The determination of the constant of the urea fission rate and study of the temperature dependence (activation energy) of the urease activity on warm- and cold-blooded animals in Ascaris suum and Contracaecum aduncum were undertaken. It has been shown that the constant of the urea fission rate in C. aduncum is more than an order of magnitude higher than that in A. suum. At a temperature of 17 degrees the rate of this process in C. aduncum changes but little while in A. suum it practically ceases. On the contrary, at 47 degrees the urease ferment activity in A. suum increases considerably while in C. aduncum the process rate does not rise as compared to that at 37 degrees. The subsequent calculations of the energy activation have shown that a certain adaptation to definite conditions of ferments functioning can take place.

This study investigates simple acetylenes substituted with phenylurea as a constant H-bonding unit (Alk-R) and varied hydrophobic units (R = H, Phenyl (Ph), Phenylacetylene (PA), Ph-NMe2) to understand self-assembly properties driven by synergistic non-covalent interactions. Our observations reveal hierarchical self-assembled fibrillar networks with luminescent needles, fibers, and flowers on nano- to micro-meter scales. Subtle changes in substituents led to significant differences: H, Ph, PA, and Ph-NMe2 produced needle-like crystals, dendritic nanofibers, microflakes, and no self-assembly, respectively.

Background: Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a highly versatile separation technique widely used in analytical chemistry. Traditionally, CE can be categorized as either aqueous or non-aqueous systems based on the buffer solvents employed. For decades, non-aqueous CE has been predominantly associated with the use of organic solvents, a perception deeply ingrained in the scientific community.

Self-association of cyclodextrin inclusion complexes in a deep eutectic solvent enhances guest solubility.

Carbohydr Polym

March 2025

Cyclodextrins are widely used pharmaceutical excipients known to increase the solubility of drug compounds through formation of inclusion complexes. A prominent limitation of common cyclodextrins is their own scarce solubility in water, which renders them unsuitable for many drug formulations. Cyclodextrin solubility can be enhanced in appropriate media such as Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs).

As one of nature's most fundamental blueprints and due to its critical role in life processes, DNA has naturally become the cornerstone of numerous research efforts. One particularly intriguing area of study is understanding how small molecules interact with nucleic acids. In this study, we investigated the interaction between the plant-derived indole alkaloid Raubasine (Ajmalicine; AJM) and Salmon Testes (ST) DNA using biophysical and computational techniques.

Evaluation of Lung Adverse Events Associated With Lenvatinib: A Post-marketing Surveillance Study.

In Vivo

December 2024

Department of Education and Research Center for Pharmacy Practice, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Doshisha Women's College of Liberal Arts, Kyotanabe, Japan.

Background/aim: Despite the seriousness of lung adverse events (AEs) associated with lenvatinib, comprehensive data on these events remain limited. This study was conducted to examine the disproportionality, time to onset, incidence rates, and outcomes of lenvatinib-associated lung AEs using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database.

Patients And Methods: We analysed data for the period from April 2004 to May 2023.
