Recent Advances in Design, Synthesis, and Biological Activity Studies of 1,3-Selenazoles.

The review examines recent advances in the design and synthesis of 1,3-selenazole derivatives since 2000. Various synthetic approaches to 1,3-selenazoles and reaction conditions are discussed. The beneficial properties of 1,3-selenazoles, especially their biological activity, are emphasized.

Genome sequences of five bacteriophages that belong to the genus .

We describe the genomes of five lytic myophages, therapeutic candidates, that belong to the family and genus . The genomes ranged from 165,574 to 169,768 bp, with ca. 40% GC content, contained 289-300 coding sequences, had 15-16 tRNA genes, and no terminal repeats.

Effects of mercury and magnetic fields on the activity of proteinases and glycosidases in the intestine of common carp Cyprinus carpio.

Aquatic ecosystems are increasingly affected by anthropogenic pollution, including heavy metals like mercury, which accumulate in organisms and cause harmful effects. At the same time, human activities such as industrial operations and the use of electric power lines also alter the magnetic background in natural water bodies. However, the interaction between mercury exposure and magnetic fields remains poorly understood.

Nanoconfinement effects on the dynamics of an ionic liquid-based electrolyte probed by multinuclear NMR.

The measurement of ion diffusivity inside nanoporous materials by Pulsed-Field Gradient (PFG) NMR is not an easy task due to enhanced NMR relaxation. Here, we employed multinuclear (H, P, and Li) NMR spectrometry and diffusometry to probe ion dynamics of a fluorine-free battery electrolyte comprising the [P][MEEA] ionic liquid (IL) and LiMEEA salt in a 7 : 3 molar ratio, confined in three different nanoporous SiO glasses with pore diameters of 3.7, 7 and 98 nm.
