Rapid shift in microbial community structure in a neutral hydrothermal hot spring from Costa Rica
(2020)
In this work, we characterize the geochemistry and microbial community of Bajo las Peñas, a neutral (pH 6.5-7.4), hot spring (T = 62.0-68.0°C) located near Turrialba Volcano, Costa Rica. The microbiota at its two sources ...
Propargylation of Carbonyl Compounds: An Efficient Method for the Synthesis of Homopropargyl Alcohols
(1998)
Controlled dilithiation of allene, with two equivalents of n-butytlithium, produces the propargyl dianion 5. The latter couple efficiently with carbonyl compounds to produce homopropargyl alcohols in high yields.
Desarrollo de sensores electroquímicos para la determinación de drogas sintéticas en fluidos biológicos y muestras de incautación
(2023-07-09)
La cantidad de nuevas sustancias psicoactivas, popularmente conocidas con términos como: drogas emergentes, drogas de diseño, drogas sintéticas o drogas recreativas, aumenta en el mercado global de las drogas cada año. El ...
Bile salts and derivatives: Rigid unconventional amphiphiles as dispersants, carriers and superstructure building blocks
(2015)
Steroidal surfactants like bile salts have a rigid amphiphilic structure significantly different from the typical head–tail one. As a result, these molecules show peculiar features in their self-assembly behavior and ...
Electrochemical biosensor for quantitative determination of fentanyl based on immobilized cytochrome c on multi-walled carbon nanotubes modified screen-printed carbon electrodes
(2022)
Fentanyl is a powerful synthetic opioid used to treat severe pain. New administration routes toward its illegal consumption
for recreational purposes pose a growing threat to public health, either due to misuse or abuse ...
Tetraaquabis(2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxine-2-carboxylato)calcium(II)
(2020)
The acid–base reaction of 1,4-benzodioxane 2-carboxylic acid with calcium carbonate furnished the centrosymmetric title compound, [Ca(C9H7O4)2(H2O)4], in which the metal ion is octahedrally coordinated by two monodentate ...
Baulamycins A and B, Broad-Spectrum Antibiotics Identified as Inhibitors of Siderophore Biosynthesis in Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus anthracis
(2014)
Siderophores are high-affinity iron chelators produced by microorganisms and frequently contribute to the virulence of human pathogens. Targeted inhibition of the biosynthesis of siderophores staphyloferrin B of Staphylococcus ...
Operando tracking of oxidation-state changes by coupling electrochemistry with time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy demonstrated for water oxidation by a cobalt-based catalysts film
(2021)
Transition metal oxides are promising electrocatalysts for water oxidation, i.e., the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which is
critical in electrochemical production of non-fossil fuels. The involvement of oxidation state ...
Bioassay-guided isolation of anti-inflammatory O-sulfated withanolides from Acnistus arborescens (Solanaceae)
(2019)
Bioassay-guided fractionation of Acnistus arborescens (Solanaceae) organic extract afforded two anti-inflammatory withanolides: 2,3-Dihydro-3β-O-sulfate withacnistin (1) and 2,3-Dihydro-3β-O-sulfate withaferin A (2) showing ...
Adipostatins E-J, new potent antimicrobials identified as inhibitors of coenzyme-A biosynthesis
(2020-01)
Phosphopantetheine is a key structural element in biological acyl transfer reactions found embedded within coenzyme A (CoA). Phosphopantothenoylcysteine synthetase (PPCS) is responsible for installing a cysteamine group ...
