The flagellum-specific monoclonal antibody VESP 9.1 raised against Trypanosoma vespertilionis reacts with a single protein band of 19,000 mol. wt.. This antigen is present on the flagellum of T. cruzi, T. dionisii and T. vespertilionis as well on the epimastigote and the metacyclic trypomastigote developmental stage. A comparative study using indirect immunofluorescence with 15 different trypanosomatids confirmed the specific reactions.

In the hydrated title complex, [Fe(dpa)(N)]·HO (dpa is 2,2'-di-pyridyl-amine, CHN), the Fe ion is coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral manner by two neutral, chelating dpa ligands and two anionic, monodentate azide (N ) ions in a -configuration. Distortion results from different Fe-N bond lengths [2.1397 (13)-2.

Phytochemical Characterization and Assessment of Antioxidant and Anti-Alzheimer Effects of Algerian Seseli Tortuosum.

Chem Biodivers

January 2025

Department of Food Technology, Food Science and Nutrition, Faculty of Veterinary Sciences, Regional Campus of International Excellence Campus Mare Nostrum", University of Murcia, Espinardo, 30071, Murcia, Spain.

HPLC analysis, phytochemical screening, thin layer chromatography, polyphenols and flavonoid contents were conducted to determine the bioactive contents of the Algerian Seseli tortuosum plant. Antioxidant activity was tested using DPPH and ABTS scavenging assays, reducing power, phenanthroline and silver nanoparticle (SNP) assays. The anti-Alzheimer's activity of extracts was also performed in vitro and in silico.

In the pursuit of innovative high-performance materials suitable for antioxidant applications, the density functional theory was employed to design a series of compounds derived from small biodegradable organic molecules. This study involved grafting the negatively charged unit d-glucosamine (GleN) and essential amino acids onto the 3 and 4' carbons of the backbone of -2,4,3',5'-tetrahydroxystilbene (-OXY), respectively. The aim was to prevent -OXY degradation into the region and enhance its electronic and antioxidant properties.

Elucidating Chiral Resolution of Aromatic Amino Acids Using Glycopeptide Selectors: A Combined Molecular Docking and Chromatographic Study.

Int J Mol Sci

August 2024

National Higher School of Chemistry of Rennes, Scientific Research National Center (CNRS), Rennes Institute of Chemical Sciences-Mixed Research Unit (ISCR-UMR6226), Rennes University, 35000 Rennes, France.

An asymmetric synthesis is a favorable approach for obtaining enantiomerically pure substances, but racemic resolution remains an efficient strategy. This study aims to elucidate the chiral resolution of aromatic amino acids and their elution order using glycopeptides as chiral selectors through molecular docking analysis. Chiral separation experiments were conducted using Vancomycin as a chiral additive in the mobile phase (CMPA) at various concentrations, coupled with an achiral amino column as the stationary phase.
