Ara-C is widely used to culture neurons and exclude non-neuronal cells. In this study, Raman spectra obtained from neurons exposed to ara-C were plotted using an analytical model of neuronal development to evaluate the impact of ara-C on neuronal development. After two days of culturing, neurons were exposed to ara-C for 24 h at final concentrations of 0 (control), 5, and 25 μM. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed to build an analytical model for evaluating neurodevelopmental disorders caused by ara-C treatment. We projected the Raman spectra obtained from ara-C-treated cells onto the control group dataset. The distribution of PC1 scores for neurons exposed to ara-C at a final concentration of 5 μM was not significantly different from that of the control group. In contrast, under a final concentration of 25 μM, the data population at 10 and 15 days of culturing overlapped significantly with that of neurons at 4 days of normal culturing. These results suggest that Raman spectroscopy can detect very small physiological alterations in the neurons even after a short-term exposure (24 h) of ara-C.

IO-QDs were synthesized within 6 h using L-leucine as a surface modifier, achieving a more efficient route. Upon interaction with TCy, IO-QDs exhibited a significant decrease in fluorescence response and observable color changes, while fluorescence lifetime remained consistent regardless of TCy presence. Moreover, IO-QDs' fluorescence response remained stable across various temperatures. The Förster resonance energy transfer distance of less than 2 nm and a quenching constant of 2.90 × 10¹² M^-1s^-1 indicated static quenching in the presence of TCy. Additionally, significant changes in observed and corrected fluorescence efficiency suggested the involvement of the inner filter effect in the fluorescence quenching of IO-QDs. The synthesized IO-QDs were then utilized for selective and rapid fluorescence-based TCy detection, showing a linear range of 0.5 to 80 μM. Simultaneously, a colorimetric method for TCy detection was established, demonstrating a good linear relationship within the range of 0.5 to 20 μM. The detection limits for TCy were determined as 0.539 and 0.329 μM using fluorescence and colorimetric approaches, respectively.

However, its low aqueous solubility limits its oral absorption, resulting in low bioavailability. In this study, we have successfully discovered a novel cocrystal with 2-methyl resorcinol (ART-2MRE) providing improved solubility compared with a previously reported cocrystal with resorcinol (ART-RES). Single crystal X-ray structure analysis revealed that the ART-2MRE cocrystal was composed of ART and 2MRE in a molar ratio of 2 : 1. Though the ART-2MRE and ART-RES cocrystals were found to have similarities in their crystal structures, with one layer of a cocrystal former and two layers of ART arranged in alternating rows, the ART-2MRE cocrystal showed higher dissolution rate than ART-RES cocrystal. In situ real-time low-frequency (LF) Raman monitoring and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) measurements of the crystals during the dissolution test proved useful to investigate the dissolution behavior of the cocrystals. Low-frequency Raman monitoring revealed that as dissolution progressed, there was a continuous shift from the peak unique to the ART-2MRE cocrystal to the peak unique to the ART stable form. Similar observations were obtained in PXRD measurements as well. Furthermore, experiments were conducted by adding a polymer to the dissolution test solution to investigate the dissolution behavior under supersaturation, indicating the possibility of differences in the dissolution behavior between the ART-2MRE cocrystal and ART-RES cocrystal.

These may originate from host rocks, vein fillings, or the primary copper ore mineralization. In this study, azurites (and also green malachites) from three important Central European deposits with a potential of being exploited for pigment usage already in the Middle Ages have been studied, together with azurite from Chessy, France, with a different geological setting. Using electron probe microanalysis and, more importantly, laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy for trace elemental analysis, several indicators were pinpointed as important for provenance: characteristic elemental fingerprint of the deposit, e.g., elevated lead (Pb) in combination with rare earth elements, may be combined with zinc (Zn)/arsenic (As) ratio (indicating sources of excess Zn in the primary deposit) and the overall amount of metal impurities (suggesting the source mineral of copper for azurite formation). In addition, malachites from the same deposits were found to preferentially incorporate primary ore metal elements as well as Cd, Mg, Mn, or U. Therefore, if azurite pigment contains an elevated amount of malachite as an impurity, it may significantly influence the overall elemental composition. The results obtained on geological samples were applied to two micro-samples of works of art containing azurite-rich layers originating from the 13th-14th and 16th centuries. It was shown that it is highly beneficial to focus on the overall trace elemental composition of the paint layer and not on the admixed mineral grains, as their presence, especially in minute micro-samples, is largely accidental and thus not representative. Although a higher number of samples need to be studied in the future, the newly described criteria made it possible to exclude some of the localities of the employed azurite pigment.
