Ultrasonic irradiation (640 kHz) leads to the effective degradation of 5-methyl-benzotriazole (5-MBT) in O2 saturated aqueous solution. Up to 97% of 5-MBT is eliminated within 2h of treatment. Upon extended treatment of 6h, UV absorbance of the n→π(∗) and π→π(∗) transitions associated with aromatic and conjugated systems are completely removed, indicating complete destruction of the aromatic system in 5-MBT. The decomposition of 5-MBT follows pseudo-first order kinetics and the observed decomposition rate dropped significantly in the presence of tertiary butyl alcohol. Detailed product studies were performed employing a negative mode ESI LC-MS. Twenty eight intermediate products were detected during ultrasonic mediated degradation of 5-MBT. Reaction pathways are proposed based on the structures of products assigned to observed 28 masses from LC-MS and commonly accepted degradation pathways observed by thermal and hydroxyl radical mediated pathways often associated with ultrasonic treatment.

Background: Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) is the cornerstone of bacterial identification. The performance of a new MALDI time-of-flight mass spectrometry VITEK MS PRIME (VMS-P) system was compared with that of the MALDI Biotyper Microflex LT (MBT) system, which is routinely used in our laboratory.
Methods: Sixteen bacterial and yeast reference strains cultured in 20 different media were analyzed over 10 consecutive rounds using both systems.
The Advances and Challenges of Liposome-Assisted Drug Release in the Presence of Serum Albumin Molecules: The Influence of Surrounding pH.

The aim of this study is to prepare a liposomal delivery system for 5-methyl-12 (H)-quino[3,4-b]-1,4-benzothiazine chloride (5-MBT) and study the in vitro release characteristics. The release of 5-MBT from a liposomal complex with human serum albumin (HSA) [L]:HSA was examined using the spectrophotometric method and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Electronic paramagnetic resonance was used to assess the influence of the pH of the environment on the conformation of phospholipids, the latter determining the degree of release of the encapsulated compound.

Objective/background: Morphological study of a mice of tissue necrosis stages in experimental organ-preserving tuberculosis (TB) pharmacotherapy using quercetin and polyvinylpyrrolidone (QP).
Methods: A total of 32 laboratory mice of C57BL/6JLacSto strain were used in the experiment. The animals were divided into five groups (Group 1-5), with six to seven mice in each group: Group 1, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MBT)-uninfected mice; Group 2, MBT-infected mice; Group 3, MBT infected and treated with anti-TB preparation (ATP); Group 4, MBT infected and QP treated; and Group 5, MBT infected and treated with ATP and QP.
