(The word
dendron in Greek means "tree.") But, to avoid confusion, we should point out that they have no particular relationship to the nervous system.
One of the reasons I have gone into research with
Dendron in Newcastle is because if people like me don't get involved, what hope is there.
The metallurgists first observing these crystals thought they resembled trees and called them dendrites, after the Greek word for tree ([TEXT NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] or
dendron).
Using new dendrimers with triolefinic 15-membered macrocycles at the end of the
dendron as stabilizers for preparing metallic nanoparticles provides the advantage of minimal surface deactivation for catalytic applications [113].

From 2008 on, she studied garden design in Chelsea, London and founded the garden design label

This polyether was obtained by chemical modification of commercial PECH with the
dendron potassium 3,4,5 -tris [4-(n-dodecan-l-yloxy)benzyloxy]benzoate (22).
