Indenocarboxamides, resulting from the sequential addition of two arylamine equivalents to indanedione ketene dimer, are oxidized by [bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodobenzene] to fused indeno-1,4-diazepinones in yields depending on the substituents on both aromatic rings. A plausible reaction pathway explaining the formation of the title compounds, as well as the formation of the two other minor products of the reaction, through a common intermediate, is suggested.

Botulinum neurotoxin, produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, causes botulism, a severe, rapidly progressing, and potentially fatal condition. Swift detection of the toxin and timely administration of antitoxin antibodies are critical for effective treatment. The current standard for Botulinum toxin testing is the mouse lethality assay, but this method is time-consuming and requires live animals.

Manual annotation of ultrasound images relies on expert knowledge and requires significant time and financial resources. Semi-supervised learning (SSL) exploits large amounts of unlabeled data to improve model performance under limited labeled data. However, it faces two challenges: fusion of contextual information at multiple scales and bias of spatial information between multiple objects.

Background: Several chemical studies described the physiological efficacy of 1,4- dihydropyridines (DHPs). DHPs bind to specific sites on the α1 subunit of L-type calcium channels, where they demonstrate a more pronounced inhibition of Ca2+ influx in vascular smooth muscle compared to myocardial tissue. This selective inhibition is the basis for their preferential vasodilatory action on peripheral and coronary arteries, a characteristic that underlies their therapeutic utility in managing hypertension and angina.

The fabrication of objects with complex shape and geometry has been greatly facilitated with the advancements in additive manufacturing. While synthetic polymers like ABS and PLA have found widespread use in extrusion 3D printing, other biobased thermoplastics that are both biodegradable and biocompatible could offer strategic advantages over traditional synthetic materials. In this work dextran of low (20 kDa) and medium (40 kDa) molecular weight (MW) was modified with palmitic acid to obtain meltable polymers for extrusion 3D printing/fused deposition modeling additive manufacturing.
