A simultaneous separation of anionic, cationic, and neutral compounds was carried out in capillary LC using a mixed-bed column of zwitterionic hydrophilic and anion-exchange stationary phases. The combination in stationary phases was suitable to retain anionic, cationic, and neutral analytes. The retentions of anionic compounds were suppressed with the increase in the buffer concentration in the mobile phase whereas those for the cationic and neutral compounds were almost constant, i.e., the anionic analytes were mainly retained by anion-exchange mode and the other compounds by the hydrophilic interaction. Both hydrophilic and electrostatic retentions were successfully controlled by the ACN content in the mobile phase. The gradient elution of increasing water content in the mobile phase achieved good separation for eight compounds found in metabolome analysis within 6 min. Both intra- (n = 7) and inter-day (n = 3) precisions (%RSD) of elution time for every eight compounds were less than 3 and 5%, respectively.

Mg-dependent mechanism of environmental versatility in a multidrug efflux pump.

Tripartite resistance nodulation and cell division multidrug efflux pumps span the periplasm and are major drivers of multidrug resistance among gram-negative bacteria. Cations, such as Mg, become concentrated within the periplasm and, in contrast to the cytoplasm, its pH is sensitive to conditions outside the cell. Here, we reveal an interplay between Mg and pH in modulating the structural dynamics of the periplasmic adapter protein, AcrA, and its function within the prototypical AcrAB-TolC multidrug pump from Escherichia coli.

Highly Tension-Strained Copper Concentrates Diluted Cations for Selective Proton-Exchange Membrane CO2 Electrolysis.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

Electrolysis of carbon dioxide (CO2) in acid offers a promising route to overcome CO2 loss in alkaline and neutral electrolytes, but requires concentrated alkali cations (typical ≥3 M) to mitigate the trade-off between low pH and high hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) rate, causing salt precipitation. Here we report a strategy to resolve this problem by introducing tensile strain in a copper (Cu) catalyst, which can selectively reduce CO2 to valuable multicarbon products, particularly ethylene, in a pH 1 electrolyte with 1 M potassium ions. We find that the tension-strained Cu creates an electron-rich surface that concentrates diluted potassium ions, contributing to CO2 activation and HER suppression.

Herein, we report the solvent-dependent reactivity of Fe(CO) toward AsF in either anhydrous HF or liquid SO. The reaction of Fe(CO) with the superacid HF/AsF leads to the protonation of the iron center and allows for the first-time structural characterization of [FeH(CO)] in the solid state, representing one of the most acidic transition metal hydride complexes to ever be isolated and structurally characterized. In the aprotic but oxidation-stable solvent SO, Fe(CO) is oxidized and dimerized to [Fe(CO)], which is isoelectronic with well-known Mn(CO).

Adding colour to ion-selective membranes.

Faculty of Chemistry, University of Warsaw, Pasteura 1, 02-093, Warsaw, Poland. Electronic address:

An idea of using ion-exchanger salt containing optically active cations to prepare ion-selective membranes is proposed. Although the presence of an ion-exchanger in the composition of neutral ionophore based sensors is necessary, the choice of available salts for cation-selective sensors preparation, is usually limited to sodium or potassium compounds. In this work we propose application of an alternative salt, using a cation optically active both in absorption and emission mode as a mobile one.

Electronic address:

The volcanic soils in Chile, where a significant portion of agricultural activities take place, are impacted by the presence of veterinary drugs, including sulfamethoxazole (SMX). The study examines how different soil types influence the movement and retention of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) across four regions of Chile, focusing on conditions at a neutral pH of 7.0.
