Antileishmanial Activities of Carvacrol Nanoencapsulate in Biopolymeric Nanoparticles
The study obtained biopolymeric nanoparticles containing carvacrol (NPCar) and evaluated their anti‐leishmanial activity. NPCar obtained presented physicochemical characteristics due to its ideal nanometric size and zeta potential, and low polydispersity index.

Two Key Ferredoxins for Nitrogen Fixation Have Different Specificities and Biophysical Properties
Two ferredoxins, FdC and FdN, are collectively essential for the process of nitrogen fixation by the iron nitrogenase in R. capsulatus. We explore the biophysical factors, through spectroscopic and structural characterizations, which determine ferredoxin functionality and pathway specificity. The structure of FdC (PDB: 9I2A) and model of FdN (AF‐D5ARY6)

Dextran‐Assisted Biomimetic Fabrication of CdSe:Eu QDs With Enhanced Biocompatibility and Stability
Dextran‐templated CdSe:Eu quantum dots were synthesized and coated with citrate or APTES to enhance stability and reduce cytotoxicity. Structural, optical, and biological evaluations demonstrated their potential for cellular imaging and theragnostic applications. Abstract A dextran templated biomimetic synthetic approach was applied for the preparation

A series of 42 homoisoflavones were synthesized and evaluated against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Three derivatives showed potent inhibition of Mtb strains. Evaluation in infected macrophages revealed promising intracellular activity, where one derivative featuring a nitrofuranyl and piperidine group emerges as the most promising.

Polyoxotungstates‐stabilized gold nanoparticles: how to transfer from an aqueous suspension to CH3CN
The present study aimed to evaluate available methods for preparing suspensions of gold nanoparticles stabilized by polyoxometalates (POMs@AuNPs) in CH3CN, a solvent commonly used in oxidation reactions. POMs@AuNPs were successfully synthesized in CH3CN using three different approaches: (i) in situ generation of nanoparticles via chemical reduction of ...
