Proteus mirabilis has been identified as the third most frequent reason for catheter-associated urinary tract infections. The production of urease significantly enhances the force of catheter blockage caused by biofilm formation. Because biofilms are...
(1) Context: Cancer is still a major problem worldwide, and traditional therapies like radiation and chemotherapy often fail to alleviate symptoms because of side effects, systemic toxicity, and mechanisms of resistance. Beneficial anticancer effects...
The reactivity of the benzenedithiolate (bdt)-bridged complex [Fe2(CO)6(µ-bdt)] with arsine, stibine and phosphine ligands has been studied. The new mono- and disubstituted complexes [Fe2(CO)5(EPh3)(µ-bdt)] (E = As, 1; E = Sb 3) and [Fe2(...
Energy storage devices are essential for enhancing the effectiveness and sustainability of electrical energy. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are one of the most efficient energy storage solutions available. The choice of electrode materials plays a vit...
In this paper, we investigate the optical absorption and luminescence spectra of rare-earth garnets activated by the terbium (Tb3+) ion, as well as their magneto-optical properties. Crystals of terbium gallium garnet (TbGaG) and terbium aluminum garn...
The interest in inorganic nanostructured oxides is growing extensively, thanks to their remarkable features and their wide range of applications, which include (photo)catalysis [...]
A ferrocenium-catalyzed synthesis of trisubstituted tetrahydrofurans by dehydrative cyclization of diols is reported. Treatment of γ-phenyl-γ-butyrolactone or valerolactone with 2–3 equivalents of MeLi, n-BuLi, or PhLi yielded the c...
Ciprofloxacin (CPL) is an effective antibiotic against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. However, its use is limited by the emergence of multi-resistant strains. In this study, 8–15 nm manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4) nanoparticles, aminated and/or PEGylated,...
A series of mononuclear complexes, [Fe(L5)(bylim)](BPh4), where L5 represents a pentadentate Schiff base ligand, bylim is 1-benzyl-1-imidazole, and BPh4− is the tetraphenylborate anion, was synthesized. The determined crystal structures indicat...
Lithium–oxygen batteries have attracted considerable attention in recent years due to their high energy density and potential applications. However, the slow kinetics of the cathode reaction and the unstable products in lithium–oxygen bat...
