Insights into the Theranostic Activity of Nonoxido V: Lysosome-Targeted Anticancer Metallodrugs.

Developing new anticancer agents can be useful, with the ability to diagnose and treat cancer worldwide. Previously, we focused on examining the effects of nonoxidovanadium(IV) complexes on insulin mimetic and cytotoxicity activity. In this study, in addition to the cytotoxic activity, we evaluated their bioimaging properties.

A compact ion source combining electron-impact and thermal ionization for multiple-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometry.

A compact ion source combining electron impact and thermal ionization has been developed and commissioned in two Multiple-Reflection Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometer (MR-TOF-MS) setups at the Fragment Separator Ion Catcher at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research, Darmstadt, Germany, and at TRIUMF's Ion Trap for Atomic and Nuclear science at TRIUMF Canada's particle accelerator center, Vancouver, Canada. The ion source is notable for its compact dimensions of 50 mm in height and 68 mm in diameter. The ion source is currently in daily operation at both facilities.

THz-EPR-based Magneto-Structural Correlations for Cobalt(II) Single-Ion Magnets With Bis-Chelate Coordination.

New cobalt(II)-based complexes with [NO] coordination formed by two bis-chelate ligands were synthesized and characterized by a multi-technique approach. The complexes possess an easy-axis anisotropy (D<0) and magnetic measurements show a field-induced slow relaxation of magnetization. The spin-reversal barriers, i.

Ga complexes of 8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxylic acid: Chemical speciation and biological activity.

The binding ability of 8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxylic acid (8-HQA) towards Ga has been investigated by ISEH (Ion Selective Electrode, glass electrode) potentiometric and UV/Vis spectrophotometric titrations in KCl at I = 0.2 mol dm and at T = 298.15 K.
