Sybrin Schröder & Casper de Boer
Long sugar chains from plant cell walls are an attractive feedstock for industry, but they are recalcitrant to break down. Many fungal species, however, easily degrade polysaccharides with hydrolytic enzymes. These enzymes are of high interest for industrial use. Sybrin Schröder and Casper de Boer developed…

New research shows the limitations of coordination in chemistry
A common assumption in chemistry is that the coordination number of a catalyst's surface determines the reactivity of the reaction it catalyses. Strikingly, Leiden chemists have now proven that this is not true for nature’s most simple chemical reaction: the dissociation of hydrogen. The researchers…
