Bacterial biofilms exhibit remarkable resistance against conventional antibiotics and are capable of evading the humoral immune response. They account for nearly 80% of chronic infections in humans. Development of bacterial biofilms on medical implants results in their malfunctioning and subsequently leads to high mortality rates worldwide.

Because of their uniform and regular channels, adjustable pore size, large surface area, controllable wall composition, high hydrothermal stability, ease of functional modification, and good accessibility of larger reactant molecules, mesoporous siliceous SBA-15 is of excellent catalyst carrier that is highly versatile and has been used extensively to prepare a variety of supported catalysts with ideal catalytic properties. In this study, we report the synthesis, characterization, and catalytic application of Cu-Ag/ SBA-15 nanoalloy catalysts towards the control of microorganisms in drinking water has been reported. The Cu-Ag/SBA-15 nanoalloy catalysts with different molar mass ratio of copper to silver (Cu:Ag = 1: 0, 0.

Bacterial and viral RNA polymerases are promising targets for the development of new transcription inhibitors. One of the potential blockers of RNA synthesis is 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-1,-ethenoadenine (oxo-εA), a synthetic compound that combines two adenine modifications: 8-oxoadenine and 1,-ethenoadenine. In this study, we synthesized oxo-εA triphosphate (oxo-εATP) and showed that it could be incorporated by the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of SARS-CoV-2 into synthesized RNA opposite template residues A and G in the presence of Mn ions.

Background: Currently, there is limited research on the impact of abdominal infection on intestinal damage under microgravity conditions. Cordyceps polysaccharide (CPS), the main active ingredient of Cordyceps, has demonstrated various pharmacological effects, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory properties. Moxifloxacin (MXF) is a fourth-generation quinolone antibiotic that is believed to have a dual regulatory effect on immune system activation and suppression.
