Application

Adamantane is the structural backbone of various medicinally important compounds such as amantadine, memantine, saxagliptin and vildagliptin. It is used in the synthesis of adamantine-based dirhodium tetracarboxylate catalyst for carbenoid reactions. It can also be used as a seeding material for the nucleation of nanocrystalline diamond films.

Valorization of agricultural waste has become increasingly important. Wastes generated by wineries are high in phenolic compounds with antioxidant and antibacterial properties, which contribute to phytotoxicity, making their immediate use for agricultural means limited. Utilizing a water-based extraction method, the

Coherence lifetimes in homonuclear dipolar decoupled 1H solid-state NMR experiments are usually on the order of a few ms. We discover an oscillation that limits the lifetime of the coherences by recording spin-echo dephasing curves. We find that this oscillation

Incretin hormones, including glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a target for diabetes mellitus (DM) treatment, are associated with cardioprotection. As dipeptidyl-peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibition increases plasma GLP-1 levels in vivo, we investigated the cardioprotective effects of the DPP-IV inhibitor vildagliptin in a

The cardiovascular safety and efficacy of many current antihyperglycemic agents, including saxagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, are unclear. We randomly assigned 16,492 patients with type 2 diabetes who had a history of, or were at risk for, cardiovascular
