AB  - Serotonin receptors modulate numerous behavioral and neuropsychological processes. Therefore, they are the target for the action of many drugs, such as antipsychotics, antidepressants, antiemetics, migraine remedies, and many others. The 5-HT1A receptors have been involved in the pathogenesis and treatment of anxiety and depression and represent a promising target for new drugs with reduced extrapyramidal side effects. In most antidepressants, a piperazine-based structural motif can be identified as a common moiety. Here we describe the synthesis, pharmacological, and in silico characterization of a novel arylpiperazines series with excellent 5-HT1A affinity. The final compounds, 4a, 8a, and 8b, were selected according to predictions of in silico pharmacokinetics, docking analysis, and molecular dynamics in conjunction with physical properties, and metabolic stability. The accentuated molecules could serve as a lead compound for developing 5-HT1A drug-like molecules for depression treatment.

AB  - We present the green, highly atom-economical, solid-state silica gel-catalyzed synthesis of polysubstituted 1,4- and 1,2-dihydropyridines (DHPs) from commercially available materials, amines and ethyl propiolate. The DHP skeleton was assembled by heating the reactants and silica gel in a closed vessel. Aliphatic amines provided 1,4-isomers as the main or only DHP products, but the reactions of aromatic amines yielded a mixture of 1,4- and 1,2-isomers. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of the formation of a 1,2-DHP structure by the reaction of an amine with propiolic ester. Addition of 1 mass percent of H2SO4 to silica gel shifted the product distribution to 1,4-DHP as the main or the only isomer obtained. Experimental and theoretical analyses led to the identification of two key intermediates en route to DHPs and the explanation of the observed regioisomeric ratios. 1,2-DHPs show blue-cyan fluorescence in MeOH with the quantum yield Φ = 0.10–0.22 relative to quinine sulfate Φ = 0.58 and 1,4-DHPs show blue-violet fluorescence with Φ = 0.09–0.81.

AB  - The synthesis and characterization of four dumbbell-shaped fullerene molecules connected by isosorbide and isomannide moieties is presented. Additionally, their electrochemical behavior and their ability to form complexes with [10]cycloparaphenylene ([10]CPP) were investigated. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) results of the fullerene dumbbells demonstrate a high electron affinity, indicating their strong interaction with electron-donating counterparts such as carbon nanorings, which possess complementary charge and shape properties. To study the thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of complexation, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) was employed. NMR titration experiments provided further insights into the binding stoichiometries. Two distinct approaches were utilized to create bridged structures: one based on cyclopropane and the other based on furan. Regardless of the type of linker used, all derivatives formed conventional 2 : 1 complexes denoted as [10]CPP2 ⊃C60derivative . However, the methano-dumbbell molecules exhibited distinct binding behavior, resulting in the formation of mono- and bis-pseudorotaxanes, as well as oligomers (polymers). The formation of linear polymers holds significant potential for applications in solar energy conversion processes.

AB  - Interest in Cd complexes has been growing in recent years. Cd complexes are considered a potential solution in the search for novel antibiotics that can fight antimicrobial resistance. In addition, Cd complexes draw attention to material chemistry. The main objective of this work was to prepare the first Cd(II) complexes with anionic forms of pyridine-based thiazolyl hydrazone (THs) ligands HLS2 [(E)-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(2-[pyridine-2-ylmethylene]hydrazinyl)thiazole] and HLS3 [(E)-2-(2-[pyridine-2-ylmethylene]hydrazinyl)-4-(p-tolyl)thiazole] and perform their structural and spectroscopic characterization, as well as stability in solution and upon heating. Studies related to their biological activities and possible electrochromic applications are also being conducted. Complexes [Cd(HLS2)2] (1) and [Cd(HLS3)2] (2) have been characterized by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction and computational analysis of intermolecular interactions responsible for their solid-state structures was performed. Thermal stability of 1 and 2 in the solid-state was analyzed by TGA/MS, where as their solution stability was determined by the spectrophotometric titration method. Electrochemical and in situ UV–Vis spectroelectrochemical analyses of 1 and 2 were carried out to determine redox mechanisms and the influence of the substituents and electrolytes on their redox responses. The antioxidant capacity of both complexes was tested in antioxidant assays, while their antimicrobial activity was tested against five Gram-positive and four Gram-negative bacteria, as well as against three fungi. The obtained results indicate their potent antioxidant capacity. The antimicrobial activity of investigated compounds on almost all tested bacterial strains was stronger than that of the standard antibiotic erythromycin. The results of docking studies indicate that the minor groove DNA is the possible biological target of 1 and 2.

