Review of Nephelium lappaceum and Nephelium ramboutan-ake: A High Potential Supplement

Nephelium lappaceum (N. lappaceum) and Nephelium ramboutan-ake (N. ramboutan-ake) are tropical fruits that gain popularity worldwide due to their tastiness. Currently, their potential to be used as pharmaceutical agents is underestimated. Chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes and aging have high incidence rates in the modern world. Furthermore, pharmaceutical agents targeting pathogenic microorganisms have been hampered by the growing of antimicrobial resistance threats. The idea of food therapy leads to extensive nutraceuticals research on the potential of exotic fruits such as N. lappaceum and N. ramboutan-ake to act as supplements. Phytochemicals such as phenolic compounds that present in the fruit act as potent antioxidants that contribute to the protective effects against diseases induced by oxidative stress. Fruit residuals such as the peel and seeds hold greater nutraceutical potential than the edible part. This review highlights the antioxidant and biological activities (anti-neoplastic, anti-microbial, hypoglycemic actions and anti-aging), and chemical contents of different parts of N. lappaceum and N. ramboutan-ake. These fruits contain a diverse and important chemical profile that can alleviate or cure diseases.     

Fluorescent sensors for the detection of chemical warfare agents

Along with biological and nuclear threats, chemical warfare agents are some of the most feared weapons of mass destruction. Compared to nuclear weapons they are relatively easy to access and deploy, which makes them in some aspects a greater threat to national and global security. A particularly hazardous class of chemical warfare agents are the nerve agents. Their rapid and severe effects on human health originate in their ability to block the function of acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme that is vital to the central nervous system. This article outlines recent activities regarding the development of molecular sensors that can visualize the presence of nerve agents (and related pesticides) through changes of their fluorescence properties. Three different sensing principles are discussed: enzyme-based sensors, chemically reactive sensors, and supramolecular sensors. Typical examples are presented for each class and different fluorescent sensors for the detection of chemical warfare agents are summarized and compared.     

Monte‐Carlo program for simulating segregation and diffusion utilizing chemical potential calculations

The surface segregation phenomenon was simulated by means of a Chemical Potential Monte‐Carlo (CPMC) model, which is based on the Darken model. The chemical potential equations are rewritten to include the segregation energy associated with the surface layer. Simulations involving the change in chemical potential are performed on a two‐dimensional matrix containing two elements: the solute and the solvent elements. A random selection of an atom inside the matrix initiates the model. The change in chemical potential due to an atomic jump of a randomly selected atom to an adjacent layer is calculated. The largest change in chemical potential directs the atomic motion, complying with the conditions associated with lowering of the Gibbs free energy. Inclusion of the segregation energy (for jumps involving the surface layer) limits the number of atomic jumps from the surface layer to the bulk. Simulated segregation profiles generated by the CPMC model were compared with profiles calculated with both the modified Darken and Fick models. These profiles show that the CPMC model successfully describes both the kinetic and equilibrium conditions associated with surface segregation. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

In-Situ Electronegativity and the Bridging of Chemical Bonding Concepts

One challenge in chemistry is the plethora of often disparate models for rationalizing the electronic structure of molecules. Chemical concepts abound, but their connections are often frail. This work describes a quantum-mechanical framework that enables a combination of ideas from three approaches common for the analysis of chemical bonds: energy decomposition analysis (EDA), quantum chemical topology, and molecular orbital (MO) theory. The glue to our theory is the electron energy density, interpretable as one part electrons and one part electronegativity. We present a three-dimensional analysis of the electron energy density and use it to redefine what constitutes an atom in a molecule. Definitions of atomic partial charge and electronegativity follow in a way that connects these concepts to the total energy of a molecule. The formation of polar bonds is predicted to cause inversion of electronegativity, and a new perspective of bonding in diborane and guanine−cytosine base-pairing is presented. The electronegativity of atoms inside molecules is shown to be predictive of pK_a.     

