Maniar, Dina published the artcileEnzymatic synthesis and characterization of muconic acid-based unsaturated polymer systems, Synthetic Route of 627-93-0, the publication is Polymer International (2021), 70(5), 555-563, database is CAplus.

The design of unsaturated aliphatic (co)polyester systems, based on different diester-modified muconic acid isomers, was performed via an eco-friendly pathway by utilizing enzymic polymerization using Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) as catalyst. The obtained fully unsaturated oligoesters and polyesters reached lower mol. weights from 2210 to 2900 g mol-1 for the cis,cis-(Z,Z)-muconate isomer, and higher mol. weights of up to 21 200 g mol-1 for the polymers with cis,trans-(Z,E) isomeric structures. The obtained (co)polyesters were thoroughly characterized and compared with their saturated polyester analogs. The applied biobased catalyst Novozym435 (an immobilized form of CALB) showed higher selectivity towards the open cis,trans-muconate compared to the more closed-structure cis,cis-muconate. Anal. of 1H NMR anal. showed that alkene functionality is present, and no stereo conformational changes were detected in the resulting polymers. The thermal properties of the muconate-based polyesters showed a glass transition between -7 and 12°C, and a one-step degradation process with a maximum rate of weight loss between 415 and 431°C, depending both on the conformation of the applied diester derivatives and on the segment lengths of the polyoxyalkylenes. Mass spectrometric anal. of the resulting saturated and unsaturated polyesters revealed five different microstructures with different terminal end groups, such as ester/hydroxyl, acid/ester, ester/ester and acid/hydroxyl, and cyclic polyesters without functional end groups. Overall, this study demonstrates that enzymic polymerization is a robust approach for the synthesis of unsaturated polyesters.

George, James R. published the artcileStimulation of bacterial arylsulfatase activity by arylamines: evidence for substrate activation, Name: Potassium 4-nitrophenyl sulfate, the publication is Journal of Bacteriology (1981), 147(1), 69-74, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

A number of arylamines (including tyramine and tryptamine) increased the in vitro activity of arylsulfatase from Pseudomonas species strain C₁₂B. Amino acid analogs of these amines (e.g., tyrosine and tryptophan) failed to exert an effect. Stimulation of activity by tyramine could not be accounted for in terms of sulfotransferase activity for this phenol and no shift in the pH optimum for the enzyme occurred in the presence of tryptamine. Increased V_max due to these amines was independent of enzyme concentration but varied significantly with substrate concentration Evidence is presented which suggests that arylamines enhance arylsulfatase activity by forming a salt linkage with the substrate and rendering it more susceptible to enzymic and acid-catalyzed hydrolysis. The recrystallized tryptamine salt of the substrate exhibited a reduced affinity for the enzyme but was hydrolyzed more rapidly than the K salt, which is normally employed as the assay substrate.

George, J. Richard published the artcileTyramine-mediated enhancement of arylsulfatase purified from Pseudomonas C₁₂B, Quality Control of 6217-68-1, the publication is Biochemical Society Transactions (1979), 7(5), 1082-3, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The K_m and V_max of arylsulfatase, purified to homogeneity from Pseudomonas C₁₂B, acting on the K salt of p-nitrophenyl sulfate (I) alone were 2.34 × 10^-5M and 5.5 × 10^-3 μmol/min, resp. As the ratio of tryptamine in the assay mixture was increased, the K_m and V_max were increased until values of 8.00 × 10^-5M and 8.52 × 10^-3 μmol/min were obtained. Arylsulfatase had less affinity, therefore, for the tryptamine salt than for the K salt of I, but hydrolyzed the tryptamine salt at a faster rate. At a tryptamine/I ratio of 5:1, the V_max was 1.54-fold greater than that obtained with I alone. Phenylamines appear, therefore, to activate the activity in vitro of arylsulfatase from Pseudomonas by forming a salt with the substrate, which weakens the O-S bond of the sulfate ester, allowing it to be more rapidly hydrolyzed by the enzyme.

Zurowska, Magdalena published the artcileSynthesis and properties of ferro- and antiferroelectric esters with a chiral centre based on (S)-(+)-3-octanol, HPLC of Formula: 50670-76-3, the publication is Liquid Crystals (2019), 46(2), 299-308, database is CAplus.

A homologous series of chiral three ring esters were synthesized and their properties were studied. The materials possess an antiferroelec. phase (SmCA*) or/and a ferroelec. phase (SmC*), which was confirmed by observations of microscopic textures using a polarising optical microscope. The phase transition temperatures and enthalpies were checked by differential scanning calorimetry. The helical pitch was measured by a spectrophotometry method. For all cases the helix was right-handed, in the antiferroelec. phase the helical pitch increases with temperature, and in the ferroelec. phase the helical pitch was short.

