A novel direct method has been developed for determination of n-octanol-water partition coefficients by hollow-fiber membrane solvent microextraction (HFMSME) combined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The compound of interest is dissolved in water with sonication and a hollow fiber containing octanol inside is placed in the sample solution to perform microextraction. After microextraction the concentrations in both the aqueous and n-octanol phases are analyzed by HPLC with UV detection. The method was evaluated with ten reference compounds and shown to be suitable for determination of the partition coefficients of organic compounds accurately, cheaply, simply, and quickly. Previously unknown n-octanol-water partition coefficients have been obtained for other compounds by use of the hollow-fiber membrane solvent-microextraction technique.

The present article deals with the modulation of oscillatory electroosmotic flow (EOF) and solute dispersion across a nanochannel filled with an electrolyte solution surrounded by a layer of a dielectric liquid. The dielectric permittivity of the liquid layer adjacent to supporting rigid walls is taken to be lower than that of the electrolyte solution. Besides, the aforesaid liquid layer may bear additional mobile charges, , free lipid molecules, charged surfactant molecules , which in turn lead to a nonzero charge along the liquid-liquid interface.

In recent years, machine learning has gained substantial attention for its ability to predict complex chemical and biological properties, including those of pharmaceutical compounds. This study proposes a machine learning-based quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model for predicting the physicochemical properties of anti-arrhythmia drugs using topological descriptors. Anti-arrhythmic drug development is challenging due to the complex relationship between chemical structure and drug efficacy.

Herein, we report the synthesis of a series of new compounds by combining 2-aminobenzothiazole with various profens. The compounds were characterized using techniques such as H- and C-NMR, FT-IR spectrometry, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), with detailed HRMS analysis conducted for each molecule. Their biological activities were tested in vitro, revealing significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, comparable to those of standard reference compounds.

The occurrence of heavy metals is important for understanding their behavior in the sediments of river-salt lake ecosystems due to dramatically changes in salinity and flow velocity at the confluence area. Sediments and surface water samples were collected from the Golmud River-Dabson Salt Lake ecosystem, northwest China, to investigate the spatial distribution, sediment-water partitioning, risk assessment and source apportionment of heavy metals. Higher concentrations of heavy metals were observed in surface water from Dabson Salt Lake than in other regions.

The transfer of radionuclides discharged into rivers by nuclear facilities are conditioned by their solid/liquid fractionation, commonly represented by an equilibrium approach using the distribution coefficient K. This coefficient, largely used in modeling, assumes an instantaneous and completely reversible reaction. However, such assumptions are rarely verified.