AB  - Fe(III) and Mn(II) complexes with condensation product of thiosemicarbazide and 2-acetylthiazole (HL1, (E)-2-(1-(thiazol-2-yl)ethylidene)hydrazine-1-carbothioamide) have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. In both complexes, the thiosemicarbazone ligand is coordinated in deprotonated form through the NNS donor set of atoms. However, while Fe(III) complex is in the doublet ground state with distorted octahedral geometry, the coordination environment around Mn(II) is distorted trigonal-prismatic, and the sextet state is found to be the ground state. DFT calculations were performed to rationalize spin state preferences, and continuous shape measure describes the deviation from ideal six-coordinated polyhedral geometries in the ground and excited states. Antimicrobial activity (against a panel of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, two yeast, and one fungal strain), brine shrimp assay, and DPPH radical scavenging activity of both complexes were evaluated, and these results relate to the electronic structure of the complexes.

Antimicrobial activity (against a panel of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, two yeast, and one fungal strain), brine shrimp assay, and DPPH radical scavenging activity of both complexes were evaluated, and these results relate to the electronic structure of the complexes.",

AB  - In the present study, we investigated in vitro the antimicrobial activity of the pygidial gland secretion of the guanophilic ground beetle Laemostenus (Pristonychus) punctatus (Dejean, 1828) and some of its chemicals against resistant and non-resistant bacteria and Candida species, the synergistic and additive potential of combinations of selected chemicals and antimicrobial drugs against resistant bacterial and fungal strains, anti-adhesive and anti-invasive potential of the secretion and formic acid alone and in selected combinations with antimicrobial drugs against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) toward spontaneously immortalized human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT cells). In addition, we examined the antiproliferative activity of the secretion and formic acid in vitro. The tested secretion and the standards of formic and oleic acids possessed a significant level of antimicrobial potential against all tested strains (P < 0.05). The isolate from guano Pseudomonas monteilii showed the highest resistance to the secretion and formic acid, while MRSA achieved a significantly high level of susceptibility to all agents tested, particularly to the combinations of formic acid and antibiotics, but at the same time showed a certain level of resistance to the antibiotics tested individually. Candida albicans and C. tropicalis were found to be the most sensitive fungal strains to the secretion. Formic acid (MIC 0.0005 mg/mL) and gentamicin (MIC 0.0010 mg/mL) in the mixture achieved synergistic antibacterial activity against MRSA (FICI = 0.5, P < 0.05). The combination of formic acid, gentamicin and ampicillin accomplished an additive effect against this resistant bacterial strain (FICI = 1.5, P < 0.05). The secretion achieved a better inhibitory effect on the adhesion ability of MRSA toward HaCaT cells compared to formic acid alone, while formic acid showed better results regarding the invasion (P < 0.001). The combinations of gentamicin and ampicillin, as well as of formic acid and gentamicin and ampicillin achieved similar anti-adhesive and anti-invasive effects, with a slight advantage of formic acid and antibiotics in combination (P < 0.001). The secretion and formic acid were found to be non-toxic to HaCaT cells in vitro (IC50 ≥ 401 μg/mL).

dismutase (SOD) active centers were analyzed. The majority of the aromatic
residues are involved in π–π interactions. Predominant type of interacting pairs is
His–His and His–Trp pairs. In addition to π–π interactions, π residues also form πnetworks in SOD proteins. The π–π interactions are most favorable at the pair
distance range of 5–7 Å. We observed that most of the π–π interactions shows
stabilization energies in the range −4.2 to −12.6 kJ mol-1
, while the metal assisted
π–π interactions showed an energy in the range −83.7 to −334.7 kJ mol-1
. Most of
the π–π interacting residues were evolutionary conserved and thus probably
important in maintaining the structural stability of proteins through these
interactions. A high percentage of these residues could be considered as
stabilization centers, contributing to the net stability of SOD proteins.

