Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Carlos E Pena"
- Carlos E Pena's research primarily focuses on the fields of enzymology and dental materials, examining the structural dynamics of cellulases for biofuel applications as well as the effectiveness of various dental adhesives and restorative procedures.
- His study on glycosylation impacts on the Cel7A cellulase highlights the importance of understanding enzyme structure to enhance cellulose degradation efficiency, which is critical for bioethanol production.
- In dental research, Pena evaluates bond strengths and leakage in composite/dentin interfaces created by self-adhesive versus conventional resin cements, indicating a keen interest in improving the longevity and efficacy of dental restorations.
