a simple, rapid and efficient dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction by use of ionic liquid (il-dllme)method, followed by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas) was developed for the preconcentrationand determination of palladium in water samples. in this method, an appropriate mixture of acetone and octylmethyl imidazolium hexafluorophosphate was injected rapidly into the aqueous sample...

The aim of this work was to measure and compare the binding constants of antibody immunoglobulin G (IgG) to bacterial cell wall proteins, streptococcal protein G and Staphylococcus aureus protein A, using an acoustic wave sensor. Devices, which used shear-horizontal acoustic waves propagating in a waveguide configuration at 108 and 155 MHz, were employed in the detection of apparent IgG binding...

Liquid crystals (LCs) were used to amplify and transduce receptor-mediated binding of proteins at surfaces into optical outputs. Spontaneously organized surfaces were designed so that protein molecules, upon binding to ligands hosted on these surfaces, triggered changes in the orientations of 1- to 20-micrometer-thick films of supported LCs, thus corresponding to a reorientation of approximatel...

The ensemble of forces that stabilize protein structure and facilitate biological function are intimately linked with the ubiquitous aqueous environment of living systems. As a consequence, biomolecular activity is highly sensitive to the interplay of solvent-protein interactions, and deviation from the native conditions, for example by exposure to increased thermal energy or severe dehydration...

in this paper we discuss about tenacity and its properties in stability calculation. we indicate relationships between tenacity and connectivity, tenacity and binding number, tenacity and toughness. we also give good lower and upper bounds for tenacity.

A new click chemistry generated artificial metallonuclease is reported in the Research Article by Andrew Kellett et al. (e202305759). The oxidative DNA damaging properties of a polynuclear copper binding ligand called TC-Thio demonstrated. Copper-TC-Thio binds minor groove genomic and promotes damage via superoxide linked mechanism. inset picture shows ions, bound to ligand, melting into duplex...

A new low-energy pathway is reported for the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to formate and syngas at low overpotentials, utilizing a reactive ionic liquid as the solvent. The superbasic tetraalkyl phosphonium ionic liquid [P66614][124Triz] is able to chemisorb CO2 through equimolar binding of CO2 with the 1,2,4-triazole anion. This chemisorbed CO2 can be reduced at silver electrodes at overpo...