AB  - The synthesis of 17 hybrid molecules, consisting of artesunate, a derivative of naturally occurring artemisinin, and synthetic 4-aryl-2-aminopyrimidines, is described. New compounds were designed to improve the parent compounds' cytotoxic properties, activity, and selectivity. The synthesized hybrid molecules (15a–f with ethylenediamine linker and 16a–k with piperazine linker), as well as their precursors – pyrimidine derivatives (13a–f and 14a–k), artemisinin, and artesunate, were tested on sensitive and multidrug-resistant (MDR) human non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) cells. All hybrid compounds with piperazine linker 16a–k were selective toward NSCLC cells and displayed IC50 values below 5 μM. Although they showed similar anticancer potency as artesunate, their selectivity against cancer cells was considerably improved. Importantly, 16h–k hybrid compounds were able to evade MDR phenotype, inhibit P-glycoprotein (P-gp) activity, and increase the sensitivity of MDR NSCLC cells to doxorubicin (DOX). The inhibition of P-gp activity induced by 16h–j was stronger than the one obtained with artesunate. Among these four hybrid compounds, 16k was the most potent anticancer agent with similar IC50 values of around 1.5 μM (for comparison – over 3.1 μM for artesunate) in sensitive and MDR NSCLC cells.

AB  - The biological activity of six structurally similar tetradentate Schiff base copper(II) complexes, namely [Cu(ethylenediamine-bis-acetylacetonate)] (CuAA) and five derivatives where two methyl groups are replaced by phenyl, (CuPP), CF3 (CuTT) or by mixed groups CH3/CF3 (CuAT), Ph/CF3 (CuPT), and Ph/CH3 (CuAP) has been investigated. The set of antioxidant assays was performed, and the results were expressed as IC50 and EC50 values. The series of complexes showed interesting bioactivity and were investigated for the determination of antioxidant, antifungal, antimicrobial, and cytotoxic activity. A significant antioxidant behavior was exhibited by complex CuAA, greater than Trolox in the Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) assay. Antibacterial assay over Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogenic bacterial strains and some fungal pathogens were studied. Antiproliferative activity of complexes in two human tumor cell lines, breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7, colon adenocarcinoma LS-174, and normal fibroblast cells-MRC-5, examined the effect on cell cycle progression. The significant cytotoxic potential, comparable to cisplatin cytotoxicity, was determined in human breast cancer cell line-MCF-7 with IC50 values being 17.53–31.40 μM and human colon cancer cell line-LS-174 with IC50 values being 15.22–23.92 μM. All tested compounds showed nearly twice more selectivity toward cancer cell lines than normal cells. The interactions of complexes with human serum albumin (HSA), the most prominent protein in plasma, were investigated using spectroscopic fluorescence techniques. The complexes bind to human serum albumin at multiple sites (n = 0.2–1.9), displaying a moderate binding constant Ka = 4.1–12.4 × 104 M−1. The molecular docking experiment effectively showed complex binding to HSA and DNA molecular fragments.

