Intramolecular Versus Intermolecular Bonding in Drug Gemcitabine and Nucleobases: A Computational Study

Molecules
The adsorption of the drug gemcitabine on nucleobases was investigated using a dispersion-corrected density functional theory (DFT) study. The planar structure of complexes is more stable than those with stacked and buckle-angled configurations.

Selective Air Oxidation of Bis- and Trisphosphines Adsorbed on Activated Carbon Surfaces

Molecules
Bis- and trisphosphines incorporating methylene and aryl spacers readily adsorb on the surface of porous activated carbon (AC). The adsorption can be performed in the absence of solvents, even when the phosphines have high melting points, or from ...

Nutritional and Metabolic Consequences of Camelina Seed Oil Compared to Flaxseed Oil in a Rat Diet

Molecules
Camelina seeds are rich in α-linolenic acid (ALA), but also contain small amounts of erucic acid, which is considered toxic to laboratory rats. This experiment compares the dietary inclusion of camelina oil to that of flaxseed oil, a well-known source of

Targeted Restoration of T-Cell Subsets by a Fluorinated Piperazine Derivative β-Cyclodextrin Complex in Experimental Pulmonary Inflammation

Molecules
Acute pneumonia is frequently accompanied by immune suppression, particularly affecting T-cell subsets, such as CD4+, CD4+CD25+, and CD4+CD25+FoxP3+, which are critical for immune regulation. This study evaluates the immunomodulatory potential of a novel
