Application

α-D-Glucose is used:
  • As a reducing agent in the preparation superparamagnetic ferrous oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles and silver nanocrystals.
  • As an additive for the formation of isoporous polystyrene-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) diblock copolymer membranes.
  • For glycosylation of cell-penetrating poly(disulfide)s (CPDs) with improved solubility to achieve multifunctional cellular uptake.
  • As a precursor in the synthesis of metal/carbon nanohybrids under hydrothermal conditions.

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) may cause diabetes, in part through aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) binding. Ensuing mitochondrial dysfunction is postulated to mediate this effect. We aim to investigate the association of POPs with incident diabetes indirectly by bio-assaying AhR ligand
