RESUMO

We have successfully synthesized a new Ni(II)-based coordination polymer (CP) [Ni2(cis-1,4-chdc)2(4,4'-bpy)3(H2O)2] (1); (cis-1,4- H2chdc=cis-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid and 4,4'-bpy=4,4'-bipyridine) employing slow diffusion method in a single pot technique. The connectivity of Ni(II) ions and bridging cis-1,4-chdc ligand gives rise to a three-dimensional (3D) framework with 2-fold interpenetrated diamondoid topology. Interestingly, the synthesized CP acts as efficient catalyst for electrocatalytic water splitting. The water oxidation activity of compound 1 exhibits Tafel slope equivalent to 361.48 mV.dec-1 for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and 353.53 mV.dec-1 for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline medium while almost similar values of Tafel slope for HER and OER equivalent to 287.33 mV.dec-1 and 289.93 mV.dec-1 respectively in acidic medium. Thus, the compound 1 has excellent efficacy in catalyzing HER and OER in acidic as well as alkaline medium, which is ascribed to its distinctive 3D architecture.

RESUMO

Modern civilization has been highly suffering from energy crisis and environmental pollutions. These two burning issues are directly and indirectly created from fossil fuel consumption and uncontrolled industrialization. The above critical issue can be solved through the proper utilization of green energy sources where no greenhouse gases will be generated upon burning of such materials. Hydrogen is the most eligible candidate for this purpose. Among various methods of hydrogen generation, electrocatalytic process is one of the most efficient methods because of easy handling and high efficiency. In these aspects Co-based nanomaterials are considered to be extremely significant as they can be utilized as efficient, recyclable and ideal catalytic system. In this article a series of Co-based nano-electrocatalysts has been discussed with proper structure-property relationship and their medium dependency. Therefore, such type of stimulating summary on recently reported electrocatalysts and their activity may be helpful for scientists of the corresponding field as well as for broader research communities. This can be inspiration for materials researchers to fabricate active catalysts for the production of hydrogen gas in room temperature.

RESUMO

The development and utilization of coordination polymers (CPs) have drawn interest for potential applications in different fields. Detection of metal ions in efficient and selective manners is an important field of research. It paves the way to protect human health by balancing toxic metal ions and biologically active metal ions in the atmosphere. In this regard, a new one-dimensional (1D) 4-(1-naphthylvinyl)pyridine (4-nvp) based CP [Cd(NCS)2(4-nvp)2]n (1) was synthesized and characterized structurally by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Interestingly, this 1D CP underwent supramolecular aggregation via π⋯π stacking interactions, which specifically generated an environment for a potent "turn on" response in the presence of trivalent cations (Fe3+, Al3+, and Cr3+) in the nanomolar range but remained silent in the presence of other metal ions. Density functional theory (DFT) computations and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were performed to establish the sensing phenomena. Fascinatingly, utilizing the sensitivity of 1 in an aqueous medium, a hands-on portable cotton swab kit was developed for instant identification of these three important trivalent metal cations.

RESUMO

Energy is the center of importance for the survivability of civilization. Use of fossil fuel is going to be suspended, and renewable energy is technologically costlier. In the quest for new energy sources and to minimize fuel expenditure, the design of energy efficient devices is one of the solutions. Toward this objective, highly delocalized π-acidic N-hetreocycle pyrazine bridged Cd(II)-based coordination polymers (CPs), [Cd(tppz)(adc)(MeOH)] (1), [Cd(tppz)(trep)] (2), and [Cd(tppz)(2,6-ndc)] (3; tppz = 2,3,5,6-tetrakis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine) are synthesized in combination with π-accessible dicarboxylato linkers (acetylene dicarboxylic acid (H2adc), terephthalic acid (H2trep), and 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid (2,6 H2ndc)). The structures of the compounds, 1-3, have been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurements. Analysis of electrical property demonstrates that light irradiation enhances the conductivity and follows the order 3 > 2 > 1; compound 3 possesses the highest conductivity (1.93 × 10-3 (light), 1.12 × 10-4 S m-1 dark)), than 2 (1.80 × 10-4 (light), 1.10 × 10-4 S m-1 (dark)) and 1 (5.06 × 10-5 (light), 4.72 × 10-5 S m-1 (dark)). This light-induced electrical conductivity can pave the way toward fabrication of an active electronic device by using the discussed materials.

