The formation of lignin-like structures by the degradation primarily of plant polysaccharides
has been observed after the severe thermochemical acidic pretreatment of lignocellulosic …

Successful stabilization and preservation of biological materials often utilize low
temperatures and dehydration to arrest molecular motion. Cryoprotectants are routinely …

Selective conversion of fructose to 5-hydroxymethyl-furfural (HMF) involves the participation
of high-boiling solvents like dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). In order to replace DMSO with low …

Dielectric spectra of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)/water mixtures, over the entire concentration
range, have been measured using the transmission line method at frequencies from 45 MHz …

Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in aqueous solution is widely used for the preservation of
biological tissues under freezing conditions. DMSO and other agents are believed to act …

Sodium lauroyl lactylate (SLL) is soluble in water and insoluble in organic solvents, while
glycerol monooleated (GMO) is soluble in organic solvents and insoluble in water. These …

Molecular dynamics simulations have been used to investigate the effect of DMSO on 1, 2-
dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and 1, 2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3 …

Raman spectra of water/dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) mixtures have been observed at room
