Blue Light Breakthrough Could Speed Up Drug Discovery
Reported bySciTechDaily ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
University at Buffalo researchers developed a visible-light-driven method using blue LEDs and a catalyst to make two neighboring chemical changes to drug molecules simultaneously, published in Science, potentially reducing the number of steps needed in drug discovery.
The findings are limited to laboratory chemistry; clinical translation to actual medicines remains future research.
