8 PhD projects announced in a joint programme of BOKU University @bokuvienna.bsky.social TU Vienna @tuwien.at University Vienna @univie.ac.at on Green Chemistry! Check details via the link ⬇️ The first 2 projects will be realised in my lab at BOKU. www.tuwien.at/greenchem/en...

This is a paper by Eleonora Ornati and Iiulia Ushakova that I am really proud of. Who would have thought that the well-known Glucose Oxidase is up for some surprises, i.e., that it initiates radical polymerizations without the need for initiators or activation by light! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....

Glucose Oxidase Initiates Radical Polymerizations by Direct Electron Transfer to Monomers

Glucose oxidase (GOx) is a widely used and studied enzyme, yet it continues to surprise with previously unknown activities. We report GOx to initiate radical polymerizations of acrylamides and methacr...