RESUMO

Multidimensional applicability of functional materials is one of the focal attractions in today's scientific research. Highly stable and crystalline coordination polymers served as one of the active members in the club of multifunctional materials. Toward this concept, a 3-dimensional (3D) coordination framework, {[Zn2(tdc)2(pcih)2]n} (1) (tdc2-, 2,5-thiophene dicarboxylate; pcih, pyridine-4-carboxaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazine), is designed and has been structurally well characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. One of the carboxylate groups of tdc2- chelates to Zn(II), while the other carboxylato group (-COO) acts as bridging-O to neighboring Zn(II); the pcih serves as pyridyl-N bridging motif to two Zn(II) centers. The optical band gap, 3.83 eV (Tauc's plot), implies probable semiconducting ability of the material. Interestingly, the device fabricated using compound 1 measures the electrical conductivity, 2.21 × 10-5 S cm-1, and series resistance (Rs), 807 Ω, at the dark phase, which are improved significantly to 6.36 × 10-5 S cm-1 and 460 Ω, respectively, under illumination conditions. Isoniazid, used to synthesize pcih and hence the Zn(II) compound 1, is a medicine; so, the medicinal efficiency of 1 is checked by measuring the anticancer activity against MDA-MB-231, HeLa, HCT-116, and HepG2 cells. It is observed that drug efficacy is highest on MDA-MB-231 cells (IC50: 19.43 ± 1.36 µM) than other cancer cells [IC50: 24.43 ± 2.02 µM (HeLa), 26.06 ± 3.48 µM (HCT-116), and 44.28 ± 3.04 µM (HepG2)]. Therefore, the material has significant contribution in the area of energy and health toward the sustainable development goals.

RESUMO

The design and synthesis of electrically conductive coordination polymers (CPs) are of special interest due to their applications in the fabrication of many environmentally benign emerging technologies, such as molecular wires, photovoltaic cells, light emitting diodes (LEDs), field effect transistors (FETs) and Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs). Owing to their structural flexibility, easy functionality and adjustable energy levels, CPs are promising candidates for providing a better pathway for superior charge transport. Again, the utilization of visible light as an external stimulus to control and manoeuvre the electrical properties of the CPs is exceptionally motivating for the development of many optoelectronic devices, such as photodetectors, photo-switches, photodiodes and chemiresistive sensors. The applications of such materials in devices will solve questions regarding the energy crisis and environmental concerns. This study provides an overview of the recent advances in the development of photo-responsive CPs and the possibility of their application in developing optoelectronic devices. In this regard, a thorough literature survey was performed and the studies related to the fabrication of photosensitive conducting CPs for applications in optoelectronic devices are listed.

RESUMO

Pyridyl-substituted imidazoquinoline, a potent fluorescent framework, is advantageous to architect multifunctional coordination networks for sensing and fabricating emergent electrical conductors. In this work, a Cd(II)-based one-dimensional (1D) coordination polymer (1D CP), [Cd(glu)2(pbiq)2(H2O)]n (1), [H2glu = glutaric acid and pbiq = 4-(6-(pyridin-4-yl)benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]quinazoline)], has been structurally confirmed by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The H-bonding and π···π interactions built a three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular structure that strongly emits at 416 nm in acetonitrile suspension. Potentially intrusive nitroaromatics (NAs) and trinitrophenol (TNP) selectively quench the strong emission of 1, and the highest quenching is noted in the case of TNP. A detection limit (limit of detection (LOD)) of 1.51 × 10-7 M for TNP is determined. The band gap (3.31 eV) of 1 recognizes semiconducting behavior, and an electronic device is fabricated. The correlation of current vs voltage (I-V plot) reveals a substantial non-ohmic electrical conductivity of 1 (Λ: 1.10 × 10-5 S m-1) along with a low energy barrier (ΦB: 0.69), and the series resistance (Rs) becomes 6.21 kΩ.

