Cost-effective Phytohormone Extraction of Sargassum swartzii from the Persian Gulf Using Magnetic Ionic Liquid.

Introduction: Algae extracts are utilized as biofertilizers instead of chemical ferti-lizers in agriculture. Further, algae are known to possess a high content of plant hormones, such as gibberellin, salicylic acid, abscisic acid, and brassinosteroids.

Objective: The main objective of this study was to increase the extraction yield and simulta-neously extract hormones required for plant growth from Sargassum swartzii using Magnetic recoverable ionic liquid (IL).

Exploring the combined impact of cisplatin and copper-cysteamine nanoparticles through Chemoradiation: An in-vitro study.

Copper-Cysteamine nanoparticles (Cu-Cy NPs) have emerged as promising radiosensitizers in cancer treatment. This study aims to investigate the combined therapeutic effect of these nanoparticles and cisplatin using a clinical linear accelerator to enhance the efficacy of chemoradiation therapy for cervical cancer. Following successful synthesis and characterization of Cu-Cy NPs, the cytotoxicity effect of these nanoparticles and cisplatin in various concentrations was evaluated on HeLa cancer cells, individually and in combination.

Seaweed-derived phenolic compounds as diverse bioactive molecules: A review on identification, application, extraction and purification strategies.

Nano-Hydroxyapatite Isolation and Characterisation of from the Persian Gulf.

The study focuses on the preparation and characterisation (physicochemical and mechanical) of hydroxyapatite [Ca(PO)(OH)] (HA) from sea urchin, . Therefore, nano-sized HA prepared from sea urchin shells were collected from beaches of the Persian Gulf in Iran. Sea urchin shells were found a source of calcium carbonate in the form of aragonite (calcite) that crystallised in an organic matrix.

Occurrence of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli pathotypes from raw milk and unpasteurized buttermilk by culture and multiplex polymerase chain reaction in southwest Iran.

Background: In developing countries including Iran, there are limited data on diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) contamination in milk and unpasteurized buttermilks. This study aimed to determine the occurrence of DEC pathotypes by culture and multiplex polymerase chain reaction (M-PCR) in some dairy products from southwest Iran.

Methods And Results: In this cross-sectional study (September to October 2021), 197 samples (87 unpasteurized buttermilk and 110 raw cow milk) were collected from dairy stores of Ahvaz, southwest Iran.

Non-Covalent Supported of l-Proline on Graphene Oxide/Fe₃O₄ Nanocomposite: A Novel, Highly Efficient and Superparamagnetically Separable Catalyst for the Synthesis of Bis-Pyrazole Derivatives.

A superparamagnetic graphene oxide/Fe₃O₄/l-proline nano hybrid that was obtained from the non-covalent immobilization of l-proline on graphene oxide/Fe₃O₄ nanocomposite was used as a new magnetically separable catalyst for the efficient synthesis of 4,4'-(arylmethylene)(1-pyrazol-5-ol) derivatives. The prepared heterogeneous catalyst was characterized using FTIR, TGA, DTG, XRD, TEM, SEM, and elemental analysis techniques. Short reaction times (5-15 min), excellent yields (87-98%), and simple experimental procedure with an easy work-up are some of the advantages of the introduced catalyst.

One-Pot Green Regioselesctive Synthesis of γ-Lactones from Epoxides and Ketene Silyl Acetals Using 1,3-Dimethylimidazolium Fluoride as a Recoverable Metal-Free Catalyst.

In a straightforward and fast protocol, a mixture of 1,3-dimethylimidazolium fluoride ([DMIM]F) and 1-butylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Hbim]BF₄) efficiently catalyzed the reaction of epoxides with ketene silyl acetals (KSA) to give various γ-lactones under metal-free conditions. Diverse kinds of the desired γ-lactones were directly prepared with high regioselectivities and yields in a simple one-pot procedure using [DMIM]F as Si-O bond activator and [Hbim]BF₄ as solvent and acidic ionic liquid catalyst. The ionic liquid mixture was recovered and reused three times and no loss in its activity was observed.

A catalytic approach to the metal-free reaction of epoxides with ketene silyl acetals for accessing γ-lactones.

The first catalytic approach to the nucleophilic addition of silyl ketene acetals 2 to epoxides 1 is reported. The defined protocol is metal-free using tetrabutylammonioum fluoride as the catalyst. It works in a very efficient manner under solvent-free conditions (SolFC) allowing γ-lactones 3 to be directly obtained with high regioselectivities and yields.

Macroporous polymer supported azide and nanocopper (I): efficient and reusable reagent and catalyst for multicomponent click synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted-1H-1,2,3-triazoles from benzyl halides.

Macroporous polymer supported nanoparticles of copper(I) iodide catalyst and macroporous polymer supported azide reagent were used to simplify the synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted-1H-1,2,3-triazoles from various benzyl halides following the green chemistry principles. This new one-pot protocol facilitates the workup of the reaction and provides the products in short times and at high yields. Heterogeneous catalyst and reagent can be reloaded and reused at least for 5 runs without significant decrease in the yields.
