Investigation of 222‐nm ultraviolet C irradiation bactericidal effect on the surgical field in a rabbit model

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
In a rabbit surgical field model seeded with polymicrobial flora, a single dose of 222‐nm UV‐C (500 mJ/cm2) markedly reduced bacterial colonies, achieving a bactericidal effect comparable to 254‐nm UV‐C (200 mJ/cm2), while no UV‐C irradiation showed heavy growth. Wound healing did not differ among groups. Microbiota profiling detected SSI‐relevant taxa

The Synthesis and Testing of Highly Strained Cyclic and Polycyclic Molecules as Hypergolic Fuels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Increasing fuel efficiency has been a goal for chemists for several decades. Particularly, a more efficient fuel can increase the range of liquid-hydrocarbon-fueled ram-jets and cruise missiles. A storable high-energy fuel that spontaneously ignites upon

An unexpected Ireland–Claisen rearrangement cascade during the synthesis of the tricyclic core of Curcusone C: Mechanistic elucidation by trial-and-error and automatic artificial force-induced reaction (AFIR) computations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In the course of a total synthesis effort directed toward the natural product curcusone C, the Stoltz group discovered an unexpected thermal rearrangement of a divinylcyclopropane to the product of a formal Cope/1,3-sigmatropic shift sequence.

Direct evidence of singlet molecular oxygen [O2 (1Δg)] production from UVA excited 6‐thioguanine

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
6‐Thioguanine (6‐TGua) is incorporated into DNA as a purine analogue, inhibiting cell replication. Patients treated with 6‐TGua are more prone to developing skin cancer due to the photoexcitation of 6‐TGua by UVA radiation (as illustrated in the Jablonski diagram). Upon exposure to UVA, the excited 6‐TGua generates 1O2.

RAD51 and RAD51 paralog inhibition sensitizes nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to UV radiation

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
UV radiation and other compounds generate DNA adducts that block transcription and induce cell death if not removed by the nucleotide excision repair system. In this work, we used a small‐scale pharmacological screen to discover that inhibition of the recombinase RAD51 sensitized nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to both UVR and other agents that ...

Analysis of pulmonary surfactant by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy after exposure to sevoflurane and isoflurane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Pulmonary surfactant, consisting primarily of phospholipids and four surfactant-specific proteins, is among the first structures that is exposed to inhalation anesthetics.

Cyclobutane-1,2-dione

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section E Structure Reports Online, 2007
The title compound, C4H4O2, was prepared as an inter­mediate in the synthesis of α-hydroxy­cyclo­propane­carboxylic acid. The structure of this inter­mediate has only been deduced previously from 1H NMR spectra, elemental analysis or chemical derivatization.

Photoprotective potential of gadusol against ultraviolet B radiation in melanocytes

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Gadusol protects melanocytes from ultraviolet B (UVB)‐induced damage without cytotoxicity. Abstract The increasing incidence of skin cancer, including melanoma, combined with the need for ultraviolet (UV) filters that are safe for human health and marine ecosystems, is driving the search for new photoprotective agents.

On the Regioselectivity of the Nickel-Catalyzed Insertion of Alkynes into the Carbon-Carbon Bond of Oxetan-3-one [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The study of the regioselectivity of insertion of unsymmetrical alkynes into the carbon–carbon bond of oxetan-3-one in the presence of a nickel catalyst has revealed a strong directing effect of a 2-thienyl substituent.

Electronic Smoking Devices Among University Students: Usage Patterns and Chemical Composition of Inhaled Substances

open access: yesAnalytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the prevalence of electronic smoking device (ESD) use and its associated behavioural and chemical risks among university students in Bahia, Brazil. A cross‐sectional survey was conducted with 355 students from public and private institutions through an online questionnaire between April and May 2023. Among participants,
