The use of medicinal plants for treating various diseases dates back thousands of years and has been a part of many cultures around the world. Various parts of plants, including roots, leaves, and flowers, and their extracts have been used to develop remedies to cure different ailments like fever, pain, inflammation, infections, among others. In this research, the aerial parts of both Salvia varieties were extracted with ethanol and water to obtain infusion and decoction, separately. S. sericeotomentosa var. hatayica Celep & Doğan (SH) and Salvia sericeotomentosa Rech. f. var. sericeotomentosa (ST) plants were chemically analyzed for polar compounds using LC-HRMS for the first time. All SH and ST extracts were found to be very rich in rosmarinic acid, salvianolic acid B, hispidulin-7-O-glucoside, and caffeic acid. The study also investigated the antiinflammatory and carbonic anhydrase inhibition properties of the most abundant secondary metabolites extracted from SH and ST. In silico studies were conducted for the first time to explore the effects of these metabolites on TNF-α, iNOS, and human carbonic anhydrase isoenzymes (hCAI and hCAII). Salvianolic acid B should be considered a strong antiinflammatory agent and a carbonic anhydrase I and II inhibitors due to low binding energy scores with the tested enzymes (TNF-α: -12.391 kcal/mol), (iNOS: -7.547 kcal/mol), (hCAI: -7.877 kcal/mol), and (hCAII: -4.312 kcal/mol).

In this study, viologen-tetrasubstituted Zn(II) phthalocyanines (PcV1 and PcV2) were designed and synthesized to achieve the tunable optical features via redox-active viologen groups. Several parameters relevant to the evaluation of the tunable optical features have been investigated: UV-Vis, cyclic voltammetry (CV), EPR, square wave voltammetry (SWV), and theoretical analyses. The results showed that upon reductions and oxidations of viologen groups either chemically or electrochemically, the optical features of PcV1 and PcV2 change drastically with switchable processes. These outcomes indicate that achieving control over optical features of large organic chromophores such as Pc with our rational design can be used for the design of new complex organic electronic materials.

Subtle engineering for the generation of a biosensor from a conjugated polymer with the inclusion of fluorine-substituted benzothiadiazole and indole moieties is reported. The engineering includes the electrochemical copolymerization of the indole-6-carboxylic acid (M1) and 5-fluoro-4,7-bis(4-hexylthiophen-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (M2) on the indium tin oxide and graphite electrode surfaces for the investigation of both their electrochemical properties and biosensing abilities with their copolymer counterparts. The intermediates and final conjugated polymers, Poly(M1) [P-In6C], Poly(M2) [P-FBTz], and copoly(M1 and M2) [P-In6CFBTz], were entirely characterized by 1 H NMR, 13C NMR, CV, UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometry, and SEM techniques. HOMO energy levels of electrochemically obtained polymers were calculated from the oxidation onsets in anodic scans as -4.78 eV, -5.23 eV, and -4.89 eV, and optical bandgap (Egop) values were calculated from the onset of the lowest-energy Π-Π* transitions as 2.26 eV, 1.43 eV, and 1.59 eV for P-In6C, P-FBTz, and P-In6CFBTz, respectively. By incorporation of fluorine-substituted benzothiadiazole (M2) into the polymer backbone by electrochemical copolymerization, the poor electrochemical properties of P-In6C were remarkably improved. The polymer P-In6CFBTz demonstrated striking electrochemical properties such as a lower optical band gap, red-shifted absorption, multielectrochromic behavior, a lower switching time, and higher optical contrast. Overall, the newly developed copolymer, which combined the features of each monomer, showed superior electrochemical properties and was tested as a glucose-sensing framework, offering a low detection limit (0.011 mM) and a wide linear range (0.05-0.75 mM) with high sensitivity (44.056 µA mM-1 cm-2).

