Bioconjugate of Lysozyme and the Antibacterial Marine Sesquiterpene Quinone Avarone and Its Derivatives
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2012)
A conjugate of lysozyme with avarone, a bioactive sesquiterpene quinone of marine origin, and its three derivatives were synthesized. MALDI TOF mass spectral analysis and tryptic digestion showed that the only residue in ...
Catalytic activities of Pt thin films electrodeposited onto Bi coated glassy carbon substrate toward formic acid electrooxidation
(Elsevier, 2014)
Formic acid oxidation was studied on platinum-coated bismuth deposits on glassy carbon substrate. The catalyst was prepared by a two-step process using chronocoulometry, i.e. controlled amount of Bi was electrodeposited ...
Novel Aminoquinoline Derivatives Significantly Reduce Parasite Load in Leishmania infantum Infected Mice
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2018)
In this Letter, a detailed analysis of 30 4-aminoquinoline-based compounds with regard to their potential as antileishmanial drugs has been carried out. Ten compounds demonstrated IC50 LT 1 mu M against promastigote ...
Biocompatible and degradable scaffolds based on 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, gelatin and poly(beta amino ester) crosslinkers
(Elsevier, 2018)
Gelatin hydrogels have great potential in regenerative medicine but their weak mechanical properties are a major drawback for the load-bearing applications, such as scaffolds for tissue engineering. To overcome this ...
Coordination and redox interactions of β-lactam antibiotics with Cu2+ in physiological settings and the impact on antibacterial activity
(Elsevier, 2018)
An increase in the copper pool in body fluids has been related to a number of pathological conditions, including infections. Copper ions may affect antibiotics via the formation of coordination bonds and/or redox reactions. ...
Structural differences in diarylheptanoids analogues from Alnus viridis and Alnus glutinosa influence their activity and selectivity towards cancer cells
(Elsevier, 2016)
Diarylheptanoids represent a group of plant secondary metabolites that possess multiple biological properties and are increasingly recognized for their therapeutic potential. A comparative study was performed on structurally ...
Design and photocatalytic ability of ordered mesoporous TiO2 thin films
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014)
Homogeneous and crack-free TiO2 films with templated mesoporosity were prepared by the dip coating technique using an evaporation-induced, self-assembly method. The synthesized mesoporous TiO2 films were characterized using ...
Resolving the origin of the multimode Jahn-Teller effect in metallophthalocyanines
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2016)
A detailed Density Functional Theory (DFT) analysis was performed in order to study the multimode Jahn-Teller (JT) problem in the electronic ground state of manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc). A comparison with the magnesium ...
Regioselective synthesis of 1,3-thiazines by sequential 4-oxothiazolidine to 1,2-dithiole to 1,3-thiazine transformations: role of intramolecular non-bonded S/O interactions
(Elsevier, 2007)
A new synthetic approach to 2,3-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine derivatives based upon reductive rearrangement of 1,2-dithiole-3-ylidene thiones has been developed. In turn, the 1,2-dithiole derivatives were prepared by an efficient ...
Structural aspects of 4-aminoquinolines as reversible inhibitors of human acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2019)
Eight derivatives of 4-aminoquinolines differing in the substituents attached to the C(4)-amino group and C(7)were synthesised and tested as inhibitors of human acetylcholinesterase (AChE)and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). ...
