Word of the day: Zwitterionic

Accepted submission by aliks at 2025-03-28 21:18:18 from the BioChemistry dept.
Science
In the spirit of making a submission a week - I had a look at the front page of phys.org

The article:

immediately caught my eye. Are we letting the biochemists get ahead of cyber geeks in the battle for the wierdest jargon?

We must fight back! Although zwitterions do have a bit of history behind them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwitterion [wikipedia.org]