Ketamine is used in medicine because of its anaesthetic and antidepressant effects at low doses. Unfortunately, due to its narcotic effect when used at high doses, its abuse among young people is increasing. It is also one of the most common drugs used in rape. Therefore, there is a need for fast and inexpensive tests that can be performed on-site. With the advancement of nanotechnology, nanoparticle-based approaches have found their place in selective analyses as in many fields. In the developed method, firstly gold nanoparticles were modified with melamine (AuNPs@Mel). Under optimized conditions, hydrogen bonds formed between ketamine and AuNPs@Mel cause the red colour of AuNPs@Mel to shift to blue-purple (i.e. aggregation-induced surface plasmon absorption shift). The association between absorbance and concentration produced a calibration line (curve) having a linearity correlation coefficient of 0.9981 for ketamine concentrations ranging from 4.76 to 47.6 mg L-1. The detection limit of the proposed method was 1.5 mg L-1 and the RSD (relative standard deviation) values of concentrations were changed ranging from 5.2% to 8.2%. The intra-assay and inter-assay measurements using the suggested method resulted in coefficients of variation (CVs) of 5.7% and 8.5%, respectively. Scan transmission electron microscopy (STEM), UV-vis spectrophotometry and FTIR spectroscopy were used to characterize the synthesized and modified AuNPs. Additionally, the procedure was successfully carried out with some interference materials and a real sample of fetal bovine serum. Lastly, using the Student t-test and F tests, the suggested technique was compared to and confirmed against an LC-MS/ MS procedure previously published

The development of new fuel sources to replace nonrenewable fossil fuels has received substantial attention due to the ongoing demand for fossil fuels. Biomass and raw waste materials are crucial sources to produce suitable alternative fuels instead of nonrenewable fuels and offer a greener approach. Therefore, improving the fuel properties of biooils produced from the thermochemical conversion of biomass and raw waste materials is critical as it is used as an alternative to nonrenewable fuel. Developing an economical and eco-friendly method to produce sustainable and renewable oil by improving biooil containing large amounts of phenolic compounds has become imperative. One of the most intriguing and promising technologies for refining biooil to produce renewable fuels of comparable quality to conventional fossil fuels is the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO)-based process for converting biooil to renewable fuels. This method is almost one of the best improving methods described in the literature. At this point, it is of great importance that the HDO process is carried out catalytically. Carbon materials are preferred for both designing catalysts for HDO and supporting metal nanoparticles by providing chemically inert surfaces and tunable functional groups, high surface area and active sites. The HDO of biomass and raw waste materials has significantly advanced thanks to carbon-based catalysts. In this review, the effect of the surface character and catalytic ability of the carbon support, especially prepared by the green synthesis technique, on the HDO reaction during biooil improvement is discussed. Moreover, HDO reaction parameters and recent studies have been investigated in depth. Thus, green carbon catalysts? role in clean fuel production via the HDO process has been clarified.

The interaction of drugs with DNA is important for the discovery of novel drug molecules and for understanding the therapeutic effects of drugs as well as the monitoring of side effects. For this reason, many studies have been carried out to investigate the interactions of drugs with nucleic acids. In recent years, a large number of studies have been performed to electrochemically detect drug-DNA interactions. The fast, sensitive, and accurate results of electrochemical techniques have resulted in a leading role for their implementation in this field. By means of electrochemical techniques, it is possible not only to demonstrate drug-DNA interactions but also to quantitatively analyze drugs. In this context, electrochemical biosensors for drug-DNA interactions have been examined under different headings including anticancer, antiviral, antibiotic, and central nervous system drugs as well as DNA-targeted drugs. An overview of the studies related to electrochemical DNA biosensors developed for the detection of drug-DNA interactions that were reported in the last two decades in the literature is presented herein along with their applications and they are discussed together with their future perspectives.