AB  - This study assesses heavy metal content in soil, water, and plant material from sites located around the lignite mine and the power plant “Gacko”, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The samples were collected, prepared, and analyzed for heavy metals content using the flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Samples were analyzed for cadmium, lead, copper, zinc, manganese, and iron. To identify the relationship among the metals in samples and their possible sources, Pearson’s correlation and principal component analysis were performed. Health risk assessment was applied to establish potential health risks posed to humans caused by contaminants in different environmental compartments. The results of our analyses show that most soil samples contain copper, and one of those samples had a copper concentration of more than 70 µg/g, which is a critical upper value for agricultural use. In the soil samples that were analyzed, cadmium was also detected, and its concentration was greater than 2 µg/g. Lead, on the other hand, had a concentration that was higher than the maximum permissible for unpolluted soils in 40% of the soil samples that were analyzed. Lead and cadmium concentrations in surface waters mostly contribute to a non-carcinogenic risk in the scenario of recreational swimming exposure. The presence of Cd, a highly toxic element in water, may be explained by the leaching of artificial fertilizers used in the study area, whereas Pb’s origin may be geological. The results of this study recommend routine heavy metal monitoring in samples of soil, water, and plants from the examined area so that, if metal concentrations continue increasing, remedial action should be advised to prevent accumulation in the food chain.

AB  - A simple modification of bare glassy carbon electrode by electropolymerization of glycine by cyclic voltammetry was applied to the detection of ibuprofen. The polyglycine modified glassy carbon electrode was characterized by cyclic voltammetry and the electroactive surface area was determined. The study of ibuprofen in acetic acid buffer (0.25 M, pH 4.0) presented an electrocatalytic effect toward ibuprofen oxidation, increasing the current response and decrease of oxidation potential, at the modified electrode compared to the bare. Under the optimal conditions, the modified electrode gave a linear response in the ibuprofen concentration range of 10 to 200 μM, obtained correlation coefficient was 0.9993. the calculated limit of detection (3Sb/m) was 1.0 μM and the limit of quantification (10Sb/m) was 3.5 μM. the sensor was successfully used for the determination of ibuprofen in pharmaceutical preparations with satisfactory recoveries, 93–107 %. The new sensor showed good selectivity, repeatability, and reproducibility with satisfactory stability.

AB  - Natural Eutectic Solvents (NES) are a promising class of environmentally friendly liquids that offer an alternative to conventional organic solvents. To investigate their potential for extracting phenolic compounds from plant materials, we employed the COSMO-RS (COnductor like Screening MOdel for Real Solvents) computational method. Nineteen NES solvents were prepared to determine the most selective and effective solvent for extracting phenolic compounds from Teucrium chamaedrys using both theoretical and experimental evaluation. Screening of extraction efficiency was performed by quantification of individual compounds using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography with a diode array detector and a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer (UHPLC-DAD-MS/MS), as well as spectrophotometric assays (total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, and radical scavenging activity). In this paper, we propose a new approach to model NES properties using COSMO-RS. While the majority of previous studies have modeled these solvents as individual or pseudo-component complexes between hydrogen bond donor (HBD) and hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA), we have developed a ternary HBD:HBA:water supramolecular complex model to represent NES solution structures more accurately. This model provides insights into the intermolecular interactions driving the extraction process and predicts extraction efficiencies that agree with experimental data. Two eutectic mixtures (choline chloride:succinic acid in molar ratio 1:1 and 20% of water (w/w) and choline chloride: glycerol in molar ratio 1:1 and 20% of water (w/w)) showed strong affinity towards phenolic compounds. Overall, our findings suggest that the ternary complex model is a more appropriate approach for modeling NES properties.

AB  - In this investigation, samples of strontium-gadolinium-oxide (SrGd2O4) doped with different Yb3+ (2, 4 and 6 at%) and constant Ho3+ (1 at%) contents and co-doped with Bi3+ (2 at%) were prepared using the glycine-assisted sol–gel method. The pure orthorhombic SrGd2O4 phase, space group Pnma, was revealed using X-ray diffraction in all samples. Transmission electron microscopy discovered agglomerated clusters of spherical particles measuring approximately 150 nm in size. The inclusion of Bi3+ ions into the structure influenced the morphology since the formation of larger grains was observed, with sizes reaching up to ∼1.7 μm. The uniform distribution of all constitutive elements was confirmed by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. In all samples, up-conversion emission spectra revealed two dominant green (540 and 550 nm), red (671 nm), and infrared (758 nm) emission lines, due to the 5F4,5S2→5I8, 5F5→5I8, and 5F4,5S2 → 5I7 transitions, respectively. The sample co-doped with Bi3+ showed the most intense photoluminescent emissions, shorter luminescence decay, and the highest quantum yield. Additionally, a significant decrease in the energy band gap value was detected using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy for this sample. Methylene blue was used as a test pollutant to investigate its photocatalytic efficiency under simulated sunlight irradiation. The results show that Bi3+ co-doping deteriorates the photocatalytic efficiency of the SrGd2O4:Yb3+/Ho3+ phase by reducing hydroxyl radical formation.

