The aldehydes in reducing sugars will reduce silver ion from Tollen's reagent to metallic silver, leaving a reflective mirror on the inside of a flask.

Without any solvents or environmentally harmful chemicals, the team led by Professor Lars Borchardt was able to use the vessel to convert alcohols into aldehydes. The catalytic reaction takes ...

Aliphatic aldehydes and reducing sugars will form a yellow-to-red precipitate with Benedict's reagent, causing the blue solution to appear green-to-red. This reaction can be used as a test for such ...

By pinpointing aldehydes as substances that contribute to aging, this study sheds light on the intricate connection between ...

Many different mechanisms have been suggested for the oxidative lipid fragmentations that produce biologically active aldehydes such as 4-hydroxynon-2-enal (HNE), oxononanoyl phosphatidylcholine ...

Swedish startup Adsorbi, a research-based spinout from Chalmers University of Technology, has raised €1 milllion in funding from Metsä Spring, Chalmers Ventures, Jovitech Invest, and a grant from ...
