1. In silico prediction of inhibitory potential of a punicalagin β-anomer against SARS-COV-2 main protease (MPRO)
The pandemic caused by the new coronavirus has resulted in a global health emergency and has prompted an urgent need for new treatment strategies. No target-specific drugs are currently available for SARS-CoV-2, but new drug candidates targeting the viral replication cycle are being explored. A prime target of drug-discovery efforts is the SARS-CoV-2 main pr

2. Per-Aqueous Liquid Chromatography for the Separation of Polar Compounds Preparation and Characterization of Poly(ethylene oxide co dimethylsiloxane) Based Stationary Phase
Poly(ethylene oxide-co-dimethylsiloxane) was thermally immobilized on silica particles-Si(PEO)-to separate small polar compounds with water-rich mobile phases. Poly(ethylene oxide-co-dimethylsiloxane) content on Si(PEO) stationary phase was optimized using a central composite design. Infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric

3. Spectroscopic techniques combined with chemometrics to study organic matter in tropical soils with different degrees of pedogenetic evolution
Understanding of the organomineral interactions in soil can elucidate the humic substances (HS) formation and the humification process. This study aimed to structurally characterize the humic acids (HA) formed in tropical soils with different pedogenesis degrees. The HA fraction was extracted from soil samples in the superficial horizons of an Inceptisol and

4. 2-(Pyridin-4yl)benzothiazole and Its Benzimidazole-Analogue: Biophysical and in silico Studies on Their Interaction with Urease and in vitro Anti-Helicobacter pylori Activities
In this study, the interaction between benzothiazole (BTA, concentration of a drug required for 50% inhibition in vitro (IC50) = 0.77 mM) and benzimidazole (BIA, IC50 = 2.14 mM) with urease was quantitatively assessed, using UV-Vis, molecular fluorescence, and circular dichroism. The results showed that both compounds interact with urease by a static fluores

5. Adhesion evaluation of the Rhodococcus opacus strain on an apatite surface
Abstract Adsorption of microorganisms and/or their different components onto a mineral surface would modify the surface characteristics of the mineral. Thus, this investigation evaluated the adsorption capacity of the Rhodococcus opacus strain onto an apatite surface. Zeta potential and contact angle measurements of the mineral showed dislocations of the val

6. Polyacrylamides in reverse cationic iron ore flotation: bench scale study
Abstract A bench scale study was carried out to investigate the influence of polyacrylamides as co-depressant in a blend with starch depressant on the reverse cationic iron ore flotation. The results indicated that the use of polyacrylamides as dual function polymer should be an alternative to improve the flotation process. These polymers act as a depressant

7. Fundamental bioflotation aspects of hematite using an extracted Rhodococcus opacus by-product
Abstract The aim of this study is to assess the floatability of hematite using a crude biosurfactant (BS) extracted from Rhodococcus opacus. Throughout high-pressure ethanol extraction, unrefined surfactant was extracted from the bacteria with a yield of 0.3 g/L. An FTIR analysis on this extract, shows the presence of alcohol (–OH) and ketone (C=O) groups,

8. Spectrophotometric Determination of Allura Red AC and Tartrazine in Food Products Using Hydrophobic Deep Eutectic Solvents as an Environmentally Sustainable Micro-Extractor
This paper reports the application of hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDES) as an environmentally friendly alternative for liquid-phase microextraction (LPME) of Allura Red AC and Tartrazine in food products and the spectrophotometric determination of these analytes. The HDES used in this work were prepared by mixing octanoic acid (OctAc) or decanoic aci

9. Single-Layered Paper-Based Microfluidic Devices Made by Paint-Spraying Technique with Great Barrier Resistance for Colorimetric Assays
The single-layered paint-spraying paper based microfluidic devices (sp-μPADs) have been for the first time integrated with the colorimetric assay. The polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) board was applied as the mask instead of the iron mask, reducing the power requirement of the cutting machine. The paint was sprayed into the paper, which blocked the pores of t

10. What is the best Cardiovascular Risk Score for the Brazilian Population?
Malaria, a parasitic infection caused by Plasmodium falciparum, is a serious global public health problem. The enzyme enoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) reductase present in a limiting step in the biosynthesis of fatty acids type II was used to search for novel molecules with potential inhibitor by virtual screening techniques. A flavonoid library obtained in

12. Activated Complex Approach to Describe Bovine Serum Albumin-Azure A and Bovine Serum Albumin-Azure B Intermolecular Interactions
Azure A (AZA) and azure B (AZB) phenothiazine dyes are used for clinical and medical purposes, and their functions can be altered via interactions with proteins. However, no kinetics information on the interactions between phenothiazine dyes and bovine serum albumin (BSA) is available. Surface plasmon resonance was used to determine the energetic and dynamic