Astuti, Retno Dwi published the artcileThe Volatile Compounds and Aroma Description in Various Rhizopus oligosporus Solid-State Fermented and Nonfermented Rice Bran, Name: Isobutyl palmitate, the publication is Fermentation (2022), 8(3), 120, database is CAplus.

Rice bran is known to have beneficial nutrients. Current studies suggest that solid-state fermentation affects the rice bran’s volatile profile. The aim of this study is to identify the volatile compounds and aroma description of fermented and nonfermented rice bran (FRB and NFRB) of Ciherang, Inpari30, IR64 and Inpari42. The fermentation was conducted using Rhizopus oligosporus solid-state fermentation Headspace-solid phase microextraction coupled with GC/MS was performed, and the aroma was translated by 10 trained panelists through quant. descriptive anal. (QDA). The result showed that 72 and 68 compounds were identified in FRB and NFRB, resp. They are aldehydes, ketones, alcs., acids, esters, fatty acid, phenol, benzenes, furan, thiazole, pyrazines, pyridine, lactones, terpenes, and hydrocarbons. The PCA showed that FRB was dominated by alcs., whereas NFRB was dominated by aldehydes. The QDA described nine aromas, i.e., rancid, smoky, musty, grassy, green, earthy, cereal, and sweet in NFRB. The fermentation process added fermented attributes to the aroma description to FRB and enhanced the rancid, smoky, and musty aromas. These studies indicated that fermented rice bran might increase the volatile compound of rice bran. Thus, it may provide opportunities to develop the production of fermented rice bran as a functional ingredient.

Maniscalco, Giorgia Teresa published the artcileLong term persistence of SARS-CoV-2 humoral response in multiple sclerosis subjects, SDS of cas: 624-49-7, the publication is Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders (2022), 103800, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The persistence of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV)-2 pandemic, partly due to the appearance of highly infectious variants, has made booster vaccinations necessary for vulnerable groups. Here, we present data regarding the decline of the SARS-CoV-2 BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine-induced humoral immune response in a monocentric cohort of MS patients.96 MS patients undergoing eight different DMTs, all without previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, were evaluated for anti-Spike IgG levels, 21 days (T1) and 5-6 mo (T2) after the second SARS-CoV-2 BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine dose. The anti-Spike IgG titer from MS subjects was compared with 21 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HC). When compared with SARS-CoV-2 IgG levels at T2 in HC, we observed comparable levels in interferon-β 1a-, di-Me fumarate-, teriflunomide- and natalizumab-treated MS subjects, but an impaired humoral response in MS subjects undergoing glatiramer acetate-, cladribine-, fingolimod- and ocrelizumab-treatments. Moreover, comparison between SARS-CoV-2 IgG Spike titer at T1 and T2 revealed a faster decline of the humoral response in patients undergoing di-Me fumarate-, interferon-β 1a- and glatiramer acetate-therapies, while those receiving teriflunomide and natalizumab showed higher persistence compared to healthy controls. The prominent decline in humoral response in MS subjects undergoing di-Me fumarate-, interferon-β 1a- and glatiramer acetate-therapies should be considered when formulating booster regimens as these subjects would benefit of early booster vaccinations.

Gutierrez Gonzalez, Jessica published the artcileLong PEO-based nanoribbons generated in a polystyrene matrix through reaction-induced microphase separation followed by a fast crystallization process, Recommanded Product: Ethyl 4-dimethylaminobenzoate, the publication is Soft Matter (2021), 17(8), 2279-2289, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

A dispersion of elongated nanostructures with a high aspect ratio in polymer matrixes has been reported to provide a material with valuable properties such as mech. strength, barrier effect and shape memory, among others. In this study, we show the procedure to achieve a distribution of elongated crystalline nanodomains in a PS matrix employing the self-assembly of amphiphilic block copolymers (BCP). The selected BCP was polystyrene-block-polyethylene oxide (PS-b-PEO). It was dissolved at 10 wt% in a styrene (St) monomer and the blend was slowly photopolymerized over four days at room temperature, until the reaction was arrested by vitrification. This blend was initially homogeneous and nanostructuration took place in an early stage of the polymerization as a result of the microphase separation (MS) of PEO blocks. Due to its high tendency to crystallize, demixed PEO blocks crystallized almost concomitantly with MS triggering the growing of the nanostructures. Thus, the time window between the onset of crystallization and the vitrification of the matrix was almost four days, allowing all micelles to have the opportunity to couple to a growing nanostructure. As a result, a population of nanoribbons with average lengths surpassing 10μm dispersed in a PS matrix was obtained. It was demonstrated that these ribbon-like nanostructures are preserved as long as the heating temperature is located below the T_g of the matrix. If the material is heated above this temperature, softening of the matrix allows the breakup of the molten PEO nanoribbons due to Plateau-Rayleigh instability.

