TL;DR: In this article, the spatial distribution of 16 PAHs and 8 HMs in 10 contaminated sites of Assam, a state in India, were analyzed and the results confirmed that the non-biodegradable nature of HMs made them stay in the soil for longer periods of time.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the isolation and screening of rhizospheric microflora of chickpea and their role in the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs).
Abstract: BACKGROUND: This work reports the isolation and screening of rhizospheric microflora of chickpea and their role in the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The antifungal potential of AgNPs for control of wilt disease of chickpea, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri (FOC) was evaluated in vitro and in vivo pot experiments. The effect of AgNPs on seed germination and soil community was also evaluated. RESULTS: Among microbial strains, two bacteria, Pseudomonas sp. and Achromobacter sp. and two fungi, Trichoderma sp. and Cephalosporium sp., were identified for biosynthesis of AgNPs. AgNPs were confirmed by UV‐visible spectra (λ = 420 nm) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with size 20–50 nm. AgNPs showed very high antifungal activity (95%) against FOC in vitro at 100 µgmL⁻¹ concentration. Pot experiments showed maximum and minimum reduction in wilt incidence over control, i.e. 73.33% for AgNPs and copper‐oxychloride (CuOCl) i.e. 26.67%, respectively. Seeds coated with AgNPs showed high germinability up to 98% and no negative impact was observed on soil community. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated the role of AgNPs against the fungal disease of chickpea that can be extended to other diseases of chickpea and other important Indian crops. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry

TL;DR: A series of twenty six structurally diverse α-aminophosphonates have been synthesized and evaluated for in vitro anti-leishmanial activity and cytotoxicity using the MTT assay and seven compounds exhibited anti-Leishmanian potency against the L. donovani promastigote.
Abstract: A series of twenty six structurally diverse α-aminophosphonates have been synthesized and evaluated for in vitro anti-leishmanial activity and cytotoxicity using the MTT assay. Among them, seven compounds (1–7) exhibited anti-leishmanial potency against the L. donovani promastigote with IC50 values in the low micromolar range. The structure–activity relationships were quantitatively evaluated by a statistically reliable CoMFA model with high predictive abilities (r2pred = 0.87, r2ncv = 0.985).

TL;DR: Porous cross-linked enzyme aggregates (p-CLEAs) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae invertase are reported for the first time in this article, where they were prepared by adding starch as a pore-making agent in crude invert enzyme solution and co-precipitating with invert enzymes using ammonium sulfate as a precipitating agent.
