We’ve been dreaming of this type of conjugation chemistry for years—and finally, a simple fix to a stubborn problem, all thanks to just a tiny drop of CSā‚‚. Minimalist chemistry is the new gold. ✨
Replying to @GongChenLab
@gongchenlab have been hunting for ways to crosslink two different amines for conjugation: turns out that just a drop of CSā‚‚ in air delivers great results! Read on in their Research Article: • onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

😊Delighted to share our latest #publication in collab with Dr. Rajendra Karki & colleagues from @SeoulNatlUni. In this @NatureComms paper, we show that #acrolein, a byproduct of our cells but also found in #cigarette smoke, #kills cells & contributes to #inflammation @ourANU 1/3
