In this study, a series of N-functionalized benzimidazole silver(I) complexes were prepared and characterized by FT-IR, H, C{H} NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Synthesized N-benzylbenzimidazole silver(I) complexes were evaluated for their antimicrobial activities against bacteria Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and the fungal strains Candida albicans and Candida glabrata. The results indicated that N-alkylbenzimidazole silver(I) complexes exhibited good antimicrobial activity compared to N-alkylbenzimidazole derivatives.

- The study focuses on the cultivated strawberry, which has been the subject of increased genetic research, specifically looking at sucrose metabolism in two varieties: 'Rubygem' and 'Fortuna'.
- The research examines fruit development stages (red, pink, green, and white), finding red fruits contained the highest sugar content while green fruits had the lowest; overall sugar levels were similar between varieties.
- The study reveals a positive correlation between sugar content and invertase enzyme activity, but a negative correlation between enzyme activity and gene expression, with the lowest invertase activities observed in green fruits.
Paranasal sinus tumors are a rare type of cancer. Most of these tumors are of epithelial origin and 80% of them are maxillary sinus squamous cell carcinoma. The WNT signaling pathway is an essential embryonic regulatory pathway known to play an important role in many cancers, including head and neck cancers.
