[Forensic assessment of meteorological conditions as risk factors of sudden death from arterial hypertension].

Arterial hypertension is a disease that significantly increases the risk of sudden death in different age groups. It is of high scientific interest to study the relationship of arterial hypertension manifestations with different weather conditions. The article provides a review of literature data on the variability of arterial hypertension course depending on meteorological conditions as a risk factor for sudden death.

Effect of Pretreatment with Acids on the N-Functionalization of Carbon Nanofibers Using Melamine.

Nowadays, N-functionalized carbon nanomaterials attract a growing interest. The use of melamine as a functionalizing agent looks prospective from environmental and cost points of view. Moreover, the melamine molecule contains a high amount of nitrogen with an atomic ratio C/N of 1/2.

Chelation of Zinc with Biogenic Amino Acids: Description of Properties Using Balaban Index, Assessment of Biological Activity on Cellular Biosensor, Influence on Biofilms and Direct Antibacterial Action.

The complexation of biogenic molecules with metals is the widespread strategy in screening for new pharmaceuticals with improved therapeutic and physicochemical properties. This paper demonstrates the possibility of using simple QSAR modeling based on topological descriptors for chelates study. The presence of a relationship between the structure (J) and lipophilic properties (logP) of zinc complexes with amino acids, where two molecules coordinate the central atom through carboxyl oxygen and amino group nitrogen, and thus form a double ring structure, was predicted.
