Based on nitrogen and phosphorus co-doped carbon dots (NP-CDs), a direct, quick, and selective sensing probe for fluorometric detection of rutin has been developed. Utilizing ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) as a carbon and nitrogen source and diammonium hydrogen phosphate (NH)HPO as a nitrogen and phosphorus source. The NP-CDs were synthesized in less than 3 min with a straightforward one-step microwave pyrolysis process with a high quantum yield (63.

In the present study, a norfloxacin (NFX) fluorescent probe was tailored for the spectrofluorometric measurement of cefepime (CFP). The proposed approach measured the quenching effect of CFP on the fluorescence intensity of NFX in acetate buffer solution. The obtained results show that CFP strongly quenches the fluorescence of NFX in a static mechanism.

New tributyltin(IV) complexes containing the carboxylate ligands 3-(4-methyl-2-oxoquinolin-1(2H)-yl)propanoic acid () and 2-(4-methyl-2-oxoquinolin-1(2H)-yl)acetic acid () have been synthesized. Their structures have been determined by elemental microanalysis, FT-IR and multinuclear NMR (H, C and Sn) spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction study. A solution state NMR analysis reveals a four-coordinated tributyltin(IV) complex in non-polar solvents, while an X-Ray crystallographic analysis confirms a five-coordinated trigonal-bipyramidal geometry around the tin atom due to the formation of 1D chains.

Human lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) is a homotetrameric isozyme involved in the conversion of glyoxylate into oxalate in the cytosol of liver cells (hepatocytes) and partially responsible for the overproduction of oxalate in patients with the rare disease called primary hyperoxaluria (PH). Recently, LDHA inhibition has been validated as a safe therapeutic method to try to control the PH disease. Stiripentol (STP) is an approved drug used in the treatment of seizures associated with Dravet's syndrome (a severe form of epilepsy in infancy) which, in addition, has been drawing interest in recent years also for potentially treating PH, due to its LDHA inhibitory activity.

This study selected three approved folate sources-folic acid (FA), L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (MTFA), and calcium 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (CMTFA)-to explore their interaction mechanisms with soy protein isolate (SPI) through spectrofluorometric analysis and molecular docking simulations. We investigated how these interactions influence the structural and physicochemical stability of folates and SPI. Three folates spontaneously bound to SPI, forming complexes, resulting in a decrease of approximately 30 kJ·mol in Gibbs free energy and an association constant (K) of 10 L·mol.
