TL;DR: In this paper, an alternating multinode mixing method was proposed to enhance the mixing of fluids in a microchannel using ultrasonic waves, which was shown to reduce the mixing time by two orders of magnitude compared to diffusion.
Abstract: We present a technique for mixing the fluids in a microchannel using ultrasonic waves. Acoustic mixing is driven by the acoustic body force, which depends on the density gradient and speed of the sound gradient of the inhomogeneous fluid domain. In this work, mixing of fluids in a microchannel is achieved via an alternating multinode mixing method, which employs acoustic multinode standing waves of time-varying wavelengths at regular time intervals. The proposed technique is rapid, efficient, and found to enhance the mixing of fluids significantly. It is shown that the mixing time due to acoustic mixing (2–3 s) is reduced by two orders of magnitude compared to the mixing time only due to diffusion (400 s). Furthermore, we investigate the effects of the acoustic mixing on different fluid flow configurations and sound wave propagation directions as they have a direct influence on mixing time and have rarely been addressed previously. Remarkably, it is found that mixing performance is strongly dependent on the direction of the acoustic wave propagation. The acoustic field propagated parallel to the fluid-fluid interface mixes fluids rapidly (2–3 s) as compared to the acoustic field propagated perpendicular to the fluid-fluid interface (40 s).

TL;DR: In this article, a facile synthesis of diversely substituted quinazolines and 3,4-dihydroquinazoline through the o-iodoxybenzoic acid mediated tandem reaction of readily available o-aminobenzylamine and aldehydes was demonstrated.
Abstract: We have demonstrated a facile synthesis of diversely substituted quinazolines and 3,4-dihydroquinazolines through the o-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) mediated tandem reaction of readily available o-aminobenzylamine and aldehydes. The yield of the reactions generally ranged from 70% to 95%. This mild protocol provides an efficient strategy toward the synthesis of these classes of heterocycles.

TL;DR: It is reported that the oxidative metabolite of thalidomides, dihydroxythalidomide, is responsible for generating ROS and causing DNA damage and it is shown that catalase, radical scavengers, and desferal are capable of inhibiting DNA damage.
Abstract: Thalidomide [α-(N-phthalimido)glutarimide] (1) is a sedative and antiemetic drug originally introduced into the clinic in the 1950s for the treatment of morning sickness. Although marketed as entirely safe, more than 10 000 babies were born with severe birth defects. Thalidomide was banned and subsequently approved for the treatment of multiple myeloma and complications associated with leprosy. Although known for more than 5 decades, the mechanism of teratogenicity remains to be conclusively understood. Various theories have been proposed in the literature including DNA damage and ROS and inhibition of angiogenesis and cereblon. All of the theories have their merits and limitations. Although the recently proposed cereblon theory has gained wide acceptance, it fails to explain the metabolism and low-dose requirement reported by a number of groups. Recently, we have provided convincing structural evidence in support of the presence of arene oxide and the quinone-reactive intermediates. However, the ability ...
