Article Abstract
The effects of acidity and temperature on the fluorescent characteristics of N-N-bis-(O-Carboxylphenyl)-Oxamide (OBBE) have been studied in details. And the quantum efficiency of fluorescence has been measured. In a pH 8-9.5 buffer medium of H3BO3-NaOH, OBBE has a maximum excitation wavelength at 210 nm and a maximum emission wavelength at 395 nm. The nitrate reacts with OBBE and quenches the fluorescent intensity of OBBE. Thus a new sensitive method using the quenching of synchronous fluorimetry has been developed for the direct determination of nitrate in water. The linear calibration curve was obtained in the range of 0.0028 and 0.16 mg.L-1, the detection limit was 0.0028 mg.L-1. The proposed method has been applied to the determination of nitrate in water with satisfactory results.

Objectives: Antibiotic resistance towards penicillin has been attempted to counter by chemically modifying ampicillin through the conjugation with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The current study optimizes the conditions for synthesizing and characterizing AgNP-ampicillin to quantify the conjugation extent, evaluate the antibacterial efficacy, and explore the underlying antibacterial mechanisms.
Materials And Methods: AgNPs were synthesized from silver nitrate by chemical reduction method, silica-coated with tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and amine functionalized by (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES), which was then conjugated with ampicillin via the carbodiimide chemistry.

Nitric oxide (NO) is essential for cardiovascular health and is purported as an ergogenic aid. Endothelial dysfunction and reduced endogenous NO production are hallmarks of heart failure (HF), which may contribute to impaired exercise capacity. Oral inorganic nitrate supplementation offers an exogenous route to increase bioavailable NO via reduction of nitrate by oral commensal bacteria.

The title complex, [Ca(NO)(CHNO)(HO)], crystallizes with an eight-coordinate Ca ion in a distorted trigonal-dodeca-hedral coordination environment. The metal ion is coordinated to two nicotinamide ligands their carbonyl O atoms, two bidentate nitrate anions and two water mol-ecules. The nicotinamide ligands adopt a nearly geometry, while the nitrate anions and aqua ligands are arranged in a pseudo- fashion.

Background: Previous studies involving cleanup via conventional solid-phase extraction (SPE) materials to overcome matrix effects for the polar organophosphonate and -phosphinate pesticides glyphosate, glufosinate, ethephon, fosetyl, and their various metabolites often showed limitations due to the existence of various matrix compounds in plant commodities with similar polarity. To overcome existing drawbacks, we utilized the unique selectivity provided by metal oxides as SPE materials. These were exploited in a novel automated online SPE-LC-MS/MS method which allowed analyte-specific trapping in the presence of excessive amounts of matrix compounds as typically contained in extracts of the Quick Polar Pesticides (QuPPe) method.

Glacial lakes play a vital role as indicators of global climate change and regional environmental responses. Eukaryotic planktonic microorganisms, pivotal in driving biogeochemical cycling of nutrients within these ecosystems, are crucial for preserving stability and ecological function of glacial lake environments. Nevertheless, the spatial and temporal dynamics, along with the mechanisms responsible for sustaining eukaryotic planktonic microbial communities in glacial lakes, especially during the glacier retreat and lake formation, are still largely uncharted.
