Study of Mg2+ homeostasis in continuously growing cells requires the capacity to measure total cellular Mg2+ and net Mg2+ fluxes per unit time. Our laboratory's protocols for measurement of total cellular Mg2+ by atomic absorption spectrophotometry and measurement of net Mg2+ fluxes using the stable Mg2+ isotope 26Mg are described below.

microorganisms play an important role in the zearalenone (ZEA) biotransformation process in natural environments. The phosphotransferase pathway in is both widespread and relatively well conserved. However, the reaction kinetics of these phosphotransferases remain poorly understood, and their catalytic activities are suboptimal.

The aim of the work was to evaluate the in vivo effect of triterpene alcohol betulin Roth isolated from the bark of birch Betula pendula Roth. added to fat-containing products (for example, mayonnaise) on the biochemical parameters of blood and the morphological structure of the liver of rats with initiated acute toxic hepatitis.

A new corrole derivative bearing 8-hydroxyquinoline moiety, which was labeled as 8-HQ-Corrole, serves as an efficient fluorescent probe for Mg in the presence of various interferents. This probe 8-HQ-Corrole displayed an ultra-fast response (2 s) to Mg with an impressive detection limit (33 nM) and a significant fluorescence enhancement, accompanying with a blue shift from 667 to 653 nm in fluorescence spectrum. MS and Job's plot analysis indicated that the enhanced fluorescence response was attributable to the formation of 1:2 stoichiometric complex between to Mg and 8-HQ-Corrole involving quinoline nitrogen and oxygen atoms.

Continuous cropping decreases soil nutrients and destroys microbial community structure, so the development of eco-friendly and effective biofertilizers is necessary under present conditions. In this study, the preserving microalgal strain sp. (H) was firstly selected to be combined with agroforestry waste (shell powder, straw fermentation liquid) and the agroforestry microorganism sp.

A series of fluoroquinolone analogs (II, III) derived from Ciprofloxacin hydrazide were designed, and synthesized. The NCI-60 Human Tumor Cell Line Screening assay indicated that compounds II, III, and III are the most potent among the series and were further selected for five-dose evaluation, where they exhibited potent cytotoxicity with mean GI values of 3.30, 2.
