Aim: The aim of this study was to determine cytotoxic activity of BornUSU I or Boronhafagama I (1,5-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-oxa-1,5-diaza-2,4-diboropentane-2,4-diol) as a boron derivate compounds which are boron neutron captured theraphy (BNCT) candidates.

Methods: The T47D cells were treated by BornUSU I, and Tamoxifen as a positive control. The in vitro study was using MTT method with the incubation period for 24h and 48h. All data were determined using viability of cells equation for showing each IC value.

Results: The IC value of BornUSU I and Tamoxifen were 72.61 ± 0.82 µM and 10.62 ± 0.06 µM for 24 h incubation period, and for the 48 h incubation period were 44.63 ± 0.23 µM and 7.79 ± 0.05 µM. The 48 h incubation period results showed the lowest IC value.

Conclusion: The results reveal that BornUSU I provide effective as anticancer, especially for breast cancer treatment.

Background: Oritavancin (ORT) is a new single-dose lipoglycopeptide showing activity against staphylococci and vancomycin-resistant enterococci. However, there is no data regarding its potential use as a catheter lock solution are scarce. We constructed an model to analyze the efficacy and stability of an ORT lock solution against the biofilm of staphylococci and enterococci over 7 days at 37 °C.

Background: The gradual extrusion of water-soluble intracellular components (such as proteins) from microalgae after pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment is a well-documented phenomenon. This could be utilized in biorefinery applications with lipid extraction taking place after such an 'incubation' period, i.e.

Objectives: Natural fibrous mineral, asbestos, has been useful in industry for many centuries. In the 1960's, epidemiology had recognized the association between asbestos exposure and mesothelioma and the IARC designated all kinds of asbestos as Group 1 in 1987. However, various scientific enigmas remained regarding the molecular mechanisms of asbestos-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis.

Intracellular, free-floating and biofilm-forming bacterial pathogens have been implicated in summer mortality of farmed Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, in New Zealand. A mortality event in 2022 in the Pelorus Sound, Marlborough, was linked to high water temperatures (> 18°C), and bacterial skin disease associated with Piscirickettsia spp. (=Rickettsia-like organisms) and Tenacibaculum species.
