In this paper, a new class of ligand-exchange chiral stationary phase (LE-CSP) based on the copper complexes of lipophilic aminoglycoside derivatives was reported. Different stationary phases were developed by coating reversed-phase liquid chromatography supports with three neamine derivatives carrying a lipophilic octadecyl chain at the 4', 5 and 6 positions, respectively. The enantioselective ability of these LE neamine-based CSPs was evaluated and the 4'-derivative coated column was found to be the most interesting one for the amino acid resolution. The effects of the variation of several chromatographic parameters on the enantioseparation were evaluated in order to identify the analysis optimal conditions.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 continues to pose a major challenge to global health. Targeting the main protease of the virus (Mpro), which is essential for viral replication and transcription, offers a promising approach for therapeutic intervention. In this study, advanced computational techniques such as molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations were used to screen a series of antiviral compounds for their potential inhibitory effect on the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro.

In this study, fungal chitosan (FC) and gum Arabic (GA) were combined to develop non-animal complex coacervates for encapsulation. Optimal coacervate formation occurred at pH 5 with a 1:4 (FC:GA) weight ratio. Innovative complementary approaches, including rheology coupled with phase-contrast microscopy, revealed that FC-GA coacervates could withstand high shear rates, reverting to their original structure afterward, making them suitable for industrial applications.

Characterization of nanoscale formulations is a continuous challenge. Size, morphology and surface properties are the most common characterizations. However, physicochemical properties inside the nanoparticles, like viscosity, cannot be directly measured.

We fate-mapped the embryonic chick forebrain using lipophilic dyes and Cre-recombination lineage tracing, and built a 4D model of brain growth. We reveal modular patterns of anisotropic growth, ascribed to progenitor regions through multiplex HCR.

The use of fluorescent labels is the most common tool to visualize cells. However, the internalization of dye molecules often modifies the cell behavior. In this paper we demonstrate that it is possible to transiently label cells using a 3D scaffold, a hydrogel, covalently functionalized with luminescent cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes.
