The Impact of Cyclodextrins on the Physiology of Candida boidinii: Exploring New Opportunities in the Cyclodextrin Application

Molecules
Cyclodextrins, commonly used as excipients in antifungal formulations to improve the physicochemical properties and availability of the host molecules, have not been systematically studied for their effects and bioactivity without a complex active ...

Synthesis of modified cyclic and acyclic dextrins and comparison of their complexation ability

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2014
We compared the complex forming ability of α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrins (α-CD, β-CD and γ-CD) with their open ring analogs. In addition to the native cyclodextrins also modified cyclodextrins and the corresponding maltooligomers, functionalized with ...

Interphase Self‐Optimization Enables Stable Magnesium Anode in Hydrogel Electrolyte

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Based on a MgCl2 hydrogel electrolyte, we identify a tridentate chelant additive to construct a magnesium oxychloride interphase on Mg metal anodes. This self‐optimized interphase enables low‐resistance Mg2+ stripping/plating, resulting in much elongated cycling life of 600 h with 0.24 V nucleation overpotential.

Light‐Programmable Interfaces: From Molecular Photoswitching to Adaptive Membrane Separations

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This review advances an interface‐centered framework for light‐responsive membranes, linking molecular photoswitches (azobenzene (AZO), spiropyran (SP), diarylethene (DAE), donor–acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASA), photoacid) to integration strategies in polymeric, porous, self‐assembled, and mixed‐matrix systems.

Effect of a mixture of caffeine and nicotinamide on the solubility of vitamin (B2) in aqueous solution [PDF]

, 2006
The effect of caffeine (CAF) and nicotinamide (NMD) on the solubility of a vitamin B2 derivative (FMN) has been evaluated for mixtures containing either a single hydrotrope (CAF or NMD) or the two hydrotropes simultaneously.
