Read research and analysis on Plant Enzymes Discern Enantiomers with Varying Biological Effects published by ICANEWS, a global research journal for emerging researchers.

Overview

Many naturally occurring molecules, such as menthol or limonene, exist as two mirror-image forms, known as enantiomers. These enantiomers, despite their structural similarity, can exhibit significant differences in properties such as smell, taste, or their effects on the body.
