The interactions of N-aryl-N'-(4-ethyloxybenzoyl) thioureas derivatives and anions such as F-, Cl-, Br-, I-, CH3COO-, H2POT4-, HSO4- and NO3- in DMSO were investigated by UV-Vis and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The results showed that hydrogen--bonding complexes were formed between receptors and the three anions such as F-, CH3COO- and H2PO4-, and the solutions turned light yellow from colorlessness, but there had no evident binding with Cl-, Br-, I-, HSO4- and NO3-. It was regular that the two receptors had different binding ability with F-, CH3COO- and H2PO4-. For the same anion, the association constants followed the trend: receptor 1a > receptor 1b. The UV-Vis data indicated that a 1 : 1 stoichiometry complex was formed.

Arsenic (As) is a non-essential carcinogenic metalloid and an issue of concern for rice crops. This study investigated the effects of sulfur-loaded tea waste biochar (TWB) due to modification with sodium sulfide (SSTWB) or thiourea (TUTWB) on As stress and accumulation in rice plants. The results showed that sulfur-modified TWB improved plant morphology compared to plants grown in As-contaminated soil alone.

Introduction: Variation in common taste receptor type 2 member 38 (TAS2R38) haplotypes is associated with bitter taste sensitivity, but there is not much or inconsistent evidence on association with food cravings and with chronic disease risk factors. We have conducted a cross-sectional study to assess whether genetically defined taster groups would differ in their sensitivity to bitter-tasting compounds, cravings for various food groups, and risk of chronic disease risk factors. Methodology: A total of 116 non-diabetic individuals were recruited from the Loma Linda University (LLU) campus.

The goal of this work was to synthesize new compounds for anticancer evaluation as a trial to obtain new antitumor agents with higher activity and fewer side effects. Therefore, the precursor 2,2'-(1,4-phenylenebis (thiazole-4,2-diyl))bis (3-(dimethylamino)acrylonitrile) was used to synthesize various azolopyrimidine derivatives connected to the thiazole moiety. Compounds -, including pyrazolopyrimidine, triazolopyrimidine, and others, were produced by reacting enaminonitrile with different -nucleophiles.

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is characterized by fibrosis of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells and accelerated surrounding extracellular matrix catabolism. Bioactive hydrogels have shown significant potential in regulating cellular functions and tissue homeostasis. In this work, a dynamic hydrogel (HA-NCSN/Cu) is designed via the reductive chelation of hyaluronic acid grafted with thiourea (HA-NCSN) and Cu.

CrO/g-CN photocatalyst was successfully synthesized via the one-pot thermal polycondensation method by mixing different ratios of CrCl.HO and thiourea. Thiourea was used as the precursor for building g-CN.
