Antimicrobial molecular nanocarrier–drug conjugates
PublicationMany antimicrobial drugs are poorly active against pathogenic microbes causing intracellular infections, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis or Plasmodium falciparum. On the other hand, several known antimicrobial agents are not effective enough because of their limited cellular penetration. A common feature of both challenges is the inability of an active agent to cross the biological membrane(s). One of the possible approaches...

Voriconazole-Based Salts Are Active against Multidrug-Resistant Human Pathogenic Yeasts
PublicationVoriconazole (VOR) hydrochloride is unequivocally converted into VOR lactates and valinates upon reaction with silver salts of organic acids. This study found that the anticandidal in vitro activity of these compounds was comparable or slightly better than that of VOR. The Candida albicans clinical isolate overexpressing CaCDR1/CaCDR2 genes, highly resistant to VOR, was apparently more susceptible to VOR salts. On the other hand,...

Ograniczenie zanieczyszczeń odprowadzanych do Bałtyku przez rozwiązania zrównoważonej gospodarki wodno-ściekowej na obszarach wiejskich
PublicationMorze Bałtyckie jest prawie całkowicie zamknięte. W każdym roku tylko 3% objętości wody ulega wymieniane. Dlatego okres całkowitej wymiany wody w morzu jest bardzo długi i wynosi 25-30 lat. Powoduje to nagromadzenie dopływających zanieczyszczeń i przyczynia się do eutrofizacji. Czynnikami odpowiedzialnymi za eutrofizację są związki biogenne, przede wszystkim związki azotu i fosforu. Jeśli chodzi o zasilanie wód Bałtyku związkami...

Thioamides and selenoamides with chirality solely due to hindered rotation about the C-N bond: enantioselective complexation with optically active hosts
PublicationBariera rotacji wokół wiązania C-N w tioamidach jest średnio o 3-5 kcal/mol wyższa niż w odpowiednich amidach, a w analogicznych selenoamidach wzrasta jeszcze o 1 kcal/mol. Dzięki temu związki te występują w dwu enancjomerycznych formach, których wzajemna przemiana zachodzi w wyniku rotacji wokół wiązań C-N. Bariera rotacji jest wystarczająco wysoka, aby można było podjąć próbę ich rozdziału na enancjomery w temperaturze pokojowej....
