Article Synopsis
  • A novel, eco-friendly method for producing copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) has been developed using Priestia sp. bacteria, utilizing low-cost agro-industrial wastes instead of traditional glucose and copper ions.
  • Characterization techniques such as UV-visible spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction confirmed the formation and size of the CuNPs, with notable findings including a maximum concentration of 6.19 ppm and effective size reduction to 3.12 nm when using blackstrap sugar cane molasses.
  • The biosynthesized CuNPs displayed significant antibacterial properties against Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus, along with antitumor effects, indicating potential applications in medical and environmental fields.

Contact chemoreception is crucial for host plant choice selection in insects and is guided by input from gustatory receptor neurons, GRNs, housed in gustatory sensilla. In this study, the morphology and response spectra of individual tarsal sensilla on the fifth tarsomere of females of the moth were investigated. Two distinct morphological types of gustatory sensilla, TI and TII, were identified.

The reaction of prazolobenzothienopyrimidine-3-carbaldehyde 1 with thiocarbohydrazide afforded the Schiff's base 3. The latter compound reacted with some electrophilic reagents to give 1,2,4-triazoles 4-6 and 1,2,4-triazines 7-9. Treatment of compound 3 with 2-cyano-3,3-bis(methylthio)acrylonitrile gave the corresponding 5-amino-4-cyano-3-methylthiopyrazole derivative 11.