Cyclic voltammetry identified irreversible oxidation of PTS, where oxidation peak was shown to be strongly dependent on the pH of the working environmental. Although the proposition of the detailed electrochemical oxidation mechanism of PTS goes out of the scope of the present research, we have determined the most probable reactive site of our analyte, by utilizing DFT-based reactivity descriptors (Fukui functions). For electrochemical quantification of PTS, oxidation peak at 0.32 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) was followed in presence of 0.5 mol L−1 of Briton–Robinson buffer solution (pH = 9). Coupled with the optimized parameters of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), SPDE detected PTS in two linear ranges (first range was from 0.011 to 0.912 µmol L−1; second range was from 0.912 to 4.420 µmol L−1), providing the LOD and LOQ on a nanomolar level (3.1 nmol L−1 and 10.0 nmol L−1, respectively). The selectivity of the optimized DPV method was found to be excellent, with the current changes of less than 7%, in the presence of ten times higher concentrations of the certain interferences. The practical applicability of the SPDE and single-drop-detection approach in dietary supplements (with a declared PTS content of 50 mg/tablet), with the recovery values ranging from 95 to 102%, shows that the developed method has high potential for precise and accurate PTS detection, as well as exceptional miniaturization possibilities of relevant equipment for on-site sensing.

AB  - This article presents studies, whose main goal was to minimize food waste. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to expand the scope of their application, for example, for the purification of polluted water from heavy metals. Millions of tons of waste from the fruit and vegetable industry, including pomace of apples and beetroots, are thrown into landfills, posing a danger to the environment. In order to solve the problems with the disposal of these wastes, the authors investigated their sorption potential for the removal of lead from wastewater. The sorbents, dried apple (AP), and beetroots (BR) pomaces were characterized by various methods (study of composition, zeta potential, FTIR-ATR, and SEM-EDX). Various models of sorption kinetics and sorption isotherms were analyzed. Kinetical studies under optimal conditions showed that the sorption process occurs through complexation and ion exchange and the determining stage limiting the rate of sorption is the diffusion of lead ions in the sorbent. The maximum sorption capacity was 31.7 and 79.8 mg/g for AP and BR, respectively. The thermodynamic data revealed the spontaneous sorption of lead ions by sorbents. The temperature rise contributes to the sorption increase by the AP sorbent, while for the BR sorbent, the opposite effect is observed. The obtained results showed that apple and beetroots pomaces can serve as effective renewable materials for the preparation of sorbents, contributing to the solution of complex environmental problems.

AB  - In this work, an advanced electrochemical platform was developed for the simple, rapid and sensitive determination of the polyphenolic compound tannic acid in various beverages using the combination of batch injection analysis with amperometric detection on a screen-printed carbon electrode. Several experimental parameters (pH of supporting electrolyte, detection potential, dispensing rate, injected volume, stirring) were consistently evaluated. The most favorable analytical performance in terms of sensitivity, selectivity, repeatability and sampling frequency was obtained in Britton-Robinson buffer pH 5.0 at a detection potential of +0.6 V vs. Ag/AgCl, a dispensing rate of 204 µL/s and an injected volume of 80 µL under stirring condition (1500 r.p.m.). The presented platform has advantages for routine analysis including portable and small-scale experimental setup, low sample consumption (∼100 µL), simple sample preparation (dilution in supporting electrolyte), high sampling frequency (180 injections per hour), low limit of detection (80 nM) and suitable precision (RSD = 4.2% for 10 μM tannic acid, n = 20). The applicability of the method was verified by analyzing several beverage samples (tea, wine) in spike-recovery assay with the recovery values for tannic acid ranging from 94 to 101 %.

