K-STATE 1xbet sports betting ENGINEER PATENTS ENZYMATIC PREPARATION TO MAKE ALL-NATURAL INGREDIENTS IN THE LAB

MANHATTAN -- A Kansas State University 1xbet sports betting engineer has developed and patented a 1xbet sports betting structure to make all-natural personal care products and purer pharmaceuticals in the laboratory.

K-State's Peter Pfromm, in collaboration with visiting scientist Kerstin Wurges, has engineered a way to use 1xbet sports betting to efficiently catalyze chemical reactions to create things like scents for perfumes or to avoid the introduction of inactive ingredients in drugs.

The process – scientifically referred to as a lyophilizate of an 1xbet sports betting and fumed silica – is essentially an 1xbet sports betting -covered nanoparticle of fumed silica.

Traditionally, to add the scent of rose to a perfume or lotion, the rose was grown and then its scent compound was extracted through careful processing. Over the years chemists have devised ways to produce these quite valuable scent compounds in the lab in mass quantities. By law, however, compounds resulting from a purely 1xbet sports betting process are not considered natural.

Pfromm's method uses 1xbet sports betting to catalyze the reactions needed. Since 1xbet sports betting come from natural organisms, the end product can be billed as natural. Also, no potentially harmful residues will be present in the end product, as may be the case with chemical catalysts.

&1xbet sports betting ;That enzyme will do the job of making that rose scent out of two chemicals,&1xbet sports betting ; Pfromm said. &1xbet sports betting ;Since the enzyme is derived from an organism, you end up with a product that is just as trustworthy as if you had taken a whole plant and extracted that molecule from it.&1xbet sports betting ;

In addition, the ability to make mass quantities in a reliable fashion isn't lost.

&1xbet sports betting ;You can make the product much faster, in much larger amounts and at lower cost -- and it's exactly the same molecule made by the plant,&1xbet sports betting ; Pfromm said. &1xbet sports betting ;You also then can say on the packaging that the product is natural.&1xbet sports betting ;

1xbet sports betting also can be used to make a purer form of pharmaceuticals.

Pfromm said that the active molecules in many drugs often come with an inactive twin that can be expensive and difficult to chemically separate. However, 1xbet sports betting are very effective at only producing the active version of the molecule.

&1xbet sports betting ;Most of the time the inactive twin molecule is harmless, but there is a trend toward making more pure pharmaceuticals,&1xbet sports betting ; Pfromm said. &1xbet sports betting ;Enzymes are exceedingly good at taking reactants and making them into only one of the versions, not both. They are supremely selective in this way; chemical catalysts are not.&1xbet sports betting ;

The nanoparticle support is critical to the success, Pfromm said. 1xbet sports betting naturally work best in water, but the processes used to produce such compounds generally take place in some organic solvent. Though 1xbet sports betting work in these solvents, they can easily clump, making 1xbet sports betting inside of the tight clumps that are essentially wasted.

Using an electrostatic process to coat the fumed silica nanoparticles with the enzyme exposes the maximum number of 1xbet sports betting to the reaction mixture. This maximizes the amount of end product made and makes more efficient use of all of the 1xbet sports betting .

Fumed silica also is very cheap and is widely used in consumer products, including food, so any minute residues that may be left in the final 1xbet sports betting would be considered safe for drugs, foods or skin care.

1xbet sports betting already has fielded some interest from commercial entities.

Wurges, listed as a co-inventor on the patent, worked with 1xbet sports betting on devising the preparation and did much of the lab work while visiting K-State. She is presently pursing her doctorate at Forschungszentrum Julich, Germany.

The lyophilizate of an 1xbet sports betting and fumed silica was officially patented April 20 by the U.S. Patent Office.
