From Plastic Waste to Pharmaceutical Precursors: PET Upcycling Through Ruthenium Catalyzed Semi-Hydrogenation. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
We present a new catalytic process that converts real‐life PET waste into ethyl 4‐hydroxymethylbenzoate (EHMB), which serves as a valuable intermediate for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, an insecticide, and a novel polyester. Abstract We report here the upcycling of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) waste via semihydrogenation to make ethyl 4 ...

Wound Healing Property of a Novel Thermo-Reversible Wound Gel With Lasting Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Activity. [PDF]

Int Wound J
ABSTRACT This study investigated the efficacy and safety of a novel thermo‐reversible antimicrobial wound gel (TRG, revyve Antimicrobial Wound Gel) designed to combat biofilm‐related infections in wounds. The TRG was evaluated for its ability to disrupt biofilms, sustain antimicrobial activity and promote wound healing.

Study of Epigenetic Properties of Poly(HexaMethylene Biguanide) Hydrochloride (PHMB) [PDF]

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2014
Poly(HexaMethylene Biguanide) hydrochloride (PHMB) CAS No. [32289-58-0] is a particularly effective member of the biguanides antiseptic chemical group, and has been in use since the early fifties in numerous applications. It has been proposed that PHMB be classified as a category 3 carcinogen although PHMB is not genotoxic.
