Partial purification and biochemical characterization of an extremely thermo- and pH-stable esterase with great substrate affinity

Presence of 10% (v/v) acetonitrile in the reaction medium indicated that purified enzyme was strongly inhibited. It was also detected that some metal ions affected enzyme activity at different rates. As a result, it was observed that esterase from Geobacillus sp. DF20 has extreme temperature and pH stabilities. Therefore, the stability and Km value of the enzyme make this study interesting when compared with the literature.

Adsorption of the urea molecule on the B12N12 nanocage

The HOMO–LUMO gap of the nanocage does not change significantly upon urea adsorption, while the Fermi level is dramatically changed from −4.27 eV in the pristine nanocage to upper energies upon urea adsorption. The geometric structure, adsorption energy, solvation effect, charge transfer, and frequency analyses of the urea adsorption on the nanocage models showed that the urea molecule could be firmly adsorbed by the nanocage and the nanocage could be a potential efficient adsorbent for the adsorption of urea.

Synthesis, spectral characterisation, electrochemical, and fluorescence studies of biologically active novel Schiff base complexes derived from E-4-(2-hydroxy-3- methoxybenzlideneamino)-N-(pyrimidin-2-yl)benzenesulfonamide

The reasonable shifts in FT-IR and NMR spectral signals of the complexes with respect to the free ligand confirm good coordination of the Schiff-base ligand with the metal through imine nitrogen and oxygen atoms of Schiff base moiety. The Schiff-base ligand and the complexes were screened for antimicrobial activity and fluorescent behaviour. From the analytical and spectral data, the stoichiometry was found to be 1:2 for all the complexes. An octahedral structure was proposed. All the complexes were found to be active against bacteria and fungi.

In vitro effects of pesticide exposure on the activity of the paraoxonase-1 enzyme from sheep liver microsomes

The organophosphate target enzyme paraoxonase-1 (PON1) has been extensively studied in toxicology. Pesticides are organophosphate compounds that are commonly used in agriculture. They are also used as nerve gases, such as sarin and soman. Therefore, the effects of these compounds on enzymatic activity are well known. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro effects of fenoxaprop-p-ethyl, lambda cyhalothrin, imidacloprid, and dichlorvos pesticides on sheep liver microsomal PON1.

Solvent extraction of praseodymium(III) from acidic nitrate medium using Cyanex 921 and Cyanex 923 as extractants in kerosene

On the basis of slope analysis, the compositions of the extracted species were formulated as Pr(NO3)3.2Cyanex 921 and Pr(NO3)3.Cyanex 923. The percentage of extraction of Pr(III) was found to decrease with increases in temperature. The standard enthalpy and entropy changes were negative owing to the complexation with decrease in randomness without a compensatory disruption of the hydration sphere of the metal ion. Mineral acids like hydrochloric acid (0.008 M) and sulfuric acid (0.03/0.02 M) were effective for the stripping of Pr(III) from the loaded organic phase with 0.5 M Cyanex 921/1 M Cyanex 923.

PW12-APTES@MCF: effective nanosized mesoporous composites for the oxidation of benzyl alcohols

The surface of mesocellular silica foam (MCF) was modified by grafting 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane (APTES) to have a positive charge, and thus to provide sites for the immobilization of H3PW12O40(PW12). This modified nanosized mesoporous silica (PW12-APTES@MCF) was characterized by FTIR, XRD, BET, and TEM. XRD and adsorption–desorption analysis shows that the mesostructure of silica remains intact after various modifications, while the spectral technique shows the successful grafting of the neat PW12 inside the porous silica support.

Effect of boric acid on corrosion and electrochemical performance of Pb-0.08% Ca-1.1% Sn alloys containing Cu, As, and Sb impurities for manufacture of grids of lead-acid batteries

Impedance measurement was used to quantify the amounts of PbSO4 and PbO in the initial stage of the oxidation. H3BO3 decreased the positive grid corrosion of all alloys, while impurities increased it. Although impurities increased the self-discharge during constant current discharge, H3BO3 was found to decrease it, except for the alloy containing the 3 impurities and the Cu-containing alloy. Under open-circuit conditions, H3 BO3 increased significantly the self-discharge rate, but impurities were found to suppress it.

Study of the interaction between glucosamine hydrochloride and sodium dodecylsulphate micelles using conductometric, isothermal calorimetry, zeta-potential titrations, and NMR NOESY

In procedure 1, micellisation study by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) showed that the increase in Gl + concentration reduces the cmc and the micellisation enthalpy. Increasing of the micellisation entropy was also observed, suggesting desolvation of micellar structures as a consequence of electrostatic attraction with Gl+ ions. In procedure 2, titration of Gl+ with SDS solution at 7.7 mM showed the existence of 3 distinct ranges of glucosamine/SDS concentrations, which were attributed to I) Gl+ inducing micellisation, II) neutralisation of the micelles, and III) competition between the ions themselves in the micellar surface.

Synthesis and X-ray powder diffraction, electrochemical, and genotoxic properties of a new azo-Schiff base and its metal complexes

These mononuclear Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) complexes of the ligand were prepared and their structures were proposed by elemental analysis, and infrared and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy; the proton NMR spectrum of the mbH ligand was also recorded. The azo-azomethine ligand, mbH, behaves as a bidentate ligand coordinating through the nitrogen atom of the azomethine (–CH=N–) and the oxygen atom of the phenolic group. Elemental analyses indicated that the metal:ligand ratio was 1:2 in the metal chelates. Powder X-ray diffraction parameters suggested a monoclinic system for the mbH ligand and its Ni(II), Cu(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) complexes, and an orthorhombic system for the Mn(II) complex.
