Phycocyanobilin, a bioactive tetrapyrrolic compound of blue-green alga Spirulina, binds with high affinity and competes with bilirubin for binding on human serum albumin
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2015)
Human serum albumin (HSA) is an important regulator of the pharmacokinetic properties of bioactive compounds. Phycocyanobilin is a blue tetrapyrrole chromophore of C-phycocyanin with proven health-promoting activities. ...
Zn(II) complex with 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde selenosemicarbazone: synthesis, structure, interaction studies with DNA/HSA, molecular docking and caspase-8 and-9 independent apoptose induction
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2015)
A new Zn(II)-based potential chemotherapeutic agent was synthesized from the ligand 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde selenosemicarbazone (Hqasesc). Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the Zn(II) complex consists ...
Lipophilicity Assessment of Ruthenium(II)-Arene Complexes by the Means of Reversed-Phase Thin-Layer Chromatography and DFT Calculations
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, New York, 2014)
The lipophilicity of ten ruthenium(II)-arene complexes was assessed by reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography (RP-TLC) on octadecyl silica stationary phase. The binary solvent systems composed of water and acetonitrile ...
Stabilization of Human Serum Albumin by the Binding of Phycocyanobilin, a Bioactive Chromophore of Blue-Green Alga Spirulina: Molecular Dynamics and Experimental Study
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2016)
Phycocyanobilin (PCB) binds with high affinity (2.2 x 10 6 M-1 at 25 degrees C) to human serum albumin (HSA) at sites located in IB and IIA subdomains. The aim of this study was to examine effects of PCB binding on protein ...
Recovery of molybdenum oxyanions using macroporous copolymer grafted with diethylenetriamine
(Elsevier, 2019)
The presented study describes macroporous crosslinked poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) [PGME] functionalized with diethylenetriamine [PGME-deta] as a potential recovery agent for Mo(VI) oxyanions ...
High performance alkyd resins synthesized from postconsumer PET bottles
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015)
The glycolytic recycling of waste PET presents a challenge for the production of secondary value-added products, such as alkyd resins. A way to overcome the unsatisfactory mechanical, drying and chemical resistance properties ...
Mixed-mode resins: taking shortcut in downstream processing of raw-starch digesting alpha-amylases
(Nature Publishing Group, London, 2015)
Bacillus licheniformis 9945a alpha-amylase is known as a potent enzyme for raw starch hydrolysis. In this paper, a mixed mode Nuvia cPrime (TM) resin is examined with the aim to improve the downstream processing of raw ...
Nutraceutical properties of the methanolic extract of edible mushroom Cantharellus cibarius (Fries): primary mechanisms
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2015)
The methanolic extract of the wild edible mushroom Cantharellus cibarius Fr. (chanterelle) was analyzed for in vitro antioxidative, cytotoxic, antihypertensive and antibacterial activities. Various primary and secondary ...
Antiproliferative and antibacterial activity of some glutarimide derivatives
(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2016)
Antiproliferative and antibacterial activities of nine glutarimide derivatives (1–9) were reported. Cytotoxicity of compounds was tested toward three human cancer cell lines, HeLa, K562 and MDA-MB-453 by MTT assay. Compound ...
