Biological sugar molecules, for example, are right-handed.
The researchers found that when pulling on collagen molecules, for example, the force required as the molecules were extended did not rise in a smooth curve.
"I see skin suffering from glycation [where sugar molecules attach themselves to other molecules, for example proteins and fats, causing ageing] as a result of a high sugar intake," she said.

Materials that combine inorganic components and biological molecules provide a new example for synthesizing nanoscale and larger structures with tailored physical properties.
The PDA-based molecular assemblies are robust and can be readily applied to diagnosis of physiological molecules and for rapid screening of chemical and biological libraries, for example, in 96 well-plate platforms.
Take the mysteries of biological life, for example.
Biological networks, for example, are not known for their minimality.
Proteomic analyses of human biological fluids (for example, plasma, urine, saliva, cerebral spinal and synovial fluids) have enabled the differential quantitation of large numbers of protein molecules between healthy and diseased subjects.
The response of the cells to biological molecules is known to change drastically in 3D, for example, many anticancer drugs are less effective in 3D culture [ 38].