RESUMO

Photoluminescence activity of coordination polymers (CPs) has evoked intricate applications in the field of materials science, especially sensing of ions/molecules. In the present study, 2,3,5,6-tetrakis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine (tppz) and 5-aminoisophthalate (HAIPA-) coordinated to Cd(II) to architect a coordination polymer, {[Cd(HAIPA)(tppz)(OH)]·3H2O}n (CP1) which unveils blue emission in an aqueous acetonitrile (98% aqueous) suspension. The emission is selectively quenched by Pd2+ only without interference in the presence of as many as 16 other cations. The structure of CP1 shows the presence of a free -COOH group, and the interlayer (-CO)O(2)···O(7) (OC-) distance, 4.242 Å, along with the π···π interactions (3.990, 3.927 Å), may make a cavity which suitably accommodates only Pd2+ (van der Waal's radius, 1.7 Å) through the Pd(II)-carboxylato (-COO-Pd) coordination. The stability of the composite, [CP1 + Pd2+] may be assessed from the fluorescence quenching experiment, and the Stern-Volmer constant (KSV) is 7.2 × 104 M-1. Therefore, the compound, CP1, is a promising sensor for Pd(II) in a selective manner with limit of detection (LOD), 0.08 µM. The XPS spectra of CP1 and [CP1 + Pd2+] have proven the presence of Pd2+ in the host and the existence of a coordinated -COO-Pd bond. Interestingly, inclusion of Pd2+ in CP1 decreases the band gap from 3.61 eV (CP1) to 3.05 eV ([CP1 + Pd2+]) which lies in the semiconducting region and has exhibited improved electrical conductivity from 7.42 × 10-5 (CP1) to 1.20 × 10-4 S m-1 ([CP1 + Pd2+]). Upon light irradiation, the electrical conductivities are enhanced to 1.45 × 10-4 S m-1 (CP1) and 3.81 × 10-4 S m-1 ([CP1 + Pd2+]); which validates the highly desired photoresponsive device applications. Therefore, such type of materials may serve as SDG-army (sustainable development goal) to battle against the environmental issues and energy crisis.

RESUMO

Dynamic photoactuating crystals have become a sensation due to their potential applications in developing smart medical devices, molecular machines, artificial muscles, flexible electronics actuators, probes and microrobots. Here we report the synthesis of two iso-structural metal-organic crystals, [Zn(4-ohbz)2(4-nvp)2] (1) and [Cd(4-ohbz)2(4-nvp)2] (2) {H4-ohbz = 4-hydroxy benzoic acid; 4-nvp = 4-(1-naphthylvinyl)pyridine} which undergo topochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition under UV irradiation as well as sunlight to generate a dimerized product of discrete metal-complex [Zn(4-ohbz)2(rctt-4-pncb)] {rctt-4-pncb = 1,3-bis(4'-pyridyl)-2,4-bis(naphthyl)cyclobutane} (1') and one-dimensional coordination polymer (1D CP) [Cd(4-ohbz)2(rctt-4-pncb)] (2') respectively, in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal (SCSC) process. The Zn-based compound demonstrates photosalient behaviour, wherein crystals show jumping, splitting, rolling, and swelling upon UV irradiation. However, the Cd-based crystals do not show such behaviour maintaining the initial supramolecular packing and space group. Thus the photomechanical behaviour can be induced by choosing a suitable metal ion. The above findings are thoroughly validated by quantitative density functional theory (DFT) calculations which show that the Zn-based crystal shifts towards an orthorhombic structure to resolve the anisotropic UV-induced mechanical strain. Furthermore, the mechano-structure-property relationship has been established by complimentary nanoindentation measurements, which are in-line with the DFT-predicted single crystal values.

RESUMO

In the existing leanings of environmental and national security issues, establishment of appropriate sensors for explosive as well as pollutant nitroaromatic compounds may be considered as one of the most prodigious job for material researchers. In the current study a new Cd(II) based 1D ladder coordination polymer (CP), [Cd(4-bpd)(3-cbn)2]n, has been synthesized and well characterized through single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Interestingly, the supramolecular assembly of this compound has efficiently identified 2,4,6-trinitrophenol through fluorescence quenching method. The Stern-Volmer coefficient (Ksv) has been calculated as 6.047 × 103 M-1, which can be attributed to the quenching of the emission intensity. The limit of detection (LOD) has been determined as 0.260 µM following the 3σ method along with almost 95% fluorescence intensity reduction. FESEM study revealed that the crystalline nature of the compound has been altered upon interaction with the above mentioned nitroaromatic analyte. Theoretical studies were performed to get the insight idea of fluorescence quenching mechanism which also substantiated the experimental observation. The present study can pave the way for the fabrication of future generation technology in sensor field.

