Well-designed gland-preserving surgical treatment with regard to submandibular glandular pleomorphic adenoma.
In this study, a novel porous composite (Fe3O4@TAPB-COF@ZIF-8) consisting of metal-organic and covalent organic frameworks was developed and applied to the magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of bisphenols. The extraction parameters such as the extraction time, solution pH, amounts of adsorbent, and ionic strength were investigated to obtain the best extraction conditions. By optimizing the MSPE, a convenient and sensitive analytical method was established in combination with high-performance liquid chromatography. The method achieved low detection limits (0.04-0.05 ng mL-1), wide linear range (0.25-1000 ng mL-1), good repeatability (1.20-4.30%), good reproducibility (1.34-4.03%), and satisfactory recoveries of four functional beverages (66.2-116.6%).N-hydroxybenzenesulfonamide (commonly known as Piloty's acid) is considered a major source for nitroxyl (HNO) species which has potential biological and medicinal applications. In the present study, the conformational preferences and chemical reactivity of Piloty's acid (PA) and its hydrazide analogue (benzenesulfonylhydrazide, BSH) were studied using spectroscopic and computational tools. Six stable conformations of each molecule were theoretically identified, and their structures were fully optimized at the DFT-B3LYP and MP2 levels. Both molecules in their most stable forms adopt the anti configuration with the NH bond of the secondary amine pointing away from the terminal hydroxyl and amine moieties in the acid and hydrazide molecules, respectively. Three stable gauche states facilitated by weak intramolecular interactions of the SO⋯HO and SO⋯HN types arise due to the internal rotation about the SN linkage. Reliable assignments of the vibrational modes and the calculated reaction coordinates support a two-step mechanistic pathway of the Piloty's acid dissociation leading to the production of the nitroxyl (HNO) intermediate with moderate transition state barriers. Frontier molecular orbitals distributions, molecular electrostatic potential maps and condensed Fukui functions analysis of the molecules were employed to elucidate the agility of PA to dissociate to produce HNO and the absence of such a dissociation of BSH that would produce diazene (N2H2).Nuclear to cytoplasmic ratio is one of the vital parameters in diagnosis of cancer by means of hematoxylin-eosin (HE) stained histopathology. However, HE histopathology dependent on mechanical tissue slice damages biosamples and exhibits insufficient accuracy. Herein, we rationally prepared two small-molecule plasma membrane fluorescent probes with red-emitting fluorescence for visualizing plasma membrane in living cells and tissues. Their fluorescence intensities are strongly affected by environmental viscosity, which enables the exclusive imaging of plasma membrane in high fidelity. The probes can visualize plasma membrane in SiHa and rat blood red cells. Particularly, the probes are able to visualize T-tubule (transverse tubule) in skeletal muscle tissues successfully, suggesting their ability to image plasma membrane in tissues. In cooperation with Hoechst 33342, the nuclear to cytoplasmic ratio was successfully qualified in live cells and tissues. We believe these probes may have potential applications in facilitating the study on histopathology and the related areas.This work summarizes the spectroscopic-assisted archaeometric study of the most important terracotta statue of Poseidonia-Paestum (Italy), the so-called Zeus Enthroned (VI sec. BC). The selected analytical strategy combines the mineralogical and molecular information provided by X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman analysis with the elemental data obtained from X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) and Scanning Electron Microscopy coupled to Energy Dispersive Spectrometry (SEM/EDS). To shed light on the raw materials used to create and decorate this unique artwork, the analytical results gathered in this study helped disclosing the applied production technology. As suggested by the detected mineral assemblages, the body was prepared in two steps, using calcareous clay (CC) rich in Mg- and Fe- minerals as raw materials. The inner core and the outer depurated layers were both fired in oxidizing conditions but reaching different temperatures (≥900 °C and 850-900 °C respectively). The statue was decorated by firing manganese- (jacobsite MnFe2O4) and iron- (hematite Fe2O3) oxides in oxidizing conditions. Knowing that the decoration techniques based on the use of Mn-oxides were mastered by Etruscans rather than by Ancient Greeks, the obtained results suggest a transfer of production technology across borders, thus providing an additional clue about the flourishing commercial and cultural exchanges occurred between Greek colonies and Italic pre-Roman societies.Here, we prepared the solid inclusion complexes between Caffeic acid (CA) and Cyclodextrins (β- and γ-CDs) (CA/CDs) that were effectively embedded into Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) electrospun nanofibers via electrospinning technique to enhanced solubility and antibacterial activity. In tested Cyclodextrins are β-and γ-CDs with CA in the ratio of 11 resulting in the formation of CA/CDs by co-precipitation method. The physical properties of CA/CDs were examined by FT-IR, UV, and Raman Spectroscopy. The phase solubility test showed a much higher solubility of CA due to inclusion complexes (ICs). Furthermore, CA/β-CD and CA/γ-CD perfected achieved 0.701 and 0.801 the molar ratio of ICs, confirmed by NMR studies. The fiber size distribution, average diameter, and morphology features were evaluated by SEM analysis. The dissolution profile of PVA/CA and PVA/CA/CDs were tested within 150 min, resulting in CA dissolved in PVA/CA/CDs slightly higher than PVA/CA nanofibers due to enhanced solubility of ICs. Moreover, PVA/CA/CDs exhibit high antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria of E-Coli and gram-negative bacteria of S. aureus. Finally, these results suggest that PVA/CA/CDs may be promising materials for active food packaging applications.Flos Mume, an ancient Chinese plant, is widely used for food and medicine. There are numerous varieties of Flos Mume, whose main active components are chlorogenic acid, hyperoside and isoquercitrin. Currently, Flos Mume varieties are mainly distinguished by physical appearance and they have not been scientifically indexed for identification. Fourier transform near infrared spectroscopy (FT-NIR) is a technique that when combined with chemometrics, determines internal components of samples and classifies them. Here, to distinguish between different Flos Mume varieties, we used a qualitative identification model based on FT-NIR. Various model parameters indicated its stability and high predictive performance. learn more We developed a rapid, non-destructive method of simultaneously analyzing 8 components but found that only neochlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, rutin, hyperoside, and isoquercitrin have application value. Other components were excluded due to low concentration and poor prediction. Chemometric analysis found that chlorogenic acid become an ingredient which is quite different in the different categories.
