Aspartic protease analogues synthesized by covering the surface of silica gel with carboxyl groups effectively hydrolyzed hemoglobin and gamma-globulin. It is proposed that the carboxyl group is involved in both complexation of the protein substrate and the catalytic cleavage of the peptide bonds of the complexed proteins.

Magnesium and silicon recovery from chrysotile asbestos waste of the deposit Zhitikara, Kazakhstan.
Sci Rep
December 2024
Republican State Enterprise National Center for Complex Processing of Mineral Raw Materials of the Republic of Kazakhstan, RSE "NC CPMRM RK", Zhandosov st., 67, Almaty, 050036, Kazakhstan.
Waste generated during asbestos manufacturing contains substantial quantities of iron, nickel, magnesium, and silicon. The existing techniques for processing chrysotile-asbestos waste (CAW) cannot fully recover these elements. Therefore this paper presents a hydrometallurgical method for processing the CAW of the Zhitikara deposit in the Kostanay region of Kazakhstan.

Background: Flavonoids are among the most important compounds found in plants, since laboratory studies have shown them to be a daily requirement in human diets due to their various health benefits. Therefore, this study focused on extracting, purifying, and measuring the antioxidant activity of the flavonoid quercetin, which is widely found in plants and possesses a variety of biological activities, from different plant sources.
Methods: The extraction of quercetin was performed using several methods (chemical, physical, and enzymatic) and several extraction solutions (water, ethanol, and chloroform) from several plants (spinach, dill, Onion Skin, , sumac, digalkhasab chemri, and leelwi chemri).

The FDA "Food and Drug Administration" recently approved a novel co-crystal formulation of Celecoxib (CEX) and Tramadol (TRM) for the treatment of adults suffering from moderate to severe pain in several conditions. This novel combination has advantages over co-administration of the two drugs individually as better patient compliance, synergism and lower therapeutic cost. This work presents the first "High performance Thin Layer Chromatographic" (HPTLC) quantitative analytical technique for CEX and TRM simultaneous assay in bulk, their new dosage form and plasma.

Transition-metal-loaded carbon-based electrocatalysts are promising alternatives to conventional precious metal electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in high-performance zinc-air batteries. However, efficiently doping transition-metal single atoms onto carbon-based frameworks is a significant challenge. Herein, an improved template-sacrificing method combining a two-step carbonization process is proposed to fabricate Cu/Co diatomic sites coanchored on a three-dimensional nitrogen-doped carbon-based framework.

The controlled formation and stabilization of nanoparticles is of fundamental relevance for materials science and key to many modern technologies. Common synthetic strategies to arrest growth at small sizes and prevent undesired particle agglomeration often rely on the use of organic additives and require non-aqueous media and/or high temperatures, all of which appear critical with respect to production costs, safety, and sustainability. In the present work, we demonstrate a simple one-pot process in water under ambient conditions that can produce particles of various transition metal carbonates and sulfides with sizes of only a few nanometers embedded in a silica shell, similar to particles derived from more elaborate synthesis routes, like the sol-gel process.