AB  - Bipolar disorder (BD) is a brain disorder that causes changes in a person’s mood, energy, and ability to function. It has a prevalence of 60 million people worldwide, and it is among the top 20 diseases with the highest global burden. The complexity of this disease, including diverse genetic, environmental, and biochemical factors, and diagnoses based on the subjective recognition of symptoms without any clinical test of biomarker identification create significant difficulties in understanding and diagnosing BD. A 1H-NMR-based metabolomic study applying chemometrics of serum samples of Serbian patients with BD (33) and healthy controls (39) was explored, providing the identification of 22 metabolites for this disease. A biomarker set including threonine, aspartate, gamma-aminobutyric acid, 2-hydroxybutyric acid, serine, and mannose was established for the first time in BD serum samples by an NMR-based metabolomics study. Six identified metabolites (3-hydroxybutyric acid, arginine, lysine, tyrosine, phenylalanine, and glycerol) are in agreement with the previously determined NMR-based sets of serum biomarkers in Brazilian and/or Chinese patient samples. The same established metabolites (lactate, alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, glutamine, glutamate, glucose, and choline) in three different ethnic and geographic origins (Serbia, Brazil, and China) might have a crucial role in the realization of a universal set of NMR biomarkers for BD.

AB  - The optimized three-step sequential extraction procedure for the fractionation of micro- and macroelements, was conducted
to determine fractional characteristics of PTEs (potentially toxic elements) in surface sediments of rivers in the Vlasina
watershed. The sequential extraction results, which enable the evaluation of mobility of the studied elements, have indicated
that Zn, Ni, Cu, Cr, and As can be considered slightly mobile, whereas Pb, Mn, Cd, and Co were regarded as possibly mobile
elements. Lead was dominantly bounded (specifcally adsorbed or co-precipitated) to iron and manganese oxides (up to 80%)
and may be released by reduction. Since the content of the exchangeable fraction (F1) is an indicator for anthropogenic impact
on the aquatic environment, a low percentage (0–8%) of studied toxic elements in this fraction indicated that these elements
have lithogenic origin in most sampling locations in the area of study. Except for Pb, the substantial positive correlations
between Al and other elements showed that studied elements came primarily from terrigenous sources. Although the values
obtained for the risk assessment code (RAC) indicated a slightly increased mobility of some elements (up to 22.44%), the
values of the modifed risk assessment code (mRAC), which include toxic efects on the environment, showed there is no
danger of pollution by studied elements (all values were<1%). Our recommendation is to use mRAC instead of RAC in
ecochemical studies and assessment of the degree of sediment and soil pollution, because mRAC includes toxic efects of
elements. Based on ATI values, river sediments show no toxic to a low toxic degree. Even though obtained results indicate
that there was no considerable risk for river water contamination, the ecological risk for Fe and Pb should be monitored in
the future.

AB  - The concentration of magnetic particulate matter (PM) on the leaf surface (an indicator of current pollution) and topsoil (an indicator of magnetic PMs which have geogenic natural signal or historical pollution origin) was assessed in agricultural areas (conventional and organic vineyards). The main aim of this study was to explore whether magnetic parameters such as saturation isothermal remanent magnetization (SIRM) and mass-specific magnetic susceptibility (χ) can be a proxy for magnetic particulate matter (PM) pollution and associated potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in agricultural areas. Besides, wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (WD-XRF) was investigated as a screening method for total PTE content in soil and leaf samples. Both magnetic parameters (SIRM and χ) pinpoint soil pollution, while SIRM was more suitable for evaluating magnetic PM accumulated on leaves. The values of both magnetic parameters were significantly (p < 0.01) correlated within the same type of sample (soil-soil or leaf-leaf), but not between different matrixes (soil-leaf). Differences between magnetic particles’ grain sizes among vegetation seasons in vineyards were obtained by observing the SIRM/χ ratio. WD-XRF was revealed to be an appropriate screening method for soil and leaf total element contents in agricultural ambient. For a more precise application of WD-XRF leaf measurements, specific calibration using a similar matrix to plant material is required. In parallel, measurements of SIRM, χ, and element content (by WD-XRF) can be recommended as user-friendly, fast, and eco-sustainable techniques for determining magnetic PM and PTE pollution hotspots in agricultural ambient.

