Application


  • New Functionalized Di-substituent Imidazolium Ionic Liquids as Superior Faster Absorbents for Carbon Dioxide Gas.: This research highlights the development of novel imidazolium ionic liquids, where ethanolamine plays a crucial role in enhancing their efficiency as fast absorbents for carbon dioxide removal, presenting a potential impactful application in environmental science and engineering (Shawish et al., 2024).

  • Role of ethanolamine utilization and bacterial microcompartment formation in Listeria monocytogenes intracellular infection.: This study explores how Listeria monocytogenes utilizes ethanolamine and forms bacterial microcompartments, offering insights into bacterial pathogenesis and potential targets for antibiotic development (Chatterjee et al., 2024).

  • (13)C-Stable isotope resolved metabolomics uncovers dynamic biochemical landscape of gut microbiome-host organ communications in mice.: Research here utilizes ethanolamine in stable isotope-resolved metabolomics to map the dynamic biochemical interactions between the gut microbiome and host organs, advancing our understanding of microbial contributions to host metabolism (Xiao et al., 2024).

The involvement of macroautophagy/autophagy proteins in B-cell receptor (BCR) trafficking, although suspected, is not well understood. We show that ATG5 (autophagy related 5) contributes to BCR polarization after stimulation and internalization into LAMP1 (lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1)+ and major histocompatibility

Monolayer cultures of rat hepatocytes have been examined for their ability to secrete ethanolamine plasmalogen as a component of nascent lipoproteins. In culture medium from these cells, ethanolamine plasmalogen comprises approx. 20-30% of total ethanolamine glycerophospholipids when measured either as

The alkanolamine 2-aminoethanol (NH(2)CH(2)CH(2)OH), otherwise known as monoethanolamine (MEA), is a widely used solvent for carbon capture, yet relatively little is known about its atmospheric chemistry. The hydroxyl radical initiated oxidation of MEA is thought to predominantly form the α-aminoalkyl
