Brouwer, Thomas published the artcileBiobased entrainer screening for extractive distillation of acetone and diisopropyl ether, Quality Control of 539-88-8, the main research area is biobased entrainer screening extractive distillation acetone diisopropyl ether volatility.

This work focuses on the assessment of biobased solvents for the industrial separation of acetone and diisopropyl ether employing extractive distillation From the exptl. screening of 35 (biobased) solvents at 1000 mbar, 84/16 mol ratio acetone/ diisopropyl ether, and a solvent to feed ratio of 1 (mass based) it was observed that DL-limonene entrained diisopropyl ether, resulting in an acetone relative volatility of 1.44. This is a consequence of the selective repulsion of the low-boiling and more polar acetone by DL-limonene. More extensive vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) anal. over the entire acetone-diisopropyl ether (pseudo-)binary composition range showed that DL-limonene was the only biobased solvent able to break the azeotrope. The exptl. investigated VLE data of this ternary system was successfully correlated with the NRTL and UNIQUAC models. The other solvents that appeared most interesting in the initial screening were water and ethylene carbonate, entraining acetone with the highest observed diispropyl ether relative volatilities of 2.71 and 11.6. Although the high induced relative volatility for the 84/16 mol ratio acetone/ diisopropyl ether appeared interesting, over the entire composition range this resulted however in a shift in location of the azeotrope rather than removing the azeotrope. Therefore, it was concluded that DL-limonene is for this system the best performing biobased entrainer of the screening study. The observations are in agreement with observations from literature on similar systems, where oxygenated polar solvents were seen to have more affinity towards the ketone than towards the ether, while apolar solvents induce a higher volatility of the ketones.

Franz, Roland published the artcileContamination levels in recollected PET bottles from non-food applications and their impact on the safety of recycled PET for food contact, Synthetic Route of 140-11-4, the main research area is contamination PET bottles food packaging genotoxicity toxicol; PET bottles; PET contaminants; exposure; food packaging; migration; non-food PET applications; non-intentionally added substances (NIAS); post-consumer polyethylene terephthalate (PET); recycling; safety.

PET beverage bottles have been recycled and safely reprocessed into new food contact packaging applications for over two decades. During recollection of post-consumer PET beverage bottles, PET containers from non-food products are inevitably co-collected and thereby enter the PET recycling feed stream. To explore the impact of this mixing on the safety-in-use of recycled PET (rPET) bottles, we determined the concentrations of post-consumer substances in PET containers used for a range of non-food product applications taken from the market. Based on the chem. nature and amounts of these post-consumer substances, we evaluated their potential carry-over into beverages filled in rPET bottles starting from different fractions of non-food PET in the recollection systems and taking worst-case cleaning efficiencies of super-clean recycling processes into account. On the basis of the Threshold of Toxicol. Concern (TTC) concept and Cramer classification tools, we present a risk assessment for potential exposure of the consumer to the identified contaminants as well as unidentified, potentially genotoxic substances in beverages. As a result, a fraction of 5% non-food PET in the recycling feed stream, which is very likely to occur in the usual recollection systems, does not pose any risk to the consumer. Our data show that fractions of up to 20%, which may sporadically be contained in certain, local recollection systems, would also not raise a safety concern.

Park, Min-Sun published the artcileEvaluating Docking Methods for Prediction of Binding Affinities of Small Molecules to the G Protein βγ Subunits, Synthetic Route of 72835-26-8, the main research area is docking mol G protein betagamma subunit.

Several studies have suggested that disrupting interactions of the G protein βγ subunits with downstream binding partners might be a valuable study for pharmaceutical development. Recently, small mols. have been found which bind to Gβγ with high apparent affinity in an ELISA, have demonstrated selective inhibition of interactions of Gβγ with downstream signaling partners, and have been shown to increase antinociceptive effects of morphine and inhibit inflammation in vivo. In this paper we examine several docking and scoring protocols for estimating binding affinities for a set of 830 ligands from the NCI diversity set to the Gβ1γ2 subunit and compared these with IC50s measured in a competition ELISA with a high-affinity peptidic ligand. The best-performing docking protocol used a consensus score and ensemble docking and resulted in a 6-fold enrichment of high-affinity compounds in the top-ranked 5% of the ligand data set.

Mostafa, Ahmed published the artcileFDA-approved drugs with potent in vitro antiviral activity against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, Application of 2-((5-Nitrothiazol-2-yl)carbamoyl)phenyl acetate, the main research area is FDA drug potent antiviral agent SARSCoV2; COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2; antiviral; drug repurposing; virtual screening.

(1) Background: Drug repositioning is an unconventional drug discovery approach to explore new therapeutic benefits of existing drugs. Currently, it emerges as a rapid avenue to alleviate the COVID-19 pandemic disease. (2) Methods: Herein, we tested the antiviral activity of anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs, commonly prescribed to relieve respiratory symptoms, against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the viral causative agent of the COVID-19 pandemic. (3) Results: Of these FDA-approved antimicrobial drugs, Azithromycin, Niclosamide, and Nitazoxanide showed a promising ability to hinder the replication of a SARS-CoV-2 isolate, with IC50 of 0.32, 0.16, and 1.29 μM, resp. We provided evidence that several antihistamine and anti-inflammatory drugs could partially reduce SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro. Furthermore, this study showed that Azithromycin can selectively impair SARS-CoV-2 replication, but not the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV). A virtual screening study illustrated that Azithromycin, Niclosamide, and Nitazoxanide bind to the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 (Protein data bank (PDB) ID: 6lu7) in binding mode similar to the reported co-crystalized ligand. Also, Niclosamide displayed hydrogen bond (HB) interaction with the key peptide moiety GLN: 493A of the spike glycoprotein active site. (4) Conclusions: The results suggest that Piroxicam should be prescribed in combination with Azithromycin for COVID-19 patients.

