Role of Mutagenicity in Asbestos Fiber-Induced Carcinogenicity and Other Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Toxicology and Environmental Health. Part B, Critical Reviews, 2011
The cellular and molecular mechanisms of how asbestos fibers induce cancers and other diseases are not well understood. Both serpentine and amphibole asbestos fibers have been shown to induce oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, cellular toxicity ...

Synthesizing polyethersulphone membranes with hybrid iron/nickel nanoparticles for dyes removal: An efficient biogenesis approach

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Industrial wastewater contamination by azo dyes poses a significant environmental challenge. This study reports the green synthesis of bimetallic iron/nickel (Fe/Ni) nanoparticles using moringa leaf extract, which acted as both a reducing and capping agent, and their incorporation into polyethersulphone (PES) membranes to produce eco‐friendly ...

Investigating the Ligand‐Binding Properties of N‐arylbenzimidazoles as Novel Elastase Inhibitors

open access: yesChemMedChem, EarlyView.
A series of novel N‐[(3,5‐dimethylphenyl)methyl]‐1H‐benzimidazole derivatives is designed, synthesized, and evaluated for inhibitory activity against elastase. Several compounds demonstrate an antielastase activity, including the N‐(2‐bromophenyl)‐2‐(6‐chloro‐1‐(3,5‐dimethylbenzyl)‐1H‐benzo[d]imidazol‐2‐ylthio)acetamide, showing the greatest potency ...

Charge State Influence on Stability and Isomerism in Dehydrogenated PAHs: Insights from Anthracene, Acridine, and Phenazine

open access: yesChemPhysChem, Volume 26, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The ionization of anthracene, acridine, and phenazine has been explored, along with the removal of one and two hydrogen atoms, to provide valuable information for astrochemists and to understand the behavior of the resulting structures and their electronic reorganization. Abstract In this study, we systematically explored the stability and isomerism of

Xylose Acetals ‐ a New Class of Sustainable Solvents and Their Application in Enzymatic Polycondensation

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Novel organic solvents with an unmodified carbohydrate core were synthesised both from D‐xylose and directly from biomass and were successfully used as reaction media for lipase biocatalysts to synthesise aliphatic and aromatic polyesters. Abstract The use of organic solvents in academic research and industry applications is facing increasing ...
