Advanced ceramic materials with a well-defined nano-architecture of their surfaces were formed by applying a two-step procedure. Firstly, a primary amine was docked on the ordered nanotubular ceramic surface via a silanization process. Subsequently, single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were covalently

The special need of SPPS for rapid and highly efficient coupling reagents led to the development of several new reagents starting from BOP (Benzotriazol-1-yloxytris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate).

COMU is a non-explosive coupling agent suitable for solution phase & solid phase peptide synthesis. Its activity meets or exceeds that of HATU and its water-soluble by-product are easily removed.
