HUMANISM IN THE DIGITAL AGE: RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR SCIENCE AND DEMOCRACY


Identifying hazardous conditions for compression heat ignition of the chemically unstable gas Tetrafluoroethylene at an industrial scale

Tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) is an industrial scale starting material e.g.for polymer production (PTFE, FEP).When ignited the chemically unstable TFE is capable of decomposing in an explosive way.Explosion propagation through pipe systems of production plants have led to damage and fatalities within the last seven decades.Incident analyses identified

Binding-site assessment by virtual fragment screening.

The accurate prediction of protein druggability (propensity to bind high-affinity vegetable glycerin for sale drug-like small molecules) would greatly benefit the fields of chemical genomics and drug discovery.We have developed a novel approach to quantitatively assess protein druggability by computationally screening a fragment-like compound libra
