This study investigated the binding mechanism of taxifolin (TA), daidzein (DA), and S-equol (SQ) flavonoids with fish sperm double helix DNA (dsDNA) under the simulated physiological pH condition using UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy, as well as viscometric methods. Binding constants (K) for the flavonoids to dsDNA were determined as 1.8 × 10 M for SQ, 1.

The molecular interactions between nicotinamide (NA) and two fertilizers, potassium chloride (KCl) and diammonium hydrogen phosphate (DAP), were examined by density () and viscosity () measurements in order to investigate and analyze the solvation behavior that occurs in the ternary solutions (NA + KCl/DAP + water). All of these investigations were conducted at temperatures ranging from 293.

The physicochemical properties of emulsions based on poloxamers (triblock copolymers of a hydrophobic polyoxypropylene chain and two hydrophilic polyoxyethylene chains) depend on the composition and preparation method. This study examined the impact of poloxamer P188 concentration, autoclaving mode, heating, and salt presence on the viscosity, particle size distribution, and morphology of particles using viscometric analysis, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). It was shown that sample preparation affects the particle size and morphology but not the chemical composition of P188.

The condensing reaction of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with quinoxalyl-2-carbohydrazide resulted in synthesizing of a novel derivative of hydrazone quinoxalyl ligand (Hdpq). The bonding behavior between Hdpq and Co(II) ion was investigated in molar ratios of 1: 1 and 2: 1 to produce two different complexes, Codpq and Co(dpq), respectively. Their chemical structure was verified using several spectroscopic approaches.

Hydroxamic acids represent a group of weak organic acids, both naturally occurring and synthetically derived, characterized by the general formula RC(= O)N(R'OH). In this study, we investigated the binding behavior of N-m-tolyl-4-chlorophenoxyaceto hydroxamic acid with calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) and torula yeast RNA (t-RNA) through a combination of techniques including UV-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence emission analysis, viscometry, and computational simulations using AutoDock4 software. Our findings reveal that the mode of binding between the compound and the nucleic acids is consistent with intercalation.
