This situation does neither side any good. For the foreseeable future, animal experiments will not be stopped or reduced as long as scientists —who still command considerable respect with the community and the government — generally regard their opponents as not worth taking seriously.

Baker’s yeast catalyzed Henry reaction: Biocatalytic C-C bond formation

The C-C bond formation is an important reaction in organic synthesis to obtain value-added intermediates.
