In certain reactions which initially do not contain chiral information, stochastically distributed enantiomer...

The duocarmycins are members of a series of related natural products first isolated from Streptomyces bacteria in 1978. They are notable for their extreme cytotoxicity and thus represent a class of exceptionally potent antitumour antibiotics. Biological activity As small-molecule, synthetic, DNA minor groove binding a...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque-to-yield%20fastener
A torque to yield fastener (TTY) or stretch bolt is a fastener which is torqued beyond the state of elasticity and therefore undergoes plastic deformation, causing it to become permanently elongated. Fastener Torquing a fastener to its yield point results in a high preloading of the fastener which, depending on the lo...
