The effect of biologically active additive with immunomodulator properties epiphamine on the activity of antioxidant (superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione transferase) and NADPH-generating (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase) enzymes has been investigated at experimental cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in rats. The results obtained indicate epiphamine-induced changes of these enzymes activities towards control values. Changes in the content of lactate, a marker of the pathology development, have also been found in experimental animals under ischemia and epiphamine administration caused changes similar to those observed in the case of enzyme activities studied. In most cases, the changes were dose-dependent. Thus, epiphamine can be of considerable interest from the point of view of metabolic changes pharmacological correction at the development of the pathology accompanied by oxidative stress.

RNA pesticides have emerged as a promising alternative to conventional chemical pesticides due to their high specificity and minimal environmental impact. However, the instability of RNA molecules in the environment and the challenges associated with their effective delivery to target pests limit their broader application. This study addresses these challenges by developing a dual delivery system using chitosan (CS) and Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) to enhance the delivery and efficacy of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and cycloxaprid against , a vector of citrus greening disease.

The use of adjunct chemical substances in the early postoperative period of periodontal surgical procedures is recommended due to the potential risk of trauma in the operated area. Chlorhexidine digluconate mouthwash is widely used but can cause adverse effects. Phthalocyanine derivatives are being studied as an alternative, demonstrating good antimicrobial activity, especially in the self-activated form, which does not require additional light or chemicals.

Astaxanthin (AST), as a natural antioxidant, has broad application prospects in medicine and health products. However, its highly unsaturated structure and significant lipophilic characteristics limit its dispersibility and bioavailability, thereby restricting its application in food, medicines, and nutraceuticals. To overcome these limitations, researchers have proposed the use of nano delivery systems.

Objective: Heavy metal pollution is one of the more recent problems of environmental degradation caused by rapid industrialization and human activity. The objective of this study was to isolate, screen, and characterize heavy metal-resistant bacteria from solid waste disposal sites.
Methods: In this study, a total of 18 soil samples were randomly selected from mechanical sites, metal workshops, and agricultural land that received wastewater irrigation.

The cytoplasm exhibits viscoelastic properties, displaying both solid and liquid-like behavior, and can actively regulate its mechanical attributes. The cytoskeleton is a major regulator among the numerous factors influencing cytoplasmic mechanics. We explore the interdependence of various cytoskeletal filaments and the impact of their density on cytoplasmic viscoelasticity.