RESUMO

Four new Cu(II)-based hexagonal complexes with the metallomacrocycle formulae [Cu6(5-nip)6(3-py)6(H2O)12] (1), [Cu6(5-nip)6(3-Clpy)6(H2O)12] (2), [Cu6(5-nip)6(3-Brpy)6(H2O)12] (3), and [Cu6(5-nip)6(3-Ipy)6(H2O)12] (4) have been synthesized using 5-nitroisophthalic acid (H25-nip) and pyridine (py)/3-halopyridine (3-Xpy; X = Cl, Br, and I) ligands. The structural features and supramolecular interactions of compounds 1-4 have been investigated using the single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) technique. Interestingly, the hexagonal complexes undergo hydrogen bonding and π···π stacking interactions to form fascinating two-dimensional (2D) honeycomb-like structures. The synthesized complexes exhibit high electrical conductivity, arising from charge transport through space via π···π contacts. However, complexes containing 3-Brpy (3) and 3-Ipy (4) exhibit photosensitivity due to the presence of halogens with a larger size and lower ionization energy. The conductivity results are also in accordance with the theoretical prediction calculated by density functional theory (DFT) study.

RESUMO

The coordination polymer, (Zn(II)-CP, 1), {[Zn(2,6-NDC)(4-Cltpy)](H2O)4} (1) (2,6-H2NDC = 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid and 4-Cltpy = 4'-chloro-[2,2';6',2″]terpyridine) is structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction measurement and other physicochemical studies (PXRD, FTIR, thermal analysis, microanalytical data). 4-Cltpy acts as end-capping ligand, and NDC2- is a carboxylato bridging motif to constitute ZnN3O2 distorted trigonal bipyramid core that propagates to construct 1D chain. The coordination polymer, 1, detects total iron (Fe3+ and Fe2+) in aqueous solution by visual color change, colorless to pink. Absorption spectrophotometric technique in aqueous medium measures the limit of detection (LOD) 0.11 µM (Fe2+) and 0.15 µM (Fe3+), and binding constants (Kd) are 6.7 × 104 M-1 (Fe3+) and 3.33 × 104 M-1 (Fe2+). Biocompatibility of 1 is examined in live cells, and intracellular Fe2+ and Fe3+ are detected in MDA-MB 231 cells. Zn(II) substitution is assumed upon addition of FeIII/FeII solution to the suspension of the coordination polymer, 1, in water-acetonitrile (41:1) (LZnII + FeIII/II → LFeIII + ZnII, where L is defined as coordinated ligands), which is accompanied by changing from colorless to pink at room temperature. The color of the mixture may be assumed to the charge transfer transition from carboxylate-O to Cltpy via Fe(II/III) bridging center (carboxylate-O-Fe-CltPy). The product isolated from the reaction is finally characterized as Fe(III)@1-CP. It is presumed that product Fe(II)@1-CP may undergo fast aerial oxidation to transform Fe(III)@1-CP. The FeIII exchanged framework (Fe(III)@1-CP) has been characterized by PXRD, IR, TGA and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX)-SEM. The MTT assay calculates the cell viability (%), and the tolerance limit is 100 µM to total Fe2+ and Fe3+.

RESUMO

A Zn(II) based one-dimensional (1D) coordination polymer (CP), [Zn(cis-1,4-chdc)(4-nvp)] (1) {cis-1,4-H2chdc = cis-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid and 4-nvp = 4-(1-naphthylvinyl)pyridine}, undergoes a solid-state photochemical [2+2] cycloaddition reaction, accompanied by mechanical motion, wherein crystals show swelling, jumping, splitting and bursting upon UV irradiation, whereas the analogous Cd(II) CP [Cd(cis-1,4-chdc)(4-nvp)] (2) does not show any such response under UV light, although it undergoes [2+2] photodimerization. The present study can certainly provide the fundamental understanding for designing smart photoactuating materials.

