Sentence examples for compounds were improved from inspiring English sources

The work went back and forth between the chemists and the biologists: compounds were improved and tested.

The physicochemical characteristics of the compounds were improved by substituting the terminal amino acid for a hydrophobic cap group such as benzyloxycarbonyl, resulting in calpeptin (Z-Leu-Nle(norleucine -H, 29 (Fig. 6), a 40 norleucine -H,or of human platelet calpain 29113, 114.

Here, we demonstrate that density functional theory, with the recently developed strongly constrained and appropriately normed (SCAN) functional, has advanced to a point where both facets of the stability problem can be reliably and efficiently predicted for main group compounds, while transition metal compounds are improved but remain a challenge.

Our ability to detect and distinguish these compounds is improving: for example, one study over just one citrus orchard in the USA detected and tracked the varying atmospheric abundance of over 500 different organic compounds derived from the vegetation (Park et al. 2013).

The compound's properties were improved so it could be taken orally and manufactured in tablet form.

On the other hand, the stability of the layered compounds can be improved by modification with organic compounds because they can intercalate and/or adsorb into the layers to reduce the surface energy [33, 34, 35, 36] and further prevent the re-stacking of nanosheets [37].
