The structures of newly compounds were elucidated by elemental and spectral analyses. Three compounds 5a, 5b and 5f were tested for cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines MCF-7, HePG2, HCT 116 and 116 PC-3.

Hydrodistillation was used to extract the EOs and the chemical compositions were analyzed by GC-MS. The antibacterial activity of the EOs were evaluated against four bacterial strains by agar disc diffusion method. Moreover, the antioxidant properties were evaluated by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay method. Perillyl alcohol (13.08%) and phytone (12.64%) were the major compounds detected in the leaves and roots of Cyphostemma adenocaule respectively. Whereas, nootkatone was the principal compound detected in the leaves (30.12%) and roots (26.52%) of Ziziphus spinachristi. The antibacterial activity results showed that, the EOs of Cyphostemma adenocaule and Ziziphus spinachristi displayed the highest inhibition zones against Streptococcus pyogenes (13.67 ± 0.34 and 12.67 ± 0.10 mm respectively) at 10 mg/mL. The antioxidant activity of the EOs were also promising, and the strongest IC50 value (4.15 µg/mL) was calculated for Ziziphus spinachristi (leaves). Thus, the antibacterial and antioxidant properties of the EOs enlighten the use of these plants for the aforementioned activities and as a common ingredients in cosmetic applications.

The biosorption potential of kocho, a possible low-cost new biosorbent for the efficient removal of MB dye from wastewater was investigated. Biosorption experiments were carried out in batch mode to study the effects of biosorbent dosages (0.025-0.2 g), pH (2–10), initial concentrations of MB (10 to 100 mg/L) and contact time (10 to 120 min).The highest removal efficiency of methylene blue dye (94.2%) was recorded at optimum experimental conditions. Following the removal study, it was determined that the pseudo-second order kinetics (R2 = 0.997) and Langmuir isothermal (R 2= 0.996) models may well describe the MB dye biosorption process. Furthermore, this newly developed biosorbent was fairly recyclable up to five cycles without significant loss of re-adsorption efficiency (around 9.6% loss) between 1st and 5th cycle. Thus, the findings of this study revealed that a new kocho biosorbent derived from Ensete ventricosum can be used as a promising low-cost, environmentally friendly and efficient biosorbent for the rapid removal of MB from aqueous solutions.

Acetonitrile and 0.2% formic acid in water were used as eluent. The column temperature was maintained at 25 °C and the optimum detection wavelengths of 273 nm for sulfamethoxazole and 280 nm for ciprofloxacin were used. For both the analytes, the coefficients of determinations (r2) were found to vary from 0.9989 to 0.9997, confirming good linearity in the concentration range of 0.005-100 µg mL-1 for sulfamethoxazole and 0.01-100 µg mL-1 for ciprofloxacin. The LOD and LOQ were in the range of 0.78-1.58 ng mL-1 and 2.24-5.28 ng mL-1, respectively; the RSDs were 0.41-3.21% for intra-day precision and 0.37-6.44% for inter-day precision. The concentrations of the three pharmaceuticals determined ranged from 0.76-1.53 μg mL-1 in the wastewater samples collected from Black Lion Hospital.

According to the findings, L and Q ligands each play the role of a neutral bi-dentate NN and a monobasic bi-dentate ON ligand, respectively. The findings demonstrated an octahedral shape. The density functional theory (DFT) technique was employed, and the quantum chemical descriptors were assessed, to optimize the molecular structure of the compounds. An in vitro investigation was carried out to investigate the antibacterial and antifungal activities of the compounds. According to the findings, the activity of metal complexes as potential candidates for use as antibiotics and antifungals is much greater than that of their free ligands. The in-silico inhibition of the 1fj4 protein was investigated using molecular docking. ZnLQ complex was the one that inhibited the 1fj4 protein with the greatest degree of success. The fact that this is the case lends credence to the notion that these compounds have the potential to function as launchpads for the development of new classes of antibiotics.

The CuO/rGO nanocomposite has a well-defined and homogeneous structure, decreased crystal size, and uniformly distributed CuO nanoparticles tethered to the rGO. X-Ray diffraction confirms the fabrication of 15.1 nm crystalline monoclinic CuO nanoparticles. EDX confirms the composite's composition by detecting Cu, O, and C components. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization (LSV) tests evaluate the CuO/rGO nanocomposite's corrosion resistance. A mild steel plate under an HCl electrolyte with corrosion in the PPM ratio treats the nanocomposite-coated substrate. The composite's synergistic effect is assessed by comparing its corrosion performance to CuO/rGO concentrations in ppm. The corrosion resistance data demonstrate that the CuO/rGO composite improves with inhibitor concentrations of 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 ppm. Adding rGO to the composite protects it and speeds up charge transfer, reducing corrosion and improving stability. The composite's synergistic effect of CuO and rGO provides excellent corrosion resistance regardless of concentration, making it a viable material for corrosion-prone applications. The research develops novel and effective anti-corrosion methods to preserve materials in the food, automotive, and large-scale energy industries.
