Peroxygenases as powerful and sustainable biocatalysts in modern biochemistry

Selective oxidation reactions are central to modern biochemistry. They enable the controlled introduction of oxygen into organic molecules, a key step in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. However, many of the enzymatic systems traditionally used for these transformations are complex and difficult to implement in practice.

Self-Healing Materials

Self-healing materials (SHMs) are substances that automatically repair damage, mimicking organic healing. These materials have a wide range of applications, including construction, biomedicine, transportation, and even textiles. SHMs can extend the longevity of manufactured goods and have numerous uses in medical healing (Crawford, 2024).

AUC-Guided Vancomycin Monitoring Explained: Why precision is redefining antibiotic dosing

Vancomycin is an essential glycopeptide antibiotic used to treat life-threatening infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, particularly Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). It functions by inhibiting bacterial cell-wall synthesis and is still the most potent drug to be used when others fail (Patel, Preuss, & Bernice, 2023).

From Innovation to Impact: Using Generative AI Safely in Patient

Artificial Intelligence(AI) is reshaping the future of healthcare. The US and UK healthcare systems started to adopt tools like AI Scribe and conversational chatbots, as they claimed to outperform clinicians in diagnostics. Survey data from over 100 physicians polled by Fierce Healthcare and Sermo indicate that many doctors are using general-purpose LLMs for clinical tasks.