El Cadi, Hafssa published the artcilePhysico-chemical and phytochemical characterization of Moroccan wild jujube “”Zizyphus lotus (L.)”” fruit crude extract and fractions, Product Details of C11H22O2, the main research area is Zizyphus fruit physicochem property phytochem; Rhamnaceae; antioxidant activity; flavonoids; liquid chromatography; phenolic compounds; tannins.

Wild jujube “”Ziziphus lotus (L.) Desf.”” belongs to the Rhamnaceae family and is a traditionally herbaceous medicinal plant. It is very common in arid and semi-arid regions and is currently used for its antidiabetic, sedative, analgesic, anti-inflammatory and hypoglycemic activities. The aim of the present work was to characterize the physico-chem. properties and the phytochem. profile of wild jujube sample collected from the Guercif region, in order to determine the polyphenolic compounds and the antioxidant ability Analyses were carried out directly after the harvest for the determination of pH, refractive index, total soluble solid (°Brix), dry matter, sugar/acidity, total sugars, reducing sugars, as well as lipid and protein content. Results showed that the investigated fruit is acidic (pH 4.9 ± 0.23) and rich in sugars (80.2 g/100 g ± 3.81). The GC-MS anal. of the fruit revealed a number of volatile compounds, as many as 97, belonging to different chem. classes. The HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS anal. showed the presence of a total of 20 polyphenolic compounds in both EtOAc and MeOH-water extracts Among them, p-Hydroxybenzoic acid was the most abundant in the EtOAc extract (185.68μg/100 mg ± 0.5) whereas Quercetin 3-O-rhamnoside-7-O-glucoside was found in higher amounts in the MeOH-water extract (25.40μg/100 mg ± 0.5). These components have medical interest, notably for human nutrition, as well as health benefits and therapeutic effects. Therefore, Moroccan jujube “”Zizyphus lotus (L.)”” fruit may have potential industrial applications for food formulations.

Alberg, Irina published the artcileEffect of Core-Crosslinking on Protein Corona Formation on Polymeric Micelles, Recommanded Product: Dodecyl 2-methylacrylate, the main research area is crosslinked polyhydroxypropylmethacrylamide preparation nanoparticle blood protein zeta potential; asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation; core-crosslinking; polymer micelles; protein corona.

Most nanomaterials acquire a protein corona upon contact with biol. fluids. The magnitude of this effect is strongly dependent both on surface and structure of the nanoparticle. To define the contribution of the internal nanoparticle structure, protein corona formation of block copolymer micelles with poly(N-2-hydroxypropylmethacrylamide) (pHPMA) as hydrophilic shell, which are crosslinked-or not-in the hydrophobic core is comparatively analyzed. Both types of micelles are incubated with human blood plasma and separated by asym. flow field-flow fractionation (AF4). Their size is determined by dynamic light scattering and proteins within the micellar fraction are characterized by gel electrophoresis and quantified by liquid chromatog.-high-resolution mass spectrometry-based label-free quant. proteomics. The analyses reveal only very low amounts of plasma proteins associated with the micelles. Notably, no significant enrichment of plasma proteins is detectable for core-crosslinked micelles, while noncrosslinked micelles show a significant enrichment of plasma proteins, indicative of protein corona formation. The results indicate that preventing the reorganization of micelles (equilibrium with unimers) by core-crosslinking is crucial to reduce the interaction with plasma proteins.

Microbial ecol. is an integral part of an agricultural ecosystem and influences the quality of agricultural commodities. Microbial activity influences grapevine health and crop production, conversion of sugar to ethanol during fermentation, thus forming wine aroma and flavor. There are regionally differentiated microbial patterns in grapevines and must but how microbial patterns contribute to wine regional distinctiveness (terroir) at small scale (<100 km) is not well defined. Here we characterize fungal communities, yeast populations, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae populations during spontaneous fermentation using metagenomics and population genetics to investigate microbial distribution and fungal contributions to the resultant wine. We found differentiation of fungi, yeasts, and S. cerevisiae between geog. origins (estate/vineyard), with influences from the grape variety. Growth and dominance of S. cerevisiae during fermentation reshaped the fungal community and showed geog. structure at the strain level. Associations between fungal microbiota diversity and wine chems. suggest that S. cerevisiae plays a primary role in determining wine aroma profiles at a sub-regional scale. The geog. distribution at scales of less than 12 km supports that differential microbial communities, including the dominant fermentative yeast S. cerevisiae can be distinct in a local setting. These findings provide further evidence for microbial contributions to wine terroir, and perspectives for sustainable agricultural practices to maintain microbial diversity and optimize fermentation function to craft beverage quality.
