Synthesis and applications of DPP-based II-conjugated polymers via direct arylation polymerization by Wang, Kai

“…The synthesis of these materials is typically realized by conventional cross-coupling reactions, which require extra steps to synthesize organometallic reagents and involves toxic tin byproducts (Stille coupling). To overcome the drawbacks of these traditional coupling reactions, direct arylation by activation of C-H bonds has emerged as a new type of cross-coupling reaction as an economically attractive and ecologically benign way. …”

Production and characterisation of nanoemulsions stabilised by sophorolipids produced from different secondary substrates by Leow, Yew Seng

“…SLs surfactants are preferred over their chemical counterpart due to their intrinsic properties such as high biodegradability, environmentally friendly, low toxicity and excellent surface activities. However, their production is still inferior to the chemical surfactants and their performance as emulsifier are poor. …”

Growth performance and intestinal morphology of broilers fed low protein and low methionine diets supplemented with putrescine by Hashemi, Seyed Mohammad

“…High levels of dietary PA are reported to be toxic but lower level is strongly needed by the animals and plants. …”

Nutrigenomic study of germinated brown rice in type 2 diabetes mellitus by Imam, Mustapha Umar

“…Also, upregulation of some xenobiotic metabolism genes in type 2 diabetic rats was potentiated by WR, with the likely consequence of faster drug metabolism, less drug efficacy and more toxicity. GBR did not produce as much upregulation as WR, and BR showed significantly lower expression values than both WR and GBR. …”
