Current interest in the biochemistry of Ti(IV) arises from its widespread use in white pigments and its potential in therapeutic agents. Citrate is known to form strong complexes with Ti(IV). We show here that Ti(III) citrate is generated in a facile manner and in good yield by the action of UV radiation on Ti(IV) citrate in aqueous solution. The Ti(III)-citrate species formed was isolated and characterised by UV-Visible spectroscopy, showing an absorption at 547 nm (epsilon=100 M(-1)cm(-1)), and by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy giving a resonance at g=1.949 (linewidth=60G) . An X-ray structure of the parent Ti(IV) complex in the form [TiNa(3)(C(6)H(6)O(7))(2)(C(6)H(5)O(7))(H(2)O)(6.8)].2H(2)O is reported along with a study of the reaction of Ti(IV)-citrate with N,N-ethylenebis(o-hydroxytoluene)glycine (EHTG), which was more rapid than those of other related Ti(IV) complexes.

Background/objectives: Hyperlipidemia is a serious risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and liver steatosis. In this work, we explored the effect of an herbal formula (CBF) containing immature pods and extracts on lipid metabolism disorders and lipoprotein-rich plasma (LRP) oxidation in mice.
Methods: The phenolic composition was determined using HPLC-DAD analysis.

The development and validation of an accurate, selective, and eco-friendly capillary zone electrophoretic detection (CZE) method has been presented for concurrent measurement of inorganic and organic anions including chloride, sulfate, formic acid, citric acid, acetic acid, phosphate, and glutamic acid in Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs) for the first time. An electrolyte composed of an aqueous solution of benzoic acid, 16.38 mM; l-histidine, 24.

The use of green solvents, citric acid (CA), and natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) for the obtention of pectin from wastes (pulp and peel) of was studied. The NADES used comprised citric acid-glucose-water (N1) or lactic acid-glucose-water (N2). The fractions rich in pectin obtained after exposure to NADES showed lower yield (≈4 g/100 g CA vs.

Background: Trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) and its highly soluble carboxyl complexes, often discharged into the environment by industries such as electroplating, leather tanning, and textile manufacturing, present severe risks to human health and ecosystems due to their high toxicity. These compounds are notoriously difficult to detect and remove during wastewater treatment, as they can persist in aqueous environments. Consequently, there is a pressing need for the development of simple, cost-effective, and reliable methods for their detection, which can improve monitoring, facilitate timely interventions, and enhance environmental protection efforts.
