Beef samples from grazing steers finished with different seed-supplemented diets were vacuum packaged for 3, 14 and 56days (VC) and subsequently exposed to aerobic conditions (AE) for 0 and 5days. Different fluorescent compounds of interest in the oxidation process were detected in meat, namely tryptophan residues, Schiff bases and porphyrins. Tryptophan intensity fluorescence increased with 14days of VC; while Schiff bases intensity increased (P<0.05) in beef samples stored under VC-56 and in all samples after AE-5days. Porphyrins increased (P<0.05) gradually with the extension of vacuum storage time, but were degraded in beef with long vacuum storage and 5days of AE. Higher levels of porphyrins in beef under VC were correlated (P<0.05) with lower redness and higher TBARS after AE-5. This study revealed the potential of fluorescence signals to detect oxidative changes in beef under different storage conditions using a fast and nondestructive method such as fluorescence spectroscopy.

Organic compounds containing azines, di-imines, or bis-Schiff-bases have two azomethine (-CH=N-) functional groups associated with a bridging component. These constituents have attracted attention from a diversity of disciplines, comprising coordination, medicinal, agriculture chemistry, and organic synthesis, because of their comprehensive chemical reactivity and nature. This study determines common synthetic approaches and various biological and pharmacological activities of several substituted bis-Schiff byproducts.

The rapid industrialization and human activities in catchments have posed notable global challenges in removing of heavy metal contaminants from wastewater. Here, Schiff-bases (SB) of cyanoguanidine (CG) and salicylaldehyde (SA) were covalently grafted on a magnetic nanocomposite of chitosan to form a hybrid magnetic nanostructure (FeO@CS-CGSB). The synthesized structure was characterized using various techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), zeta potential, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area analysis (BET).

Herein, we developed multifunctional hydrogels formed between soybean protein (SPI)-gallic acid conjugate and oxidized dextran (ODex) via a Schiff base reaction. The effects of ODex on the morphology, structure, and functional properties of the hydrogels were elucidated. The results showed that the crosslinking modes in the hydrogels include hydrogen bonding, Schiff bases, Michael addition, and π-π stacking.

Many cancers have displayed resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs over the past few decades. EGFR has emerged as a leading target for cancer therapy inhibiting tumor angiogenesis. Besides, studies strongly suggest that blocking telomerase activity could be an effective way to control the growth of certain cancer cells.

The synthesis, crystal structure, Hirshfeld analysis, and anti-fungal assessment of a new monohydrated Schiff base with a triazole moiety are reported. The structural study revealed the presence of three significant hydrogen bonds (N-H⋯N, O-H⋯N, and O-H⋯O), which contribute to the cohesion of the crystal. These bonds generate two-dimensional layers parallel to the plane, built on the basis of rings with the graph-set motifs (8) and (24).