RESUMO

In the age of sustainable development, the exploration of multifunctional materials is of high priority due to their economic benefits and environmental suitability. A stable luminescent coordination polymer, [Zn2(tdc)4(pdiq)3] (1), (pdiq = pyridyl-imidazoquinazoline; H2tdc = 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid) has been prepared and structurally confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The 3D framework consists of a distorted octahedral geometry with a ZnO4N2 coordination sphere where four carboxylato-O donations come from two tdc2- as bridging ligands and two pyridyl-Ns come from two pdiq. The π⋯π interactions between the imidazolium and phenyl groups bestow robustness on the architecture. The compound is chemically stable to water, shows tolerance to acid/base aqueous solutions (pH = 2-12), and is stable to the impact of organic solvents. The high dispersibility of Zn-MOF (1) in acetonitrile may enhance the fluorescence intensity compared to that in water, which prompted fluorescence measurements in the former solvent and it is used for the efficient and selective turn-off ratiometric sensing of Al3+ ions (LOD, 1.39 × 10-7 M). In addition, the fluorescence emission of 1 is instantly quenched by trinitrophenol (TNP) and the LOD is 1.54 × 10-7 M. The Tauc's plot is used to measure the semiconducting band gap (3.33 eV) and the electrical conductivity is significantly increased upon illumination (Λ: 1.14 × 10-3 S m-1 (dark), 5.35 × 10-3 S m-1 (light)) and the energy barrier declines marginally (FB: 0.57 (dark), 0.49 (light)). Transit time (τ) and diffusion length (LD) at the quasi-Fermi level were analyzed to offer information on the charge transport mechanism of the compound. The better performance on photo-irradiation signifies the enhanced charge transfer kinetics of a Zn-MOF coated thin-film device (TFD 1), which encourages its application in semiconductor devices.

RESUMO

A Zn(II) based two-dimensional metal-organic framework (2D MOF) [Zn2(suc)2(4-nvp)2] (1) [H2suc = succinic acid and 4-nvp = 4-(1-naphthylvinyl)pyridine] exhibits a "photosalient effect" under UV light as well as sunlight along with the release of a stereoselective cyclobutane ligand, 1,3-bis(4'-pyridyl)-2,4-bis(naphthyl)cyclobutane (rctt-4-pncb). Photolysis of in situ generated MOF in solution also leads to the formation of rctt-4-pncb crystals. Interestingly, compound 1 shows a high selectivity for Pd(II) sensing in aqueous medium.

RESUMO

A new versatile azide-bridged polymeric Cu(II) complex, namely, [Cu(L)(µ1,3-N3)]∞ (1), was synthesized utilizing an N,N,O-donor piperidine-based Schiff base ligand (E)-4-bromo-2-((2-(-1-yl)imino)methyl)phenol (HL), obtained via the condensation reaction of 1-(2-aminoethyl) piperidine and 5-bromo salicylaldehyde. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that complex 1 consists of an end-to-end azido-bridged polymeric network, which is further rationalized with the help of a density functional theory (DFT) study. After routine characterization with a range of physicochemical studies, complex 1 is exploited to evaluate its biomedical potential. Initially, theoretical inspection with the help of a molecular docking study indicated the ability of complex 1 to effectively bind with macromolecules such as DNA and the human serum albumin (HSA) protein. The theoretical aspect was further verified by adopting several spectroscopic techniques. The electronic absorption spectroscopic analysis indicates a remarkable binding efficiency of Complex 1 with both DNA and HSA. The notable fluorescence intensity reduction of the ethidium bromide (EtBr)-DNA adduct, 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI)-DNA adduct, and HSA after the gradual addition of complex 1 authenticates its promising binding potential with the macromolecules. The retention of the canonical B form of DNA and α form of HSA during the association of complex 1 was confirmed by implementing a circular dichroism spectral study. The association ability of complex 1 with macromolecules further inspired us to inspect its impact on different cell lines such as HeLa (cervical cancer cell), PA1 (ovarian cancer cell), and HEK (normal cell). The dose-dependent and time-dependent in vitro 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay suggests an effective antiproliferative property of complex 1 with low toxicity toward the normal cell line. Finally, the anticancer activity of complex 1 toward carcinoma cell lines was analyzed by nuclear and cellular staining techniques, unveiling the cell death mechanism.

RESUMO

With the recent progress of biological and environmental research, detection of pH values has become one of the most indispensable requirements. To determine the pH values of a certain medium, organic Schiff base compounds and their derivatives have been observed to play pivotal roles because of their smooth synthetic roots, easily tuneable structural architecture, non-destructive signals of emission, visually differentiable colour generation and capability of real sample analysis. Therefore with the revolutionary upgradation of wavelength radiometric techniques, the construction of molecular structures which can exhibit dual emission and absorption characteristics and which can be regulated by the change in pH values, has been a stimulating challenge. Generally a pH sensor molecule has a chromophoric or fluorophoric portion. Normally heteroatoms attached to these chromophore units either get protonated or deprotonated in acidic or basic media which gives rise to changes in absorption and emission properties of the molecule.

