Fungal oxidative and hydrolyzing enzymes as designers in the biological production of dietary fibers from triticale
(Elsevier, 2021)
There is an urgent need to increase the daily intake of insoluble dietary fiber, and at the same time to find new sources and new production technologies. We hypothesized that fungal enzymes directly involved in lignocellulosic ...
Aminoalcoholate-driven tetracopper(II) cores as dual acetyl and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors: Experimental and theoretical elucidation of mechanism of action
(Elsevier, 2020)
Three coordination compounds featuring different types of tetracopper(II) cores, namely
[O⊂Cu4{N(CH2CH2O)3}4(BOH)4][BF4]2 (1), [Cu4(μ4-H2edte)(μ5-H2edte)(sal)2]n·7nH2O, (H4edte=N,N,N′,
N′-tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine, ...
Nutraceutical phycocyanobilin binding to catalase protects the pigment from oxidation without affecting catalytic activity
(Elsevier, 2021)
Phycocyanobilin is a dark blue linear tetrapyrrole chromophore covalently attached to protein subunits of phycobiliproteins present in the light-harvesting complexes of the cyanobacteria Arthrospira platensis (Spirulina ...
Valorization of walnut shell ash as a catalyst for biodiesel production
(Elsevier, 2020)
The catalytic activity of the walnut shell ash was investigated in the biodiesel production by the sunflower oil methanolysis. The catalyst was characterized by the TG-DTA, XRD, Hg porosimetry, N2 physisorption, SEM, and ...

A Strategy to Revalue a Wood Waste for Simultaneous Cadmium Removal and Wastewater Disinfection
(Hindawi Limited, 2021)
In this investigation, the possibility of wood waste (hardwoods such as oaks' and alternatives' staves from Balkan cooperage) revalorization for simultaneous cadmium removal and wastewater disinfection was examined. All ...
Oxidized Hemp Fibers with Simultaneously Increased Capillarity and Reduced Moisture Sorption as Suitable Textile Material for Advanced Application in Sportswear
(Korean Fiber Society, 2021)
Applications of hemp fibers, as a promising natural material in the textile field, mostly require improved fiber properties. In this paper, the oxidation of hemp fibers with potassium permanganate was applied to reduce the ...
Synthesis, chemical characterization, PARP inhibition, DNA binding and cellular uptake of novel ruthenium(II)-arene complexes bearing benzamide derivatives in human breast cancer cells
(Elsevier, 2020)
Inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) showed remarkable clinical efficacy in BRCA-mutated tumors. Based on the rational drug design, derivatives of PARP inhibitor 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB), 2-amino-4-methylbenzamide ...
Chemical modification of glycoproteins’ carbohydrate moiety as a general strategy for the synthesis of efficient biocatalysts by biomimetic mineralization: The case of glucose oxidase
(MDPI, 2021)
Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is widely used as a protective coating to en-capsulate proteins via biomimetic mineralization. The formation of nucleation centers and further biocomposite crystal growth is entirely ...
Antitumor activity of organoruthenium complexes with chelate aromatic ligands, derived from 1,10-phenantroline: Synthesis and biological activity
(Elsevier, 2020)
The monocationic chloro complexes containing chelating N∩N ligands: [(η6-p-cymene)Ru(L1–4)Cl]+ (1–4), where L1 = 4-methyl-1,10-phenantroline, L2 = dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine, L3 = 11-chloro-dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine, ...
