AI Article Synopsis
- Researchers developed new manganese (Mn) chelates with various functional groups and tested their radioprotective and antioxidant properties on chick embryo cell cultures.
- The cells were exposed to gamma irradiation or hydrogen peroxide, and the addition of Mn-chelates significantly increased cell survival compared to precursor compounds.
- The results suggest these Mn-chelates have potential as effective radioprotectors, warranting further investigation in living organisms.
Article Abstract
Earlier we have synthesized new Mn-chelates (Mn-compexes of ethyl ethers of salicyliden-D, L-tyrosine, -gamma-amino butyric acid and -D, L-tryptophan) bearing several free functional groups. The radioprotective and antioxidant activity of these compounds were tested on the secondary cultures of chick embryo cells. To this end the cells in vitro were gamma-irradiated with 60Co at the doses 40 and 60 Gy or treated with H2O2 at the concentration 3 mmol/l, the new Mn-chelates were added into the cultures, and the number of survived cells was determined in 24 hours. It was revealed that all the new Mn-chelates at micromolar concentrations (from 40 to 10 mumol/l) but not their precursors (Mn-acetate and ethyl ethers of salicyliden-aminoacids) effectively protect the cells from lethal effect of both gamma-irradiation and H2O2. Mn-chelates tested are considered as promising potential radioprotectors that effect seems to be reasonable to study in vivo.

MgO surface makes it easy to introduce a certain amount of oxygen vacancy and can enhance catalytic reaction activity. Besides, as a silicoaluminate mineral material, halloysite nanotube (HNT) has a unique tubular structure. In this paper, the HNTs@MgO composite was successfully synthesized based on natural clay material HNTs as a carrier, and the CTL sensor based on HNTs@MgO was successfully developed for the rapid determination of ether in air.

is a human pathogen responsible for a variety of diseases, from skin, soft tissue, and lung infections to severe cases such as meningitis, infective endocarditis, and bacteremia. The high level of antibiotic resistance in these pathogens, exemplified by methicillin-resistant (MRSA), necessitates the development of effective antibiotics. Thus, this work introduced the chemical synthesis of ethyl 3,5-dibromoorsellinate, a derivative of ethyl orsellinate from the lichen mycobiont of , and its effectiveness against MRSA was assessed.

The "sweet spirits" of sulfuric, nitric, and hydrochloric acids, viz. diethyl ether, ethyl nitrite, and chloroethane, have a history dating back to the late Middle Ages. The compound variously known as philosophorum spiritus vini, aqua Lulliana, Paracelsus' Schwefel süss, Cordus' dulce Vitrioli oleum, and Frobenius' æther is identical with diethyl ether.

Background: Pain therapy is an important first-response measure in the pre-clinical care of trauma patients. Injured individuals on ski slopes are usually given first aid by members of the ski patrol. The early implementation of adequate pain therapy by these paramedical rescuers can increase patient satisfaction and have a positive effect on the entire treatment process.

Cationic polymerization of vinyl ethers to access poly(vinyl ether) polymeric materials has been challenging due to stringent polymerization conditions and inevitable chain transfer. Herein we introduce a protocol using trifluoromethyl sulfonates to catalyze the polymerization of a series of vinyl ethers. These trifluoromethyl sulfonates are fully commercially available and can be stored under ambient conditions.
