A new class of sulfone linked bis heterocycles viz., pyrrolyl/pyrazolyl arylaminosulfonylmethyl 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, 1,3,4-thiadiazoles, and 1,2,4-triazoles were prepared and tested for antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity. The chloro-substituted compounds 5c, 8c and 14c showed comparable antibacterial activity to chloramphenicol against Pseudomonasaeruginosa and compound 5c exhibited comparable antifungal activity to ketoconazole against Penicilliumchrysogenum. One of the compounds, vinylsulfonyl oxadiazole showed appreciably cytotoxic activity on A549 lung carcinoma cells with an IC(50) at a concentration of 31.7 μM.

Background: Environmental pollutants, called perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been linked to adverse cardiometabolic outcomes, immune dysfunction and cancer risk, but their associations with adult cognition are unknown. Nearly everyone in the United States has detectable levels of PFAS in their blood, but our prior work found that Asian Americans have the highest exposure burden. As Asian Americans fastest growing segment of older adults, examination of relationships between serum PFAS concentrations and cognition in Asian Americans urgently needed.

Carbon dots (CDs) mediated g-CN (CN) is a promising visible-light-driven semiconductor in catalyzing peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for aqueous contaminants remediation. However, the poor dispersibility of powered catalyst and its challenging recyclability impede their broader application. Herein, we embedded FeN bridge within the g-CN framework and immobilized g-CN gel beads (CA/FNCCN) through a 3D cross-linking process with sodium alginate.

Background: Exposure to per and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is suggested to interfere with the central nervous system that may affect mental health. Studies on the relationships between exposure to PFAS mixtures and anxiety in humans are rare. This study aimed to evaluate the associations between single and combined exposure to PFAS and anxiety among adults.

The progression of tumors has been demonstrated to have a strong correlation with ferroptosis. Bis(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl) sulfone (TMBPS) has been shown to effectively inhibit the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but its underlying mechanism is not clear. In this study, ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) was employed to explore whether the death of HCC cells caused by TMBPS is related to ferroptosis.

An electro- and optically favorable quaternary nanocomposite film was produced by solution-casting nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO NPs) into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT/PSS). Based on transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) observations, the synthesized NiO NPs have a cubic phase and a diameter between 10 and 45 nm. The complexity and interactions observed through XRD patterns, UV-visible spectra, and FTIR measurements suggest that the NPs are not just dispersed within the polymer matrix, but are interacting with it, leading to enhanced dielectric properties and AC electrical conductivity.