Al-eesa, N. A. published the artcileRemineralizing fluorine containing bioactive glass composites, HPLC of Formula: 10287-53-3, the publication is Dental Materials (2021), 37(4), 672-681, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The objective was to investigate the mech. properties, fluoride release and apatite formation of resin based dental composites based on a fluoride containing Bioactive Glass (BG) with and without a silylating agent. A SiO₂-P₂O₅-CaO-SrO-Na₂O-CaF₂ BG was synthesized by the melt quench route. This glass and a com. available inert glass (IG) were incorporated into a light cured BisGMA-TEGMA resin. The composite resins were then evaluated in terms of their ability to form apatite by Fourier Transform IR spectroscopy (FTIR) and by SEM (SEM) following immersion in artificial saliva at pH 4 (AS4) and pH 7 (AS7). The experiments were performed with and without silylation of the BG. The compressive strength and flexural strength were determined after 1, 28 and 84 days of immersion in the AS4 and AS7 immersion media. The FTIR spectra of the BG composites exhibited split bands at approx. 560 and 600 cm^-1 corresponding to a apatite formation in the surface or on the surface under all immersion conditions. SEM showed the presence of a reacted layer of glass particles in the composite surface and the presence of a surface layer of apatite in AS7. The compressive strength and flexural strength were significantly higher for the silylated BG composites. The strengths of both silylated and non silylated BG composites and IG composites decreased upon immersion. BG composites exhibit reduced strengths upon immersion but still exhibit strengths comparable to existing composites after 84 days of immersion.

It was reported that the bis(phosphino)silyl Ni hydride complex (ⁱPr-PSiP^Ind)NiH, I is an effective pre-catalyst for the (E)-selective semihydrogenation of a broad range of diaryl alkynes and SiMe₃-protected terminal alkynes. Complex I exhibited this reactivity under mild conditions (1 atm H₂, 25-50°C, and 1-2.5 mol % Ni) to afford the corresponding (E)-alkenes with high selectivity. Stoichiometric experiments revealed that facile alkyne insertion and subsequent alkene isomerization led to the observed selectivity.

Li, Guoping published the artcileNon-fullerene acceptors with direct and indirect hexa-fluorination afford >17% efficiency in polymer solar cells, Category: esters-buliding-blocks, the publication is Energy & Environmental Science (2022), 15(2), 645-659, database is CAplus.

The rational mol. design of non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) in organic solar cells (OSCs) can profoundly influence the photovoltaic (OPV) performance. To date, NFA fluorination has proven beneficial to cell performance. However, there is a lack of comprehensive understanding of how various fluorination modalities influence film morphol., carrier mobility, mol. packing, other structural properties, electronic structure, exciton separation, and charge transport, that determine ultimate cell efficiency. Here, we compare two types of end group (EG) fluorination patterns on Y6-based A-DAD-A cores, resulting in highly efficient NFAs: direct skeletal fluorination (BTF) and indirect trifluoromethyl fluorination (BTFM). These two patterns induce distinctive behaviors in the active layer blends with a chlorinated donor polymer D18-Cl and the additive, 1-chloronaphthalene, affording high PCE values of 17.30% (BTF + additive) and 17.10% (BTFM, no-additive). The BTFvs. BTFM OSC performance trends can be correlated with diffraction-derived differences in mol. packing. D. functional theory (DFT) reveals remarkably low internal reorganization energies and high electronic coupling between NFA dimers, greater and more numerous than in other NFAs reported to date, thus providing extended 3D charge transport networks in the thin film crystalline domains. Transient absorption spectroscopy reveals that hole transfer from the acceptor to the donor occurs in <300 fs and that photoexcited carriers persist for hundreds of ns in each blend film. The contrasting role of the additive in BTF and BTFM cells is further clarified by recombination dynamics anal. using in situ photocurrent and impedance spectroscopy. Overall, this work provides guidance for developing new NFAs via direct and indirect fluorination strategies for high efficiency OSCs.
