Abstract
Coupling of a macromolecule such as an enzyme or a receptor to a chromatographic support has revealed a powerful analytical tool to face different aspects related to drug discovery. Chromatographic systems with immobilized macromolecules have been developed to be used for different applications in pharmaceutical analysis including enzyme inhibitor screening, biopharmaceutics structural analysis, chiral separations and binding studies. These areas of research are very challenging both for the technological and for the applicative aspects. This review offers an overview of general strategies and references that can be considered in order to develop innovative and reliable “protein-labs” for specific separative analytical applications of pharmaceutical interest.
Keywords: Protein immobilization, bio-affinity chromatography, immobilized enzyme reactors, chiral stationary phases, drug binding, enantioseparation, inhibitor potency determination.

Carbohydrates conversion in biofuels and bioproducts
Biomass pretreatment, hydrolysis, and saccharification of carbohydrates, and sugars bioconversion in biofuels and bioproducts within a biorefinery framework. Carbohydrates derived from woody biomass, agricultural wastes, algae, sewage sludge, or any other lignocellulosic feedstock are included in this issue. Simulation, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis of a biorefinery process are ...read more
Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
