In the H-NMR spectra of a series of N-1 substituted 4-substituted-1H-1,2,3-triazoles that have been prepared, the lone heterocyclic ring hydrogen (H-5) appears as a singlet in all cases except those compounds that contain a 2-fluorophenyl moiety at Position 4. In those cases, H-5 is a doublet with J ~3.7 Hz.

Even in the absence of identifiable resistance mutations, this pathogen can tolerate lethal antibiotic doses through phenotypic strategies like biofilm formation and metabolic quiescence. In this study, we determined that maintains greater metabolic activity in the stationary phase compared to the model organism, , which has traditionally been used to study fluoroquinolone antibiotic tolerance.

PAH exposure has been linked to adverse birth outcomes and long-term neurological consequences. To understand genetic differences that could affect susceptibility following developmental exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, we exposed mice with variations in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor and the three CYP1 enzymes from gestational day 10 (G10) to weaning at postnatal day 25 (P25).

The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated this, with the closure of face-to-face support during lockdowns in the UK and globally. The aim of the 'Beyond the Margins' project was to develop, implement, and evaluate a face-face programme of support with, by and for people with direct experience of dementia who are on the margins of existing services and support.

Years of necessary administration and excessive application of antibiotics have selected for strains that are resistant to many of our currently available treatments. Due to the high costs and difficulty of developing new antibiotics, the emergence of resistant bacteria is outpacing the introduction of new drugs to fight them.
