Proton pump inhibitors

Reactions Weekly, 2015
Proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) are a class of drugs that profoundly suppress gastric acid secretion, and thus have become the treatment of choice for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease and peptic ulcer disease. PPIs are considered safe and effective. It is essential that clinicians understand the appropriate use of PPIs, given the significant economic ...

Proton-pump inhibitors increase C. difficile infection risk by altering pH rather than by affecting the gut microbiome based on a bioreactor model

Gut Microbes
Clostridioides difficile infections often occur after antibiotic use, but they have also been linked to proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy. The underlying mechanism – whether infection risk is due to a direct effect of PPIs on the gut microbiome or ...

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.
