Dual Role of MoS Quantum Dots in a Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling Reaction.

Modern day research focuses on the development of greener and eco-friendlier protocols to fabricate biologically relevant targets with minimal waste generation. C-C bond formation reactions are of prime importance in this regard. In a typical photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction, three components are used, viz, catalyst, photosensitizer, and sacrificial amine donor.

Recapitulating Antioxidant and Antibacterial Compounds into a Package for Tissue Regeneration: Dual Function Materials with Synergistic Effect.

Oxidative damage and infection can prevent or delay tissue repair. Moreover, infection reinforces reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, which makes the wound's condition even worse. Therefore, the need for antioxidant and antibacterial agents is felt for tissue regeneration.

Early Diagnosis of Classic Homocystinuria in Kuwait through Newborn Screening: A 6-Year Experience.

Kuwait is a small Arabian Gulf country with a high rate of consanguinity and where a national newborn screening program was expanded in October 2014 to include a wide range of endocrine and metabolic disorders. A retrospective study conducted between January 2015 and December 2020 revealed a total of 304,086 newborns have been screened in Kuwait. Six newborns were diagnosed with classic homocystinuria with an incidence of 1:50,000, which is not as high as in Qatar but higher than the global incidence.

Benzimidazole analogues as efficient arsenals in war against methicillin-resistance staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and its SAR studies.

Small molecule based inhibitors development is a growing field in medicinal chemistry. In recent years, different heterocyclic derivatives have been designed to counter the infections caused by multi-drug resistant bacteria. Indeed, small molecule inhibitors can be employed as an efficient antibacterial agents with different mechanism of action.
