Diastereoselective ZnCl-Mediated Joullié-Ugi Three-Component Reaction for the Preparation of Phosphorylated -Acylaziridines from 2-Azirines.

We disclose a direct approach to the diastereoselective synthesis of phosphorus substituted -acylaziridines based on a one-pot ZnCl-catalyzed Joullié-Ugi three-component reaction of phosphorylated 2-azirines, carboxylic acids and isocyanides. Hence, this robust protocol offers rapid access to an array of -acylaziridines in moderate-to-good yields and up to 98:2 dr for substrates over a wide scope. The relevance of this synthetic methodology was achieved via a gram-scale reaction and the further derivatization of the nitrogen-containing three-membered heterocycle.

Development, Optimisation and Validation of a Novel Multiplex Real-Time PCR Method for the Simultaneous Detection of spp., and .

The enteric protozoan parasites spp., and are-to various extents-contributors to the burden of gastrointestinal illness in high-income countries. Detection of these pathogens by microscopy examination is challenging because of the limited sensitivity and need for specific staining procedures.

[Treatment protocol for COVID-19 in patients with and without an indication for hospital admission].

SARS-CoV-2 infection causes a wide spectrum of symptoms with varying degrees of severity, from asymptomatic cases or cases in the form of self-limiting influenza-like illness to cases of rapidly progressing respiratory distress syndrome due to an anomalous immune system response in the form of a cytokine storm. Thrombotic complications are also common. Multiple antiviral treatments have been tested in COVID-19 without favorable outcomes.

[Viral pneumonia. COVID-19 pneumonia].

Viruses are becoming more and more important as etiological agents of pneumonia, mainly due to improvements in diagnostic techniques. At present, they account for approximately one-third of community-acquired pneumonia cases. They tend to occur in children and elderly patients, causing anything from mild cases to severe cases which require intubation and intensive care.
