The generation of singlet molecular oxygen ((1)O(2)) and hydroxyl radicals (HO*) during peroxidation of bopindolol in the presence of Co(II) ions was studied using electron spin resonance (ESR) and spectrophotometry methods. 2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-4-piperidone and 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-1-oxide were used as traps. The spectrophotometry determination of (1)O(2) was based on bleaching of p-nitrosodimethylaniline (RNO), which was caused by the product of the reaction of (1)O(2) with imidazole and was followed by monitoring the decrease in optical density at 440 nm. The effect of (1)O(2) quenchers and oxygen free radical scavengers on the ESR signal and the bleaching of RNO was studied. The data presented here give new evidence for generation of the reactive oxygen species during peroxidation of bopindolol.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the activation of photosensitizers (PSs) by visible laser light at the target site to catalyze the production of reactive oxygen species, resulting in tumor cell death and blood vessel closure. The efficacy of PDT depends on the PSs, the amount of oxygen, and the intensity of the excitation laser. PSs have been extensively researched, and great efforts have been made to develop an ideal photosensitizer.

, the causative agent of Legionnaires' disease, interacts in the environment with free-living amoebae that serve as replicative niches for the bacteria. Among these amoebae, is a natural host in water networks and a model commonly used to study the interaction between and its host. However, certain crucial aspects of this interaction remain unclear.

Objective: Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is one of the common complications in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). In order to find a method to monitor and treat the refractory DFU, the ferroptosis level in DFU and traumatic wounds (TW) was monitored and the difference between them was analyzed. At the same time, this study further analyzed the correlation of ferroptosis levels with DM severity and DFU's healing.

Nitrogen deficiency is a key constraint on crop yield. Cassava, the world's sixth-largest food crop and a crucial source of feed and industrial materials, can thrive in marginal soils, yet its yield is still significantly affected by limited nitrogen availability. Investigating cassava's response mechanisms to nitrogen scarcity is therefore essential for advancing molecular breeding and identifying nitrogen-efficient varieties.

Since water is both a product and a common reactant impurity in the (partial) methanol oxidation to methyl formate (MeFo) on gold, its effect on the isothermal selectivity to methyl formate was investigated under well-defined single-collision conditions employing pulsed molecular beam experiments and in situ IRAS measurements. Both a flat Au(111) and a stepped Au(332) surface were used as model catalysts to elucidate how water affects the reactivity of low-coordinated step sites as compared to (111) terrace sites employing a range of reaction conditions. The interactions of water with methanol/methoxy as well as with oxygen species are addressed.
