The US-based chemical supplier Alfa Chemistry recently announced the availability of a range of bioactive molecules  for scientific research, including activators, agonists, antagonists, and inhibitors. Bioactive molecules are compounds that can interact with biological systems, such as proteins, enzymes, and the human body, and produce a physiological response. They play a crucial role in the development of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and functional foods. In most cases, b ioactive molecules   exhibit therapeutic, preventing, toxicological and immunostimulating activit ies. “ Bioactive molecules can regulate, modify or modulate a variety of cellular functions including enzymatic activities, signal transduction, gene regulation, and protein function. They are essential for normal cellular activity and play a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis and preserving health , ”  said a senior scientist from Alfa Chemistry.   “ Bioactive molecules can be naturally occ...

What Is Hydrocolloid ？ Hydrocolloids   are molecules that have a high affinity for water and can form thick gels in water. Hydrocolloids can be derived from various natural sources such as plants (e.g. pectin, guar gum), animals (e.g. gelatin), and microbial sources (e.g. xanthan gum). They can also be modified chemically  to suit specific applications. Hydrocolloids are used in a wide variety of industries, most commonly in food and cosmetics. Hydrocolloids are extensively used in the food industry for various purposes, such as thickening, stabilizing, emulsifying, and gelling. They enhance the texture, mouthfeel, appearance, and shelf-life of food products. Some common hydrocolloids used in the food industry include guar gum, xanthan gum, carrageenan, pectin, and agar. Hydrocolloids play a significant role in the cosmetics industry. They improve the viscosity, texture, and stability of cosmetic products. Some common hydrocolloids used in the cosmetics industry include cellul...

Moisture determination is of vital importance to almost every industry. In response to the growing demand, Alfa Chemistry's renowned testing laboratory recently announced the introduction of the Karl Fischer titration method, which can be used in many industries, including but not limited to: pharmaceuticals , food and beverage, petrochemicals, polymers and plastics, cosmetics and personal care , medical devices, chemicals, textiles, agriculture, and paper and pulp. Since its invention in the 1930s by a chemist named Karl Fischer, Karl Fischer (KF) moisture testing has become a universal technique for measuring moisture content in a wide range of materials. "This method uses volumetric or coulometric titration. The titration solution consists of four components: an alcohol (ROH), a base (B), sulfur dioxide, and iodine. All four components of the anode solution can interact with water. The volumetric Karl Fischer technique calculates the water content based on the volume of reg...

The electroplating intermediate  is a material used in the electroplating process to adjust characteristics such as grain size, gloss, thickness and plating speed. Most of them are configured as electroplating additives. Then, it is added to the electroplating production process for additional use. According to different types of plating, it can be divided into nickel plating intermediate, copper plating intermediate, tin plating intermediate , gold plating intermediate, silver plating intermediate, etc . According to different functions, it can be divided into surfactant, brightener, wetting agent, softener, anti-fogging agent, etc .   The multilayer nickel plating system is usually composed of semi-bright nickel, high-sulfur nickel and bright nickel, and is widely used for items requiring high corrosion resistance, such as motorcycles, home appliances, plumbing equipment, etc . The quality of multilayer nickel is determined by the performance of the additives used in each pr...
