The enantioselective synthesis of highly functionalized cyclohexa-1,3-dienes was achieved via an organocatalytic one-pot three-component domino reaction.

Glidarc plasma completely mineralized glyphosate into CO₂, NH₄⁺ and PO₄³⁻. The kinetics has been studied and a plausible degradation pathway has been proposed.

Quantum calculations, docking and molecular dynamics simulations were performed, analyzing the interactions between six 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-benzoxazoles derivatives and the dodecamer d(CGCGAATTCGCG)₂. They showed favorable interactions, without DNA denaturation, and may act as potential biological probes.

Amine-based volatile corrosion inhibitors (VCI) are adsorbed on Zn surface under a VCI positive vapor pressure environment, and the adsorbed inhibitors are easily removed by opening the container having the pieces, saving costs and time to clean the metallic surface.

This paper describes a carbon paste electrode modified with Prussian Blue for selective determination of unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) in the presence of hydrazine.

New membranes have been elaborated and their physicochemical properties were assessed. The water absorption permitted the evaluation of the diffusion coefficient and the enhancement of antibacterial activity and hemolytic properties was emphasized.

The PTOCO (P = Prompt, TO = TOugh and CO = eCO-friendly) system of mini-scale antioxidant compounds extraction attends the need of obtain extracts in sufficient amounts for rapid and efficient application at several analytical methods, turning the routine of analysis in something more enjoyable.

A solid sampling electrothermal vaporization inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ETV-ICP OES) method was developed for element determination in pharmaceuticals.

A flow-injection spectrophotometric procedure was developed for screening organophosphorus pesticides. The method is based on the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase immobilized on controlled porous glass beads with acetylcholine chloride as the substrate.

A procedure of sequential trace-level Cd and Pb determination by thermospray flame furnace atomic absorption spectrometry, after cloud point extraction, was developed. The proposed method presents high sensibility, low reagent consumption and reduced waste disposal.

(BiO)₂CO₃ nanosheets have been successfully prepared by a rapid reaction using the hydrothermal method combined with microwave heating. The as prepared (BiO)₂CO₃ nanosheets presented good photocatalytic activity for degradation of organic dye Ponceau P4R under UV-Vis light.

The effects of the alkaline medium of the reaction mixture on the swelling and rheological properties of hyaluronic acid (HA) microparticles crosslinked with divinyl sulfone with regard to the interplay between the HA conformation and the extension of the crosslinking reaction.

Indigenous bacteria isolated from a crude oil sample were successfully classified in groups which match exactly with molecular identification using the gyrB gene sequence, showing the advantages of using this technique to build petroleum bacteria database.

Size reduced iron nitroprusside particles modified carbon paste electrode has been used for the electrochemical oxidation and reduction of NO₂^- and S₂O₈^2- respectively.

The graphical abstract exemplifies the comparison between two methods of gas chromatography.

Sodium dodecyl sulfonate incorporated polystyrene electrospun nanofibers was prepared and applied in ion exchange solid phase extraction.

New butyrolactones aspernolides C and D isolated from Aspergillus versicolor.

This report showed the bioreduction of ethyl 3-oxohexanoate by immobilized Kluyveromyces marxianus cells and tert-butyl 3-oxobutanoate by immobilized Rhodotorula rubra cells under continuous flow conditions leading to the desired β-hydroxy esters corresponding in high yields and enantiomeric excess.

The configuration of PSL at the air/liquid interface will change from disorder to regularly as the concentration of PSL and the ionic strength of solution increase, but it will array from tightly to loose as the pH value of solution increases.

Quinolines were synthesised by three-component reaction using Fe(III) and Yb(III) catalysts. From a single-crystal X-ray analysis for a synthesised quinolone, quinolyl and naphtyl groups connected to the C3 and C24 carbon atoms are twisted by torsion angle of 65.2°.

Response surfaces were obtained from a 2² factorial design for total n-3 fatty acids and n-6/n-3 and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)/saturated fatty acids (SFA) ratios in lipids of Nile tilapia fed with diets containing soybean oil.

Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) derivatives showed in in vitro studies the ability to capture methamidophos efficiently and could be used as an antidote to maintain acetylcholinesterase activity in poisoning events.

The first speciation of V(VI/V) ions with optical sensor, which is more superior in terms of sensitivity and simplicity.

Sulfonated organic heteropolyacid salts with superior esterification rate, excellent durability, and unique self-separation property desirable for facile recovery and recycling during homogeneous synthesis of isoamyl isovalerate are reported.

A 2³ factorial design was employed to optimize separation between estriol, 17-β-estradiol and progesterone by capillary electrochromatography through a monolithic column based on 3-(methacryloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane monomer. Once optimized, the method was applied to the quantitative analysis of a transdermal emulsion.

The Monte-Carlo sampling strategy was implemented in Bayesian regularized genetic neural network (BRGNN) algorithm for quantitative structure-activity relationship modeling of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) inhibitors. The calculated activities using BRGNN algorithm in this work are in good agreement with experimental values. The results of the present work emphasizes on the role of positive charge and polarity of molecules on ACC inhibitory activity.
