General description
Magnesium sulfate is an inorganic salt that is used as a magnesium precursor to synthesize Mg-based compounds. It is also used as a catalyst for various organic transformations.
Application
Magnesium sulfate can be used as a precursor salt to synthesize magnesium manganese spinel (MgMn2O4) as cathode material for use in rechargeable Mg batteries. It is also used in aqueous two-phase partitioning systems along with polyethylene glycol for the purification of biomolecules.
MgSO4 (anhydrous) can also be used as a drying agent in organic synthesis for the removal of traces of water from organic extracts.

Our aim was to determine whether or not specific microorganisms were transported selectively to lymph nodes in Crohn's disease (CD) by comparing node and mucosal microbial communities in patients and controls. We also sought evidence of dysbiosis and bacterial translocation.

We explored the use of a computational design framework for the stabilization of the haloalkane dehalogenase LinB. Energy calculations, disulfide bond design, molecular dynamics simulations, and rational inspection of mutant structures predicted many stabilizing mutations. Screening of these in small
