Application


  • A comparison of free amino nitrogen and yeast assimilable nitrogen measurement methods for use in alcoholic fermentation of whey.: This research demonstrates the utility of ninhydrin in evaluating nitrogen sources for yeast fermentation, contributing significantly to dairy science and fermentation technology advancements (Schaan & Hughes, 2024).

  • Further research into alternative carrier solvents for the detection of latent fingermarks.: Explores ninhydrin′s application in forensic science, particularly in developing new solvent systems for enhancing the visibility of latent fingerprints, crucial for law enforcement and forensic investigations (Able et al., 2024).

  • Substrate-controlled [4+1] and [3+2] annulations of ninhydrin-derived Morita-Baylis-Hillman carbonates to access polysubstituted furans and cyclopentenes.: Highlights the versatility of ninhydrin in organic chemistry, providing new methodologies for synthesizing complex organic compounds, which can be pivotal for developing new pharmaceuticals and materials (Wang et al., 2024).