We demonstrate in this work the practical use of uniform mixtures of a bioresin shellac and four natural clays, i.e. montmorillonite, sepiolite, halloysite and vermiculate as dielectrics in organic field effect transistors (OFETs). We present a thorough characterization of their processability and film forming characteristic, surface characterization, elaborate dielectric investigation and the fabrication of field effect transistors with two classic organic semiconductors, i.e. pentacene and fullerene C60. We show that low operating voltage of approximately 4 V is possible for all the OFETs using several combinations of clays and shellac. The capacitance measurements show an improvement of the dielectric constant of shellac by a factor of 2, to values in excess of 7 in the uniform mixtures of sepiolite and montmorillonite with this bioresin.

ABC-type triblock copolymers, namely poly[(ethylene glycol)methyl ether]-block-poly(tert-butyl methacrylate)-block-poly[2-N-(diisopropylamino)ethyl methacrylate] (MPEG-b-PBuMA-b-PDPA), were first synthesized and then the middle blocks were successfully converted into poly(methacrylic acid) to obtain MPEG-b-PMAA-b-PDPA zwitterionic triblock copolymers. These block copolymers were soluble in water and formed micellar aggregates with complex cores via hydrogen bonding interactions between MPEG and PMAA blocks below pH 4.0. When the pH was between 5.0 and 7.0, due to charge compensation between partially protonated PDPA and partially ionized PMAA blocks, micelles with polyion complex cores were observed. If the solution pH was above 8.0, deprotonation of tertiary amine groups provided a hydrophobic character to the PDPA block, which resulted in the formation of PDPAcore micelles while MPEG/anionic PMAA hybrid blocks formed hydrated coronas. Intermediary layer cross-linked (ILCL) micelles from PDPA-core micelles were also prepared by cross-linking the inner PMAA shell. The hydrophobic drug dipyridamole (DIP) was used to investigate the release profile of ILCL micelles. DIP can be loaded to the PDPA cores of the micelles in basic aqueous media. An increase in the degree of cross-linking causes slower release for the model drug. It was concluded that the more complex matrix formation in the intermediary layer of the micelles via cross-linking retards the drug release from the core.

Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) is one of the most essential emission processes in most circumstances because of its dual emission band in most cases and its high Stokes shifts. These distinguishing properties make ESIPT-based probes more suitable for a variety of applications, including analyte sensors, solid-state sensing mechanisms, optical technologies, and biomarkers for endogenous or exogenous compounds in various settings. As a result, researchers around the world are working on ESIPT emissions and developing different scaffolds for various applications or industry demands. This field of study is rapidly expanding and there is a need for an up-to-date review of synthesis methodologies and applications. This paper provides the highlights of ESIPT-based heterocyclic scaffolds, synthesis strategies, and application scenarios in the literature from 2017 to 2023

Cancer, becoming increasingly common globally, has a high mortality rate. Despite the much research on diagnosis and treatment methods, the benefits of technological developments, and newly developed sensor devices, cancer is still one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Early detection using powerful and noninvasive tools could be a future focus for prognosis and treatment follow-up. Therefore, electrochemical biosensors can be a strong choice for the detection of cancer biomarkers (such as alpha-fetoprotein, cytochrome c, prostate-specific antigen, myoglobin, carcinoembryonic antigen, alpha-fetoprotein, a cancer antigen, epidermal growth factor receptor, vascular endothelial growth factor, circulating tumor cell, and breast cancer antigen 1/2) due to their advantages such as high sensitivity, excellent selectivity, low cost, short analysis time, and simplicity. Furthermore, electrochemical biosensors are better suited for point-of-care applications due to their mass production and miniaturization ease. This review provides an overview of different electrochemical measurement techniques, bioreceptor surfaces, signal production and amplification, and the integration of electrochemical-modified sensors. Cancer biomarkers based on electrochemical biosensors were given in detail. In addition, studies with MIP-based sensors and immunosensors have been extensively discussed. Integrating electrochemical biosensors with cancer biomarkers was also emphasized as a new research trend. Finally, we provide an overview of current advances in measuring and analyzing cancer biomarkers using electrochemical biosensors and detail current challenges and future perspectives
