All of these things we have to be able to answer, and we hope to be able to do so more reliably in the future. There is also scope to expand our model in future, to work with other types of staining ...

Using immobilized lipase, we developed an enzymatic synthesis of isosorbide-2-acetate (1), a key intermediate in the preparation of isosorbide-5-mononitrate. 1 was prepared in high yield (∼92%) with ...
