Although water is not an essential participant in all modern acid-base definitions, most laboratory work with acids and bases involves water, as do most environmental, biological, and industrial applications. Recall from our discussion in Chapter 4 that water is a product in all reactions between strong acids and strong bases ... 

The synthesis of well-defined macromolecular structures with controlled properties is critical for the production of advanced materials for biological and industrial applications. Inspired by nature s ability to create proteins with exquisite control, we focus on the applications of elastin and elastin-derived polymers for materials design. The elucidation of elastin biochemical, conformational and physical properties offers insight into the fabrication of novel biomaterials. As part of this review, we highlight some of the recent advances that permit the generation of customized elastin-based polymers. These developments provide an added level of control vital to the future construction of tailor-made supramolecular structures with emergent physical, mechanical and biological properties.

Ihe diverse chemical, biological, and industrial applications of the numerous synthetic carbon-fluorine compounds are almost legendary. In 1944, Marais identified fluoroacetate in the leaves of the South African shrub Dichapetalum cymosum since then chemists and biologists continue to be intrigued by the natural occurrence, synthesis, and properties of the C-F bond.
