Vanillin is the most popular flavor compound across the globe, and students at Tokyo University of Science in Japan developed a new enzyme that uses plant waste to create vanillin.

The vanillin derivative developed by the team absorbs light at 300 nm and enters into an excited state. This leads to a chemical reaction that triggers the degradation of the polymer.

Vanilla, the most widely used flavoring compound in confectionaries and cosmetics, gets its sweet flavor and aroma from the chemical compound – ‘vanillin’. However, the large-scale ...
