The electrochemical production of H2O2 from O2 catalyzed by [Au25(SC12H25)18] was studied as a function of the charge state (-1, 0 and +1). Maximum H2O2 production (∼90%) was obtained from the negatively charged clusters (Au25(-)) due to the efficient electron transfer from the anionic Au25(-) cluster into the LUMO (π…

Hydrogels formed by ultrashort peptides are emerging as cost-effective materials for cell culture. However, L-peptides are labile to proteases, while their D-isomers are thought to not support cell growth as well. In contrast, the self-assembly behaviour and biological performance of heterochiral peptides (i.e., made…