AB  - A diversity of factors, led by lithology, weathering, and erosion processes, plays a significant role in the formation and future of badland terrains. Then on previous observations it can be concluded that surface flow processes are the first trigger of erosion and that intense soil erosion combined with rapid and deep weathering are tightly connected to high erosion rates.Since climate change presents a global issue that gains increasing attention and due to the complexity of the interactions and processes that are a part of general badlands origin and evolution, a weathering experiment on badland sediments from China was conducted. Explaining temporal changes, the impact of different precipitation types and its durations of exposure on sediments during weathering processes, as well as its impact on leachate ions behaviour are the aims behind this experiment.Red clayey siltstone and mudstone badland sediments selected for the laboratory experiment were organized in four sets that included three different samples, making a total of 12 treated samples. Based on field climate data, in laboratory conditions samples were exposed to rain, acid rain, snow, and acid snow through fifteen daily cycles. Leachate was collected after each cycle and its volume, pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and ion concentrations were measured and analysed from the leachate. Changes occurring on the surface of the sample were observed through photographs taken at the end of each cycle.Based on obtained results it can be said that the main differences occur when comparing rain and snow treatments generally. Temporal, cyclic changes were, to a certain extent, noticed through sediment decay. More importantly, durations of sediment exposure to precipitation proved to be crucial for weathering processes of tested siltstones and mudstones, having exclusion and ionic forces - ion exchange chromatography as dominant chemical processes.

AB  - The optimization of expression conditions is a tedious, but necessary procedure for thesuccessful efficient production of recombinant proteins. Design of experiment (DoE) savestime and resources by using statistics to carefully select only a few experimental points(expression conditions) to obtain information about the whole tested range of variedconditions, unlike the most commonly used one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) method, whichrequires full imput space screening for optimization. Here, we have optimized theexpression conditions of His 6 and His8-mCerulean3-TEV-α-synuclein production from thethe pDUET vector, as well as the His 6-tagged protein from the pET-20b vector andexpressed into the periplasm. The proteins for which optimization was conducted wereexpressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) and BL21(DE3)pLysS. We have used DoE toplan adequate experimental points for optimization according to a Box-Behnken design,with IPTG concentration, temperature and time variation. After collecting the cultures atgiven experimental points, they were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and densitometry, thenmodelled and statistically analysed. The importance of correct sample preparation and gelloads for densitometric analysis is evident according to the obtained results. The largestexpression level was obtained from the His 8-tagged protein coded by the pDUET vector inE. coli BL21(DE3). We have also used densitometry to analyze expression levels indifferent culture media.

