Buffering agents modify the hydration landscape at charged interfaces.
Buffering agents are widely used to stabilise the pH of solutions in soft matter and biological sciences. They are typically composed of weak acids and bases mixed in an aqueous solution, and can interact electrostatically with charged surfaces such as biomembranes. Buffers can induce protein aggregation and structural modification of soft interfaces, but a molecular-level picture is still lack...
متن کاملPhase Coexistence in Single-Lipid Membranes Induced by Buffering Agents
Recent literature has shown that buffers affect the interaction between lipid bilayers through a mechanism that involves van der Waals forces, electrostatics, hydration forces and membrane bending rigidity. This letter shows an additional peculiar effect of buffers on the mixed chain 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) lipid bilayers, namely phase coexistence similar to what...
متن کاملFormation of Zwitterionic Fullerodendron Using a New DBN-Focal Dendron
A new poly(amidoamine) dendron having 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) at the focal point was synthesized. Interestingly, formation of zwitterionic fullerodendrons (λ(max) = 930 nm for C(60) and 795 nm for C(70)) were observed by Vis-NIR spectroscopy upon the reaction of C(60) or C(70) with the DBN-focal dendron. In particular, the C(70) anion was effectively stabilized by the site isolat...
متن کاملCryptolepine and development of new antimalarial agents
Natural product-derived drugs exemplified by quinine, isolated from South American Cinchona species and artemisinin discovered in China are of immense importance for the treatment of malaria. Although malaria parasites resistant to artemisinin have not yet been found in malaria patients, the need for new antimalarial agents remains. The burden of malaria is heaviest in Africa where over a milli...
