Time to rethink medical disinfection from a planetary health perspective
Disinfection products can have substantial environmental impacts which include associated manufacturing emissions, toxicity to marine life and potential adverse health outcomes. Despite this, disinfection is under-represented in sustainability approaches.

Interaction of solid organic acids with carbon nanotube field effect transistors [PDF]
A series of solid organic acids were used to p-dope carbon nanotubes. The extent of doping is shown to be dependent on the pKa value of the acids. Highly fluorinated carboxylic acids and sulfonic acids are very effective in shifting the threshold voltage and making carbon nanotube field effect transistors to be more p-type devices.

A Bacterial Inflammation Sensor Regulates c-di-GMP Signaling, Adhesion, and Biofilm Formation
Immune cells are well equipped to eliminate invading bacteria, and one of their primary tools is the synthesis of bleach, hypochlorous acid (HOCl), the same chemical used as a household disinfectant.

Bacterial Defense Systems against the Neutrophilic Oxidant Hypochlorous Acid
Neutrophils kill invading microbes and therefore represent the first line of defense of the innate immune response. Activated neutrophils assemble NADPH oxidase to convert substantial amounts of molecular oxygen into superoxide, which, after dismutation ...

Photosynthesis of NH3 from NO3− Using CH4 in Homogenous Rhenium Catalysis
We present a Re catalysis of one‐pot synthesis of NH3 from NO3− using CH4 as a reductant under UV light irradiation. We are able to directly convert NO3−, leading to several environmental issues, to NH3, an essential compound as a fertilizer and industrial raw material, by means of CH4, which has a high affinity with renewable resource/energy, as a ...

Electrolytic treatment of latex wastewater [PDF]
A novel method of latex wastewater treatment was developed based on in-situ hypochlorous acid generation. The hypochlorous acid was generated in an undivided electrolytic cell consisting of two sets of graphite as anode and stainless sheets as cathode ...

Antioxidant and cytotoxic studies for kaempferol, quercetin and isoquercitrin
The aim of the present study was to investigate a cytotoxic oxidative cell stress related and the antioxidant profile of kaempferol, quercetin, and isoquercitrin. The flavonol compounds were able to act as scavengers of superoxide anion (but not hydrogen

Structural Insights from Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Tryptophan 7-Halogenase and Tryptophan 5-Halogenase [PDF]
Many natural organic compounds with pharmaceutical applications, including antibiotics (chlortetracycline and vancomycin), antifungal compounds (pyrrolnitrin), and chemotherapeutics (salinosporamide A and rebeccamycin) are chlorinated.
