Background: Chlamydia Trachomatis (CT) is an obligate intracellular bacteria, that requires living cells to replicate itself and is responsible for lower urinary tract disease in men and women. It can cause urethritis, epididymitis, orchitis and complications such as chronic prostatitis in men. Chlamydia infections may also directly affect male fertility by damaging the sperm, because sperm par...

A new Schiff base ligand (L) obtained by the condensation reaction of N-acetylaceto-otoluidineand 2-aminopropanoic acid (an amino acid), is used to synthesize four mononuclearcomplexes of [MLCl] and [ML2] types (where M = Cu(II) and Zn(II); L = Schiff base) bykeeping the metal and ligand ratio as 1:1 and 1:2 respectively. This ligand and its complexeshave been characterized on the basis of diff...

In this study at first , an azo dye, 2,7- naphthalenediol, 2-[(4-Bromophenyl)azo (BPAND) as a ligand has been synthesized by addition of p-Bromoaniline to the modified montomorillonite K10 clay. This ligand was characterized using 1H-NMR, UV-Vis and IR spectroscopies. Subsequently, its interaction with calf thymus deoxyribonucleicacid ,ct-DNA was investigated in 5 mM phosphate buffer solution, ...

This paper encourages understanding a non-invasive technology—the “Liquid biopsy”, including circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and DNA (ct DNA) technology, that can help diagnose early cancers, cancer relapse, resistance to chemotherapy. reviews various CTCs ct studies in the literature about their applications gynecological cancers. Hopefully, further translational research gynecology will enable...

two newly-created water-soluble complexes of palladium(ii)/platinum(ii)-dithiocarbamate, [pd/pt(phen)(pyr-dtc)]no3 (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and pyr-dtc = pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate) were synthesized. also, their chemical characteristics are reported in the current research paper. in these complexes, the dithiocarbamato ligand coordinates to pt(ii) or pd(ii) center with two sulfur atoms as bi...

the aggregation behavior of anionic cobalt(ii) 4,4′,4ʺ,4‴-tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine, [co(tspc)4-] was studied at its various concentrations and different ionic strengths using optical absorption and resonance light scattering (rls) spectroscopies in 5 mm phosphate buffer, ph 7.0 at 25 °c. the results show no aggregation behavior at concentration range of 5.1 × 10-6-7.5 × 10-5 m. also, the ...

The ability of small molecules to perturb the natural structure and dynamics of nucleic acids is intriguing and has potential applications in cancer therapeutics. This work reports the synthesis, characterization, cytotoxicity and DNA-binding studies of two cytotoxic and intercalative [M(bpy)(pyrr-dtc)]NO3 complexes (where M = Pt(II) and Pd(II), bpy = 2,2´-bipyridine and pyrr-dtc = p...