RESUMO

Reaction of Zn(NO3 )2 ⋅ 6H2 O, maleic acid (H2 mal) and trans-4-(1-naphthylvinyl)pyridine (trans-nvp) in the dark results in the formation of a one-dimensional coordination polymer (1D CP) [Zn(mal)(trans-nvp)] (1), which is photosalient in nature. The crystals of 1 pop violently under UV light and moderately in sunlight, and generate cyclobutane ligands. However, the same reaction mixture kept in visible light exhibits the rare example of in situ isomerization of both ligands: cis-trans transformation of maleate and trans-cis isomerization of the nvp ligands, and subsequent formation of another 1D CP [Zn(fum)(cis-nvp)2 (H2 O)2 ] (2, H2 fum=fumaric acid), which is found to be photoinert. Thus, altering the reaction condition from dark to visible light gives rise to photosalient to photoinert crystals.

RESUMO

Multi-responsive and selective sensor design is one of the stimulating research areas in the sensors field. We have designed a pyrazolyl-hydroxy-coumarin scaffold, 7-hydroxy-4-methyl-8-(((5-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)imino)methyl)-2H-chromen-2-one (H2L) and characterized it by spectroscopic techniques (1H NMR, 13C NMR, ESI-MS, IR). The single crystal X-ray diffraction measurement confirms the molecular structure of the probe. It shows the selective sensing of Zn2+ in the presence of sixteen other cations with 'Turn On' approach through the enhancement of green florescence ((λem = 499 nm; λex = 390 nm) in CH3CN/H2O (99 : 1, v/v; HEPES buffer, pH 7.5) medium with the limit of detection (LOD) of 34.76 nM. The structural depiction of the isolated Zn2+ complex reveals cage like metallocryptand cyclic hexamer, [Zn6L6] with 30.9% void of cavity along the crystallographic c axis of approximate dimension of 7.502 × 7.050 × 7.068 Å3. The diffusion NMR study reveals only one type of complex in the solution, having 1 : 1 composition, i.e., Zn2+ : H2L, which affirms the isolated form of the complex. On the other hand, the receptor, H2L, recognizes the very noxious anion CN- out of sixteen anions. The product identification using spectroscopic techniques supports the nucleophilic addition of CN- across the exocyclic imine (CN) bond, which shows blue emission ((λem = 447 nm; λex = 390 nm), and the LOD was 19.91 nM. The composition of [H2L-Zn2+] and [H2L-CN-] was established by 1H NMR titration, Job's method, ESI-MS, and FTIR spectra. The efficacy of the probe was further studied using MTT assay in MDA-MB 231 and WI-38 cell line as well as for the intracellular imaging of Zn2+ and CN- using a fluorescence microscope. Flow Cytometry was further performed for the quantitative analysis of Zn2+ distribution in MDA-MB 231 cells.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Since its first identification in December 2019, in WUHAN (CHINA), SARS-COV-2, causative agent of Corona virus pandemic, has affected millions of people worldwide, causing thousands of death. There is much speculation about the interplay between ACEI/ARB and Corona virus infection, as for internalization into host cell SARS-COV-2 binds through S spike protein to ACE-2, aided TMPRSS2. METHODS: A record based observational study has been conducted (data obtained from the clinics of fourteen physicians) in two worst affected districts of West Bengal, to find out the association of ACEI/ARB on patients, suffering from Corona virus infection. The study-protocol has already been approved by Clinical Research Ethics Committee of Calcutta School of Tropical Medicine. (IEC Ref. No: CREC-STM/2020-AS-37) Results: Increasing age, male sex and presence of co-morbidities (viz. Diabetes, COPD) are significantly associated with the occurrence of moderate and severe disease. Drugs (viz. ACEI/ARB), though are associated with less severe disease, have not achieved statistical significance, in the present study. CONCLUSION: Drugs, like ACEI/ARB, should be continued in patients suffering from COVID-19 infection, (if they are already on these drugs).
