In order to show the advantages and limitations of organic electrosynthesis in the total synthesis of a natural product, one of the promising green chemistry techniques in organic chemistry, the synthesis of N-isobutyl-(2E,6Z)-dodecadienamide (3) was undertaken. Chemical and electrochemical routes that use the same intermediates were used to carry out the syntheses. Four reactions were compared from a green chemistry point of view in the synthesis of 3: (a) alcohol to aldehyde oxidation, (b) the Horner– ...

To the Editor: Manioc or cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a tuber consumed worldwide but mainly in South America, Africa, and Asia. It is a main source of carbohydrates for more than 800 million persons in these regions. This root is usually consumed boiled or fried and can be used to prepare breads, cakes, and pastries. A major product of manioc is starch, a fine white powder extracted from pulped manioc roots, which is used as a substitute for potato starch and cornstarch and is important ...

ABSTRACT Pneumococcal surface protein C (PspC) is an important candidate for a cost-effective vaccine with broad coverage against pneumococcal diseases. Previous studies have shown that Streptococcus pneumoniae is able to bind to both human factor H (FH), an inhibitor of complement alternative pathway, and human secretory IgA (sIgA) via PspC. PspC was classified into 11 groups based on variations of the gene. In this work, we used three PspC fragments from different groups (PspC3, PspC5, and PspC8) ...

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and chronic constipation (CC) are common functional bowel disorders that are among the most frequent reasons for referral to a gastroenterologist. Diagnosis and management of these conditions can be challenging for both the clinician and the patient for a number of reasons. Diagnosis can be complicated by the lack of a specific diagnostic test and the fact that IBS and CC are multisymptomatic conditions, whereas management can be suboptimal, because the conditions are ...

Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated enteropathy, triggered by dietary wheat gluten and similar proteins of barley and rye in genetically susceptible individuals. The etiology of this disorder is complex, involving both environmental and genetic factors. The major genetic risk factor for CD is represented by HLA-DQ genes, which account for approximately 40% of the genetic risk; however, only a small percentage of carriers develop the disease. Gluten is the main environmental factor responsible ...

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a pathogen of great importance worldwide. We have previously described the efficacy of a nasal vaccine composed of the pneumococcal surface protein A and the whole-cell pertussis vaccine as an adjuvant against a pneumococcal invasive challenge in mice. Spread of bacteria to the bloodstream was probably prevented by the high levels of systemic antibodies induced by the vaccine, but bacteria were only cleared from the lungs 3 weeks later, indicating that local immune responses ...

Significance Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease leading to motor neuron degeneration and progressive paralysis. Other studies have revealed defects in skeletal muscle even in the absence of motor neuron anomalies, focusing on acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) and supporting the so-called “dying-back” hypothesis. Our results indicate that the endocannabinoid palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) reduces the rundown of AChRs currents in ALS muscle and can clinically improve patients’ pulmonary ...

Dimensionally Stable Anodes (DSA) of Sb2O5-doped Ti/RuO2-ZrO2 are prepared by the Pechini method to perform the degradation of indigo carmine (IC) under conditions similar to textile wastewater effluents. XRD results along with Rietveld refinement reveal that the co-deposited phases on the DSA exhibit a tetragonal crystal structure (P4/mmm) for RuO2 and monoclinic structure (P2/m) for ZrO2. Degradation tests conducted in solutions containing 0.64 mM IC and 0.05 M NaCl using a filter-press reactor (FM01- ...

X-ray diffraction for ternary catalysts reveal co-deposited phases consisting of a tetragonal crystalline structure (P42/mnm) for RuO2, and two phases corresponding to monoclinic (P2/m) and tetragonal (P42/mnm) crystalline structures for ZrO2.

A Sb2O5 doped-Ti/RuO2-ZrO2 (Ti/SbRuZr) electrode is used to perform the abatement of ciprofloxacin (CIP, C17H18FN3O3). The catalyst was prepared using the Pechini method, and subsequently characterized by XRD, SEM-EDS, EIS and CV. The microstructural analysis of Ti/SbRuZr shows the formation of RuO2 (P42/mnm) and ZrO2 (P2/m) crystalline phases, with an average crystallite size about twice (61.2 nm) lower than Ti/RuO2 (109 nm). Additionally, SEM micrographs reveal that ZrO2 affects the morphological features ...

Single Ti/RuO2 and Ti/IrO2 catalysts were prepared to compare their morphologies and electrochemical behavior against the binary DSA.
