these proteins are made co-translationally by ribosomes attached to the rough ER where the first sugars are also added to make a core oligosaccharide, which is further modified and extended in the Golgi complex en route to ...
Below are some of the ways to maintain your gut health: Reduce Added Sugars and Processed Foods Added sugars and processed foods taken in high amounts automatically decrease the good bacteria in your gut. The more of you take them, the more your body craves them and the more damage they ...
An enzymatic technique called glycorandomization is now being used to prepare glycoside libraries and to make optimized or novel glycoside antibiotics. Sugars in natural products, such as antibiotics, are usually members of the 6-deoxyhexose family. Over 70 different variants were found in products ...
By paraphrasing one of Kipling’s most amazing short stories (How the Leopard Got His Spots), this article could be entitled “How Sugars Became
The so-called "simple sugars" are classified as monosaccharides and are those sugars which upon hydrolysis do not break down into smaller simple sugars. One may further classify monosaccharides as aldoses or ketoses, depending upon whether they are hydroxy aldehydes or hydroxy ketones, and by the...
