Correction for 'Molybdenum-maltolate as a molybdopterin mimic for bioinspired oxidation reaction' by Swapnil S. Pawar , , 2024, , 5770-5774, https://doi.org/10.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA novel -dioxomolybdenum(VI)-maltolate [MoO(Mal)] (1) is prepared as a stable molybdopterin model for the biomimetic catalysis of the oxidation of hypoxanthine in acetonitrile-water at room temperature. Compound 1 efficiently catalyzes the oxidation reaction of toluene, diphenylmethane, and styrene. Cyto- and oral-toxicity studies suggest its tremendous potential for application as a molybdenum supplement.

Here, we report the first-in-human series of major esophageal resections performed using a next-generation tele-operated robotic surgical system in a single center. Robot-assisted TTE was performed using the Versius Surgical System by a single surgeon to assess the robotic system's ability to achieve tumor clearance (measured by R0 resection rates) whilst reducing anastomotic leakage rates.

As teeth become fragile after a root canal therapy, this study was designed to compare in vitro the fracture resistance of root-filled and restored teeth with traditional endodontic access cavity, conservative endodontic access cavity (CEC), ninja endodontic access cavity (NEC), and truss endodontic access cavity (TEC).
Materials And Methods: Control (intact teeth) and traditional endodontic access cavity as well as CEC, NEC, and TEC groups were each given a new human mandibular molar that was freshly removed.
Endodontists have a major problem when dealing with perforating internal resorption, which is an uncommon condition in permanent teeth. Success in treating a resorbed root can only be achieved if the root is properly diagnosed, removed, and treated. Cone-beam computed tomography was used to locate the resorptive lesion and assess its severity (CBCT).

High genetic variation was detected in the parameters namely chlrophyll a, Chlrophyll b, total chlorophyll, carotenoids, total anthocyanin content, gamma-oryzanols, total phenolics content, superoxide dismutase, catalase, guaicol peroxidase, total soluble sugar, total protein, seed vigour index -I and seed vigour index -II. Strong positive correlation of seed vigour index II was observed with amylose content, total anthocyanin content, catalase, total phenolic content and total flavonoid content while a negative association was observed for gamma-oryzanol content.
