摘要
During the Olympic Games in Beijing there will be a lot of chemistry happening. We are not talking about doping but about the 10,000 participating athletes who will hydrolyze and resynthesize over 400,000 kg of adenosinetriphosphate (ATP) in their muscle tissues. This impressive figure shows that this little molecule definitely deserves more attention. Let's not forget that ATP makes the Olympic Games possible at all in the first place.
