The current agricultural sector is not only in its most vulnerable state but is also becoming a threat to our environment due to expanding population and growing food demands along with worsening climatic conditions. In ...

In the present study, the inhibitory effect of propylthiouracil (PTU) on bovine liver catalase (BLC) activity was studied in the presence of curcumin (CUR). The results suggest that the PTU-induced decrease in BLC activity ...

Cost-effective and highly active borohydride oxidation reaction (BOR) electrocatalysts are crucial for the advancement of direct borohydride fuel cells (DBFCs). Noble-metal electrocatalysts, such as Pd, are used as benchmark ...

Microplastics (MPs) have become widespread in the modern world posing a hidden threat to the global environ-ment. However, growing accumulation and devastating impact of MPs on human health and the environment have received ...

New bromotyrosine derived secondary metabolites have been isolated from the marine sponge Psammaplysilla purpurea, and the structures assigned on the basis of spectroscopic analyses of their acetates 1a' and 1b'.

Metal-thiolate complexes have been the focus of research for several years because of their unique photophysical properties and their use as a precursor for synthesizing various well-defined metal nanoclusters. A rational ...

We investigated the thermal behavior of bimetallic Bi-Mo and Bi-W carbonyl complexes, [Mo(CO)(5)(BiPh3)] and [W(CO)(5)(BiPh3)] respectively, to understand the mechanism of decomposition. TGA-DTA, TGA-MS, FTIR, powder XRD ...