AB  - To the best of the author’s knowledge, so far, the utilization of industrial solid Ganoderma lucidum waste was not investigated as a potential source of remaining valuable bioactive compounds. The aim of our study was to chemically characterize the extract prepared with 96% and 70% ethanol utilizing G. lucidum waste from industrial ethanol (GE) and water (GW) extraction. The phenolic profile was assessed by UHPLC-MS/MS, while the amino acid content of selected extracts was done by GC-MS. The chemical composition of the extracts was obtained by ATP-FTIR analysis, and the peak at 1637 cm− 1 of spectra originating from C = O stretching vibration of amide I, was exclusively detected in samples prepared with 70% ethanol. Among eleven amino acids detected in G. lucidum residues, the most abundant was essential amino acid phenylalanine. Phenolic profile revealed p-hydroxybenzoic acid and chlorogenic acid as dominant in all the samples analyzed. The cytotoxic activity against two human cancer cell lines (colon carcinoma (HCT116) and melanoma (Hs294T)), photoprotective activity, and antioxidant activity of G. lucidum residues ethanol extracts (70% and 96%) were examined. The most prominent cytotoxic effect on HCT116 and Hs294T cells was attributed to extract prepared from the water extract production. The sun protection factor (SPF) values of extracts analyzed were found to be in the range from 1.86 (GE96) to 4.80 (GW70). Therefore, G. lucidum solid waste appeared to be a valuable source of bioactive compounds with antioxidant, photoprotective and cytotoxic activities.

AB  - The cosmetic industry is currently experiencing substantial growth, accompanied by a surge in the number of consumers. Due to natural ingredients' safety and efficiency, an increasingly prominent trend in this industry is the design of herbal-based cosmetic products and formulations. To meet demand, integrating innovative natural resources like plant-based formulations is essential [1]. Skin ageing-related enzymes, elastase and tyrosinase, contribute to the emergence of aesthetic issues such as wrinkles, freckles, and loss of elasticity, as well as hyperpigmentation and melasma [2]. Hence, there is an increasing focus on finding inhibitors for enzymes associated with skin ageing. The fact is that plant metabolites, particularly phenolic acids and flavonoids, are frequently concentrated in plant leaves and flowers. Accordingly, we assessed the inhibitory effects on elastase and tyrosinase in seventeen particularly selected methanolic extracts obtained from various flower petal varieties cultivated in Serbia. Our analysis revealed that petals exhibit significantly more pronounced inhibitory effects, expressed as IC50 values, on elastase compared to tyrosinase. White peony (Paeonia lactifora) (230 ± 1 μg/mL), pelargonium (Pelargonium peltatum) (206 ± 3 μg/mL) and purple rose (Rosa centifolia, purple) (222 ± 8 μg/mL) emerged as the most potent elastase inhibitors, surpassing the reference compound epigallocatechin gallate (348 ± 9 μg/mL). Additionally, the lowest IC50 value for tyrosinase inhibition was attributed to lilac (Syringa vulgaris) petal extract (272 ± 28 μg/mL), which was compared to the standard compound kojic acid (50 ± 14 μg/mL). In conclusion, white peony, pelargonium, purple rose, and lilac represent promising candidates for further investigation and incorporation into cosmetic products, showcasing their potential to effectively address skin-related concerns.

abstract = "The cosmetic industry is currently experiencing substantial growth, accompanied by a surge in the number of consumers. Due to natural ingredients' safety and efficiency, an increasingly prominent trend in this industry is the design of herbal-based cosmetic products and formulations. To meet demand, integrating innovative natural resources like plant-based formulations is essential [1]. Skin ageing-related enzymes, elastase and tyrosinase, contribute to the emergence of aesthetic issues such as wrinkles, freckles, and loss of elasticity, as well as hyperpigmentation and melasma [2]. Hence, there is an increasing focus on finding inhibitors for enzymes associated with skin ageing. The fact is that plant metabolites, particularly phenolic acids and flavonoids, are frequently concentrated in plant leaves and flowers. Accordingly, we assessed the inhibitory effects on elastase and tyrosinase in seventeen particularly selected methanolic extracts obtained from various flower petal varieties cultivated in Serbia. Our analysis revealed that petals exhibit significantly more pronounced inhibitory effects, expressed as IC50 values, on elastase compared to tyrosinase. White peony (Paeonia lactifora) (230 ± 1 μg/mL), pelargonium (Pelargonium peltatum) (206 ± 3 μg/mL) and purple rose (Rosa centifolia, purple) (222 ± 8 μg/mL) emerged as the most potent elastase inhibitors, surpassing the reference compound epigallocatechin gallate (348 ± 9 μg/mL).
