The self-degradation process, triggered by stacking TrCBHI and MtCDHA (previously immobilized onto separate RCF), produced 0.15 nmol/min·cm2 of H2O2. Moreover, the production of H2O2 was sustained for at least 24 h reaching a concentration of ∼2 mM. The activity of MtCDHA immobilized on RCF was not affected by reuse for at least 3 days (1 cycle/day), suggesting that no significant enzyme leakage occurred in that timeframe. In the material herein designed, cellulose (regenerated from a 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate/dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solution) serves both as support and substrate for the immobilized enzymes. Selleck STS inhibitor The sequential reaction led to the production of H2O2 at a micromolar-millimolar level revealing the potential use of the material as a self-degradable antimicrobial agent.The DNA glycosylase MutY prevents deleterious mutations resulting from guanine oxidation by recognition and removal of adenine (A) misincorporated opposite 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG). Correct identification of OGA is crucial to prevent improper and detrimental MutY-mediatedadenine excision from GA or TA base pairs. Here we present a structure-activity relationship (SAR) study using analogues of A to probe the basis for OGA specificity of MutY. We correlate observed in vitro MutY activity on A analogue substrates with their experimental and calculated acidities to provide mechanistic insight into the factors influencing MutY base excision efficiency. These data show that H-bonding and electrostatic interactions of the base within the MutY active site modulate the lability of the N-glycosidic bond. A analogues that were not excised from duplex DNA as efficiently as predicted by calculations provided insight into other required structural features, such as steric fit and H-bonding within the active site for proper alignment with MutY catalytic residues. We also determined MutY-mediated repair of A analogues paired with OG within the context of a DNA plasmid in bacteria. Remarkably, the magnitudes of decreased in vitro MutY excision rates with different A analogue duplexes do not correlate with the impact on overall MutY-mediated repair. The feature that most strongly correlated with facile cellular repair was the ability of the A analogues to H-bond with the Hoogsteen face of OG. Notably, base pairing of A with OG uniquely positions the 2-amino group of OG in the major groove and provides a means to indirectly select only these inappropriately placed adenines for excision. This highlights the importance of OG lesion detection for efficient MutY-mediated cellular repair. The A analogue SARs also highlight the types of modifications tolerated by MutY and will guide the development of specific probes and inhibitors of MutY.One-dimensional iodine-rich iodobismuthates(III), Cat3[Bi2I9](I2)3 [Cat = 1,4-MePy (1) and 1-EtBMAP (2)], feature the highest amount of "trapped" diiodine units in polyhalogen-halometalates of p-block elements. Both complexes have narrow optical band gaps (1.55 and 1.63 eV, respectively) and moderate thermal stability.We have synthesized a series of Li1+x(Ni0.5Mn0.5)1-xO2 (LNMO) materials to study the influence of excess lithium ions on the structure and electrochemical behaviors of nickel-manganese-based layered compounds. The increasing content of Li+ ions in the transition-metal (TM) layer leads to the departure of the follower-like clusters to Ni-rich and Mn-rich clusters. The Ni2+ ions in the Li layer couple with adjacent transition-metal ions via strong 180° exchange interactions and moderate the local structure, which leads to magnetic clusters with finite size. Electrochemical performance shows that appropriate Ni2+ ions could improve the cycle stability without decreasing the rate capability. Among them, Li1.1Ni0.45Mn0.45O2 shows a rate capability of 76 mAh g-1 at 1000 mA g-1 and a lifespan of 300 cycles at 200 mA g-1. This work shows that structure moderation has an essential impact on its electrochemical performance. Besides this, the crystal and magnetic combined methods we use could offer a better way of studying cathode materials.Copper dissolution in nitric acid is a historic reaction playing a central role in many industrial processes, particularly for metal recovery from the electronics to nuclear industries. The mechanism through which this process occurs is debated. In order to better understand this process, quantum chemical calculations were performed to elucidate the key steps in the mechanism of copper dissolution in nitric acid. We combine both Kohn-Sham density functional theory and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations to understand the mechanism of the formation of the key products NO2, HNO2, and NO. Our calculations suggest that the mechanisms of formation of NO2, HNO2, and NO are interconnected.

To analyse the compliance of the preventive instructions formulated by the Health Authority against COVID-19 for the de-escalation phase among the industrial and construction sectors in Navarre.

On the basis of those preventive instructions, questionnaires were drawn up to verify their implementation on site. The occupational risk prevention technicians of the Occupational Health Service (OHS) of the Institute of Public and Work Health of Navarre and those of the External Prevention Services (EPS), under the executive coordination of the OHS, visited the enterprises to advise, verify and require, if necessary, compliance with the instructions dictated.

The compliance of the preventive instructions is higher in the industrial sector than in the construction sector. Cleaning practices, hygienic resources and the provision of respiratory protection equipment are widespread. The application of necessary measures in common places (restrooms, dining rooms) are less frequent. There is a lack of informative posters and written corroboration of the preventive instructions. The difference of several results between the OHS and the EPS technicians is remarkable.

Weaknesses have been identified in achieving safe workplaces in the construction and industrial sectors during the de-escalation phase in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. The role of Public Health in the enterprises and the integration of the prevention services in public policies against occupational risks must be reconsidered.
