Purpose: The effect of monovalent (Na and K) and divalent (Ca, Mg, and Zn) metal ions combined with citrate or acetate buffers (pH 4.5) on the stability of dalbavancin in aqueous solutions was investigated.
Method: RP-HPLC and HP-SEC were used to evaluate the stability of aqueous solutions of dalbavancin in different combinations of buffers and metal ions after four weeks of storage at 5°C and 55°C. A long-term study of formulations with divalent metal ions was conducted over six months at 5°C., 25°C and 40°C using RP-HPLC.
Results: All formulations in citrate buffered solutions precipitated. Dalbavancin solutions in 10 mM acetate buffer at 55°C were more stable in 10 mM CaCl, 5 mM ZnCl and 10 mM MgCl than those containing 2 mM NaCl or 5 mM KCl, although the MgCl formulations precipitated slightly. No significant effect was observed for any of the divalent metal ions at 40°C for six months.
Conclusion: Dalbavancin's stability in solution was improved by a combination of acetate and divalent metal ions at 55°C for four weeks. No effect was observed with acetate or metal ions alone, and no effect was observed after six months at 40°C suggesting that acetate and divalent metal ions together interact with dalbavancin via a thermally activated step to inhibit hydrolysis of the drug.

In this work, we have explored the metal ion sensing properties of two bisbenzimidazole-based fluorescent probes, that differ in their conformational flexibility, in an aqueous medium. The compound with a flexible methyl spacer (1) experienced blue shifts in its absorption and emission maxima (along with a turn-off response) upon the addition of Hg ions. On the contrary, the compound with a relatively rigid structure (2) showed red shifts in both its absorption and emission maxima (along with a turn-off response) when treated with Hg under similar conditions.

Atherosclerosis (AS) is a prevalent inflammatory vascular disease characterized by plaque formation, primarily composed of foam cells laden with lipids. Despite lipid-lowering therapies, effective plaque clearance remains challenging due to the overexpression of the CD47 molecule on apoptotic foam cells, inhibiting macrophage-mediated cellular efferocytosis and plaque resolution. Moreover, AS lesions are often associated with severe inflammation and oxidative stress, exacerbating disease progression.

In this work, a new fluorescent sensor for detecting Cu was developed based on the Rhodamine derivative. It displayed strong fluorescence enhancement upon the addition of Cu, and other common metal ions do not significantly affect the optical properties of the sensor. This optical signal change caused solely by Cu is due to the opening of the lactone amide spiro ring structure, resulting in fluorescence emission.

Currently, the development of suitable transition metal chalcogenides (TMDs) for aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) is plagued by the terrible conductivity and electrochemical properties. Herein, a one-step ball milling method is applied to enhance the conductivity of commercial MnTe cathode by constructing three dimensional (3D) carbon nanotubes (CNTs) interweaved MnTe nanoparticles (abbreviated as MnTe@CNTs), which can achieve ultrafast ion conduction. The stable electrochemistry properties benefit from the synergistic effects between layered MnTe and 3D CNTs, which can improve the electrons/ions diffusion kinetics as cycling.
