Interaction of aniline, p-toluidine and p-chloroaniline with nickel, cadmium and manganese hexacyanoferrates(II) has been studied. Nickel and cadmium hexacyanoferrates(II) showed maximum adsorption at neutral pH, whereas, manganese hexacyanoferrate(II) reacts with aniline, p-toluidine and p-chloroaniline forming the colored oligomers on its surface. The adsorption data obtained at neutral pH is fitted in Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The adsorption behavior of the studied aromatic amines followed the order: p-toluidine>aniline>p-chloroaniline, which is related to the basicities of the amines. Results of the present study suggest the importance of metal hexacyanoferrates(II) and metal ions in stabilization of aromatic amines during the processes of prebiotic condensation reactions.

Extension of shelf-life of mangoes using PLA-cardanol-amine functionalized graphene active films.

Multifunctional PLA films were fabricated through the solution casting method by incorporating cardanol oil (CA) and amine-functionalized graphene (AFG). The effect of the CA, and AFG on the structural, mechanical, thermal, thermo-mechanical and antioxidant properties of PLA films were investigated. FTIR analysis of PLA-CA films showed distinct peak positions at 1590 cm corresponding to the aromatic CC bonds of CA, showing that CA is compatible with the PLA.

Engine deposits can reduce performance and increase emissions, particularly for modern direct-injection fuel delivery systems. Surfactants known as deposit control additives (DCAs) adsorb and self-assemble on the surface of deposit precursors to keep them suspended in the fuel. Here, we show how molecular simulations can be used to virtually screen the ability of surfactants to bind to polyaromatic hydrocarbons, comprising a major class of carbonaceous deposits.

Background: Para-phenylenediamine (PPD) is a crystalline solid that belongs to the aromatic amine group, widely used in the manufacturing of various dyes. PPD exhibits toxic effects on female hormone stability, ovarian function, and embryo development. Although studies have shown that PPD exposure can damage oocyte quality in female mice, research on its effects on male reproductive capability, particularly on human sperm quality and function, is limited.

The purpose of this review was to analyse the literature regarding the correlation between the level of tryptamine, aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) signalling pathway activation, and monoamine oxidase (MAO)-A and MAO-B activity in health and conditions such as neurodegenerative, neurodevelopmental, and psychiatric disorders. Tryptamine is generated through the decarboxylation of tryptophan by aromatic amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) in the central nervous system (CNS), peripheral nervous system (PNS), endocrine system, and gut bacteria. Organ-specific metabolism of tryptamine, which is mediated by different MAO isoforms, causes this trace amine to have different pharmacokinetics between the brain and periphery.

Context-Dependent Heterotypic Assemblies of Intrinsically Disordered Peptides.

J Am Chem Soc

January 2025

Department of Chemistry, Brandeis University, 415 South St., Waltham, Massachusetts 02454, United States.

Despite their critical role in context-dependent interactions for protein functions, intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are often overlooked for designing peptide assemblies. Here, we exploit IDRs to enable context-dependent heterotypic assemblies of intrinsically disordered peptides, where "context-dependent" refers to assembly behavior driven by interactions with other molecules. By attaching an aromatic segment to oppositely charged intrinsically disordered peptides, we achieve a nanofiber formation.
