The influence of buffer pH on the electrophoretic behavior of 13 structurally related phenothiazines and determination of pK(a) values by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) were investigated. The results indicate that phenothiazines with a piperazine substituent behave quite differently from those with substituents having an aliphatic side chain or a piperidine moiety over the pH range studied. To separate these phenothiazines, it is preferable to select buffer pH in the range of 2.5-3.5. The pK(a) values of phenothiazines with three different types of substituents attached at the 10-position of the phenothiazine ring were determined. The determination of pK(a) values of phenothiazines allows us to rationalize the influence of buffer pH on the migration behavior of these compounds in CZE.

The hydrolysis rates of many organic chemicals are accelerated under alkaline conditions by the presence of hydroxide (HO), which is typically assumed to be the predominant species contributing to base-catalyzed hydrolysis in both natural waters and laboratory buffers used in standard protocols. In this study, we demonstrated that weak bases (e.g.

The ability to label synthetic oligonucleotides with fluorescent probes has greatly expanded their nanotechnological applications. To continue this expansion, it is essential to develop approachable, modular, and tunable fluorescent platforms. In this study, we present the synthesis and incorporation of an amino-formyl-thieno[3,2-]thiophene (AFTh) handle at the 5'-position of DNA oligonucleotides.

This study aimed to determine the chromatographic retention and dissociation/protonation constant (pK) values of lapatinib and tamoxifen, key drugs used in metastatic breast cancer treatment, at 37°C using both conventional and green high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods. Qualitative analysis was conducted on an XTerra C18 column (250 ×4.6 mm I.

Intrinsically disordered regions are found in most eukaryotic proteins and are enriched with positively and negatively charged residues. While it is often convenient to assume that these residues follow their model-compound p values, recent work has shown that local charge effects (charge regulation) can upshift or downshift side chain p values with major consequences for molecular function. Despite this, charge regulation is rarely considered when investigating disordered regions.

This study extends previous research, particularly focusing on patented scientific objects No. ID: PL 240 353 B1, investigating the physicochemical properties of the methyl 3-azido- and 3-amino-2,3-dideoxysaccharides with a nucleoside scaffold similar to 3'-azidothymidine (AZT). The study utilizes multiwavelength spectrophotometric and potentiometric methods to evaluate the ionization of the saccharide units in aqueous solutions.
