An in silico ensemble method for lead discovery: decision forest

Recent progress in combinatorial chemistry and parallel synthesis has radically changed the approach to drug discovery in the pharmaceutical industry. At present, thousands of compounds can be made in a short period, creating a need for fast and effective in silico methods to select the most promising lead candidates. Decision forest is a novel pattern recognition method, which combines the results of multiple distinct but comparable decision tree models to reach a consensus prediction. In this article, a decision forest model was developed using a structurally diverse training data set containing 232 compounds whose estrogen receptor binding activity was tested at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)'s National Center for Toxicological Research (NCTR). The model was subsequently validated using a test data set of 463 compounds selected from the literature, and then applied to a large data set with 57,145 compounds as a screening example. The results show that the decision forest method is a fast, reliable and effective in silico approach, which could be useful in drug discovery.     

Thermal decomposition of ammonium vanadyl oxalate supported on various oxides

The thermal decomposition of ammonium vanadyl oxalate supported on La₂O₃, MgO, SiO₂, Al₂O₃, ZrO₂, TiO₂, SAPO-5, and ZSM-5 oxides in a dynamic atmosphere of dry air was compared by thermal gravimetric analysis (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The calcined catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD). The TG and DTA results demonstrate that the surface acid-base properties of the oxides play a significant role in the decomposition behaviour of the supported ammonium vanadyl oxalate, i.e. the basic oxides exhibit an endothermic effect and the acidic oxides show an exothermic effect. Two mechanisms are suggested for thermal decomposition of ammonium vanadyl oxalate on basic and acidic oxides, respectively. After transformation of the ammonium vanadyl oxalate to vanadia, subsequent rearrangement of the vanadia on the surface of the supports was also observed. During the thermal treatment or calcination in air, solid state reactions of vanadia with the surface of oxides such as La₂O₃, ZrO₂ and TiO₂ took place to form new phases.

The oxygen reduction reaction at silver electrodes in high chloride media and the implications for silver nanoparticle toxicity

The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at neutral pH in various aqueous chloride-containing solutions was investigated voltammetrically. In particular, the ORR was performed in high chloride containing aqueous media including authentic and synthetic seawater under oxygen saturated conditions and compared with that in aqueous nitrate and perchlorate media. The experimental voltammograms revealed a two-electron process forming hydrogen peroxide in low chloride media. In contrast, high concentration chloride solutions, including both synthetic and authentic seawater showed an increase of overpotential, accompanied by a splitting of the voltammetric peak into two one-electron features indicating the formation of superoxide in the first step and its release from the silver-solution interface. The implications for silver nanoparticle toxicology are discussed given the markedly greater toxicity of superoxide over peroxide and the high levels of chloride in biological media as well as in seawater.

以Ｈ２Ｓ和ＣＳ２作硫化剂，用ＰＰＳ和ＴＰＤＳ方法研究了水煤气变换催化剂ＣｏＭｏＫ／γ－Ａｌ２Ｏ３的硫化及反硫化过程。用Ｈ２Ｓ／Ｈ２硫化时，只发现Ｈ２Ｓ的消耗和Ｈ２Ｏ的生成，用ＣＳ２／Ｈ２硫化时，只发现Ｈ２Ｓ的消耗和Ｈ２Ｏ的生成。用ＣＳ２／Ｈ２硫化时，首先生成ＣＯ２，然后是ＣＨ４，Ｈ２Ｏ和Ｈ２Ｓ，ＴＰＧ实验表明催化剂表面上积炭，造成催化剂和活性降低，但积炭在水煤变换反应进行了逐渐除法。ＴＰＤＳ实验表     

金属酞菁化合物在TiO2表面的分散研究

Dispersion of copper(Ⅱ) phthalocyanine (CuPc), copper(Ⅱ) phthalocyaninesulfonate (CuPcS) and cobalt(Ⅱ)phthalocyaninetetrasulfonate (CoPcTS) on the surface of titanium dioxide was investigated by XRD, XPS, FT-IR and UV-Vis techniques. Results show that interaction between CuPc and TiO2 was very weak and CuPc was difficult to disperse on the surface of the support. While partly sulfurized CuPcS could be dispersed on the surface of support through sulfo-groups and its dispersion capacity was determined to be 0.085 g CuPcS/g TiO2. Completely sulfurlzed CoPcTS could also be dispersed on the surface of TiO2 as a monolayer and its dispersion capacity was 0.12 g CoPcTS/g TiO2. Interactions of the sulfo-groups as well as the electrons of CoPcTS with the surface of TiO2 could be evidenced by FT-IR characterization. Therefore, it was suggested that CoPcTS molecules be adsorbed on the surface of TiO2 in a flat-lying mode while CuPcS in a slanting one. UV-Vis spectra show that the dispersed CuPcS and CoPcTS molecules exist in both forms of monomers and dimers.
