写真
I use organic chemistry as a surgeon's knife to delve into life and biological phenomena. For instance, my lab successfully synthesized a natural substance with antiviral and blood platelet coagulation-inhibiting properties (that is, we synthesized a substance that is identical to a natural substance in a flask). We have also synthesized biologically active substances such as antibacterial and bactericidal substances and pheromones.
