Corrosion Protection of Mild Steel in Acidic Environments by Cetrimonium Cinnamates in Solution and Added to a Low Volatile Organic Compound Coating [PDF]
Protection of mild steel from acidic solutions used in the industry by environmentally friendly methods is an area of need. This work explores the anticorrosive properties of cetrimonium cinnamate compounds for mild steel in acid solutions as an additive in solution and as a pigment in a low-volatility organic compound (VOC) coating.

Identification of cetrimonium bromide and irinotecan as compounds with synthetic lethality against NDRG1 deficient prostate cancer cells [PDF]
The N-myc downstream regulated gene 1 (NDRG1) has been identified as a metastasis-suppressor gene in prostate cancer (PCa). Compounds targeting PCa cells deficient in NDRG1 could potentially decrease invasion/metastasis of PCa. A cell based screening strategy was employed to identify small molecules that selectively target NDRG1 deficient PCa cells. DU-

Laser-induced vapor nanobubbles improve diffusion in biofilms of antimicrobial agents for wound care
Being responsible for delayed wound healing, the presence of biofilms in infected wounds leads to chronic, and difficult to treat infections. One of the reasons why antimicrobial treatment often fails to cure biofilm infections is the reduced penetration
