Background: Carry out an in silico study of chemical substances isolated from the species: Drimys angustifolia and Drimys brasiliensis. Methods: A theoretical study of global reactivity, QSAR descriptors, MEP construction and molecular docking was performed to analyze the interaction of substances with acetylcholinesterase of Drosophila melanogaster and the prediction of skin permeation and toxicological properties of t Read More

Aims: To develop an efficient protocol, which involves an exploration of the catalytic potential of both the room temperature and surfactant ionic liquids towards the synthesis of biologically important derivatives of 2-aminothiazole. Objective: Specific heat capacity data as a function of temperature for the synthesized 2- aminothiazole derivatives has been advanced by exploring their thermal profiles. Methods: The ther Read More

Aim: To study the specific heat capacity for biologically and medicinally important compounds, namely, lidocaine hydrochloride, clove oil and beta-Piperine using the DSC technique. Background: One of the main problems in the science of medicine is the application of drug molecules with limited solubility in water and in biofluids. Solubility is related to the chemical potential of the solutes involved, which imparts free energy Read More

Background: The spread of bacterial infections has become a growing concern to human beings particularly in the medical and food packaging industry. Such infection may also result due to the adhesion of microbes from the environment. Polyvinyl chloride is a versatile polymer used in medical devices and food packaging materials, need to be modified to enhance antibacterial activity. Objective: The main focus of the p Read More

Aim: The micellization behavior of cationic surfactants has been studied in the presence of food additives. Objectives: Micellization behaviour of cationic surfactants, Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide (CTAB) and Tetradecyltrimethylammonium Bromide (TTAB) has been studied in water and in various concentrations of salts (food additives) L-glutamic acid, sodium propionate, sodium citrate tribasic dihydrate and disodium tar Read More

Background: Thermoelectric material with high performance and low cost is the basic need of today. Bismuth selenide is a thermoelectric material. A set of bismuth selenide thin films having different stoichiometry ratios varying Bi/Se ratio from 0.123 to 0.309 have been prepared. Objective: The present work deals with the synthesis and characterization of various thin films of bismuth selenide. The thermoelectric properties of thi Read More
