Review of copper and copper alloys as immune and antibacterial element

This review discussed the relationship among copper, human, and bacteria. Copper plays an important role in human immunity. Copper can boost human immune defense reactions at recommended intake level. The content mainly focused on copper antibacterial activity and copper antibacterial mechanisms. Conclusions stated that copper antibacterial activity is affected by copper homeostasis mechanisms in bacteria, adhesion, humidity, strain specificity, and manufacturing methods of antibacterial agents. For the preparation of particle antibacterial agents and surface antibacterial agents, this review discussed several manufacturing methods, such as sol-gel, cold spray, and biosynthesis belonging to chemical synthesis, physical synthesis, and biological synthesis, respectively. Sol-gel method contributes to the preparation of particle agents and surface agents. Cold spray technique is utilized in synthesis of surface copper agent. Biosynthesis is a novel technology which can be applied in nanoparticle agent preparation.

Design,synthesis, and antimicrobial activity of novel spiroisoxazolo[2,3-b][1,2,4]thiadiazole-2,2′-thiazolidine- 4′-ones and spiroisoxazolo[2,3-b][1,2,4]oxadiazole-2, 2′-thiazolidine-4′-ones

A new synthetic strategy for the synthesis of novel 6-methyl-3′-aryl spiro[isoxazolo[2,3-b][1,2,4]thiadiazole-2,2′-thiazolidin]-4′-ones (9a–9e) and 6-methyl-3′-aryl spiro[isoxazolo[2,3-b][1,2,4]oxadiazole- 2,2′-thiazolidin]-4′-ones (12a–12e) analogs is described. These compounds showed significant antimicrobial activity against all the standard strains.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of some new 2-(3-chloro-1-benzothiophen-2-yl)-3-(substituted-phenyl)-4- (3H)-quinazolinones derivatives

3-Chloro-1-benzothiophene-2-carbonylchloride 1 reacted with anthranilic acid in pyridine to give compound 2. The main aim of the work is to study the behavior of this 4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one toward nitrogen nucleophiles. The compound reacted with aromatic amines, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, formamide, thioglycolic acid, thiosemicarbazide and acid chlorides to give various 3-substituted quinazolinones, respectively. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral data and have been screened for antibacterial and antifungal activity.

     

Ti-Zr-Cu合金的抗菌性能和体外生物相容性

采用平板共培养法测定Ti-Zr-Cu合金表面的菌落数,通过CCK8细胞增殖检测、鬼笔环肽细胞染色观察细胞核和细胞骨架形貌、细胞凋亡和黏附能力测定,研究了Ti-Zr-Cu合金的抗菌性能和体外生物相容性。结果表明,空白样品和Ti-Zr合金表面上的菌落密集,而Ti-Zr-Cu合金表面上的菌落数极少。Ti-Zr-Cu合金对金黄色葡萄球菌和大肠杆菌的抗菌率分别达到98.28%和97.67%,表现出优异的抗菌性能。MC3T3-E1在Ti-Zr-Cu合金表面培养1、4、7 d的相对增值率分别为168.8%、109.8%和106.5%,均高于100%,表明这种合金没有细胞毒性。细胞在Ti-Zr-Cu合金表面上的附着和铺展良好,有利于贴壁细胞在其表面黏附和进一步增值,表明Ti-Zr-Cu合金具有良好的生物相容性。Ti-Zr-Cu合金对细胞凋亡没有不良影响。从Ti-Zr-Cu合金表面细胞的SEM照片可见细胞的粘附正常,也表明其具有良好的生物相容性。

Randomized controlled trial of a cognitive–behavioral motivational intervention in a group versus individual format for substance use disorders.

Although group therapy is widely used for individuals with substance use disorders (SUDs), randomized clinical trials (RCTs) comparing the same treatment in a group versus individual format are rare. This paper presents the results of a RCT comparing guided self-change (GSC) treatment, a cognitive–behavioral motivational intervention, conducted in a group versus individual format with 212 alcohol abusers and 52 drug abusers who voluntarily sought outpatient treatment. Treatment outcomes demonstrated significant and large reductions in clients’ alcohol and drug use during treatment and at the 12-month follow-up, with no significant differences between the group and individual therapy conditions. A therapist time ratio analysis found that it took 41.4% less therapist time to treat clients using the group versus the individual format. Participants’ end-of-treatment group cohesion scores characterized the groups as having high engagement, low levels of interpersonal conflict, and low avoidance of group work, all desirable group characteristics. These findings suggest that the GSC treatment model was effectively integrated into a brief group treatment format. Health care cost containment compels further evaluations of the efficacy of group treatments for SUDs. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)
