coptisine/dental caries

OBJECTIVE To optimize the preparation of Coptisine hydrochloride/beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) inclusion complex and analyze the structure of the inclusion complex. METHODS With encapsulation rate as the index of evaluation, different factors influencing the inclusion complex e. g. temperature,

The kinetics of entry into and exit from the cavity of cucurbit[7]uril (CB7) was studied by the stopped-flow method in water at various temperatures using pharmaceutically important natural isoquinoline alkaloids as guest compounds. The rate constant of the alkaloid-CB7 complex dissociation was

Amantadine hydrochloride (AMA) and rimantadine hydrochloride (RIM) are non-fluorescent in aqueous solutions. This property makes their determination through direct fluorescent method difficult. The competing reactions and the supramolecular interaction mechanisms between the two drugs and coptisine

In this work, the competitive interaction between dibucaine and three fluorescent probes (i.e., berberine, palmatine, and coptisine) for occupancy of the cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) cavity was studied by fluorescence spectra, UV-visible absorption spectra, (1)H NMR spectra, and theoretical calculations

Pyrrolizidine alkaloids are secondary plant constituents that became a subject of public concern because of their hepatotoxic, pneumotoxic, genotoxic, and cytotoxic effects. Due to disregardful harvesting and/or contamination with pyrrolizidine alkaloid-containing plants, there is a high risk of

Non-covalent binding of planar aromatic molecules into the S1 specificity pocket of the serine protease α-chymotrypsin (αCHT) can be detected by measuring induced circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopic signals. Utilizing this phenomenon, αCHT association of proflavine (PRF), the well known serine
