Common Reactivity and Properties of Heme Peroxidases: A DFT Study of Their Origin
(MDPI, 2023-01-28)
[Abstract] Electronic structure calculations using the density-functional theory (DFT) have been performed to analyse the effect of water molecules and protonation on the heme group of peroxidases in different redox (ferric, ...
Effect of Ionizing Radiation on Human Myeloperoxidase: Reaction With Hydrated Electrons
(Elsevier, 2021-11-27)
[Abstract] Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a myeloid-lineage restricted enzyme largely expressed in the azurophilic granules of neutrophils. It catalyses the formation of reactive oxygen species, mainly hypochlorous acid, ...
Phosphate and polyphosphate anion recognition by a dinuclear copper(ii) complex of an unsymmetrical squaramide
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-05-29)
[Abstract] In the search for receptors suitable for the recognition of phosphate or polyphosphate anions, a new unsymmetrical squaramide-based ligand bearing dipicolylamine (dpa) and ethylpiperazine units (L) was designed ...
Combining Constructed Wetlands and UV Photolysis for the Advanced Removal of Organic Matter, Nitrogen, and Emerging Pollutants from Wastewater
(MDPI, 2023-02-23)
[Abstract] This study reports the performance of a three-step lab-scale system including a hybrid digester (HD), a vertical flow (VF) constructed wetland, and a photodegradation (PD) lamp, with two different arrangements ...
Cobalt Impregnation on Titania Photocatalysts Enhances Vis Phenol Photodegradation
(MDPI, 2023-06-01)
[Abstract] One of the main challenges of photocatalysis is to find a stable and effective photocatalyst, that is active and effective under sunlight. Here, we discuss the photocatalytic degradation of phenol as a model ...
Removal of Emerging Pollutants by a 3-Step System: Hybrid Digester, Vertical Flow Constructed Wetland and Photodegradation Post-treatments
(Elsevier, 2022-06-22)
[Abstract] The removal of emerging pollutants from municipal wastewater was studied for the first time using a three-step pilot-scale system: 1) hybrid digester (HD) as first step, 2) subsurface vertical flow constructed ...
On the Dissociation Pathways of Copper Complexes Relevant as Pet Imaging Agents
(Elsevier, 2022)
[Abstract] Several bifunctional chelators have been synthesized in the last years for the development of new 64Cu-based PET agents for in vivo imaging. When designing a metal-based PET probe, it is important to achieve ...
Accelerating water exchange in GdIII–DO3A-derivatives by favouring the dissociative mechanism through hydrogen bonding
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018-12-10)
[Abstract] The GdIII-complexes of DO3A-acetophenone and ortho- or para- hydroxyacetophenone ligands have been investigated to assess the effect of the presence of a phenol group on the relaxivity and on the water exchange ...
Controlling Water Exchange Rates in Potential Mn²⁺-Based MRI Agents Derived From NO2A²⁻
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-02-22)
[Abstract] We report a series of pentadentate ligands based on a 1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4-diacetic acid (H2NO2A) containing different substituents attached to the third nitrogen atom of the macrocyclic unit. Detailed ...
Relevance of Palladium to Radiopharmaceutical Development Considering Enhanced Coordination Properties of TE1PA
(Wiley, 2022-06-10)
[Abstract] The limited use of palladium-103 and -109 radionuclides for molecular radiotherapy is surely due to the lack of appropriate ligands capable of fulfilling all criteria required for application in nuclear medicine. ...