Cysteine/Penicillamine Ligation Independent of Terminal Steric Demands for Chemical Protein Synthesis

The chemical ligation of two unprotected peptides to generate a natural peptidic linkage specifically at the C‐ and N‐termini is a desirable goal in chemical protein synthesis but is challenging because it demands high reactivity and selectivity (chemo‐, regio‐, and stereoselectivity). We report an operationally simple and highly effective chemical peptide ligation involving the ligation of peptides with C‐terminal salicylaldehyde esters to peptides with N‐terminal cysteine/penicillamine. The notable features of this method include its tolerance of steric hinderance from the side groups on either ligating terminus, thereby allowing flexible disconnection at sites that are otherwise difficult to functionalize. In addition, this method can be expanded to selective desulfurization and one‐pot ligation‐desulfurization reactions. The effectiveness of this method was demonstrated by the synthesis of VISTA (216‐311), PD‐1 (192‐288) and Eglin C.

The technological and economic management of the environmental variable in the pharmaceutical–chemical industry

Industrial risks increate with technological progress. The study of potential risks is routine in the pharmaceutical–chemical industry. Here, like in other industrial activities, a risk coefficient is introduced that varies within space time limits.A control system of environmental safety and health monitoring processes should be based on the data obtained from Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP).The space variable influences the chemical risk coefficient that applies to the whole the production cycle (including waste recycling). For the sake of prevention, many enterprises have adopted the integrated management system, which is now moving to an additional required feature: environment and health protection and safety assurance inside and outside the industrial area (in compliance with UNI, ISO 14000 and OHSAS 18001standards).Our goal is to examine the technological–scientific–environmental changes in the pharmaceutical–chemical sector in order to asses the new extent of chemical regarding management systems.This will entail a cultural change that will call for the necessary economic strategies for industries to implement the appropriate environmental–technological programs.

Chemical Activation of Lignocellulosic Precursors and Residues: What Else to Consider?

This paper provides the basis for understanding the preparation and properties of an old, but advanced material: activated carbon. The activated carbons discussed herein are obtained from “green” precursors: biomass residues. Accordingly, the present study starts analyzing the components of biomass residues, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, and the features that make them suitable raw materials for preparing activated carbons. The physicochemical transformations of these components during their heat treatment that lead to the development of a carbonized material, a biochar, are also considered. The influence of the chemical activation experimental conditions on the yield and porosity development of the final activated carbons are revised as well, and compared with those for physical activation, highlighting the physicochemical interactions between the activating agents and the lignocellulosic components. This review incorporates a comprehensive discussion about the surface chemistry that can be developed as a result of chemical activation and compiles some results related to the mechanical properties and conformation of activated carbons, scarcely analyzed in most published papers. Finally, economic, and environmental issues involved in the large-scale preparation of activated carbons by chemical activation of lignocellulosic precursors are commented on as well.     

Study of some palladium-containing chemical modifiers in graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry

Several chemical modifiers based on palladium have been evaluated: the individual Pd(II) and the mixed modifiers Pd + Zr, Pd + W, Pd + Zr + citric acid, Pd + W + citric acid. The mechanisms by which these chemical modifiers stabilize analytes and control atomization have been suggested. Factors that might have an influence on the characteristic mass and non-spectral interferences are discussed. The advantages and limitations of the palladium-tungsten modifiers are shown.     

The Atom in the Chemistry Curriculum: Fundamental Concept, Teaching Model or Epistemological Obstacle?

Research into learners' ideas aboutscience suggests that school and collegestudents often hold alternative conceptionsabout `the atom'. This paper discusses whylearners acquire ideas about atoms which areincompatible with the modern scientificunderstanding. It is suggested that learners'alternative ideas derive – at least in part –from the way ideas about atoms are presented inthe school and college curriculum. Inparticular, it is argued that the atomicconcept met in science education is anincoherent hybrid of historical models, andthat this explains why learners commonlyattribute to atoms properties (such as beingthe constituent particles of all substances, orof being indivisible and conserved inreactions) that more correctly belong to otherentities (such as molecules or sub-atomicparticles). Bachelard suggested that archaicscientific ideas act as `epistemologicalobstacles', and here it is argued thatanachronistic notions of the atom survive inthe chemistry curriculum. These conceptualfossils encourage learners to develop an`atomic ontology' (granting atoms `ontologicalpriority' in the molecular model of matter); tomake the `assumption of initial atomicity' whenconsidering chemical reactions; and to developan explanatory framework to rationalisechemical reactions which is based on thedesirability of full electron shells. Theseideas then act as impediments to thedevelopment of a modern chemical perspective onthe structure of matter, and an appreciation ofthe nature of chemical changes at the molecularlevel.
