  Abstract: Drug substances in water bodies and groundwater have become a significant threat to the surrounding environment. This study focuses on the ability of the nanoporous carbon materials to remove ciprofloxacin from aqueous solutions under specific experimental conditions and on the development of the mathematical model that would allow describing the molecular ...

  Published: Georgios Chrysochoou, Sulev Sild (2024-10-21)

  Abstract: Recent years have seen a substantial growth in the adoption of machine learning approaches for the purposes of quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) development. Such a trend has coincided with desire to see a shifting in the focus of methodology employed within chemical safety assessment: away from traditional reliance upon animalintensive in ...

  Published: Karl Marti Toots, Sulev Sild, Jaan Leis, William E. Acree, Uko Maran (2024-09-02)

  Abstract: This article presents an in-depth investigation into the influence of anionic structures of ionic liquids (ILs) on gas-ionic liquid partition coefficients (log K) of organic solutes in three ILs. While the primary objective was to examine whether there is a relationship between the molecular structure of the IL anion component and log K, additionally it was ...

  Published: Selma Zukic, Uko Maran (2024-08-21)

  Abstract: The pyrimidine heterocycle plays an important role in anticancer research. In particular, the py-rimidine derivative families of uracil show promise as structural scaffolds relevant to cervical cancer. This group of chemicals lacks data-driven machine learning QSAR models that allow for generalization and predictive capabilities in the search for new active ...

  Published: Sam Belfield (2024-03-07)

  Abstract: The replacement of animal testing for endpoints such as reproductive toxicity is a long-term goal. This study describes the possibilities of using simple (quantitative) structure-activity relationships ((Q)SARs) to predict whether a molecule may cross the placental membrane. The concept is straightforward, if a molecule is not able to cross the placental ...

  Abstract: An abnormal hormonal activity or exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can cause endocrine system malfunction. Among the many interactions EDCs can affect is the disruption of estrogen signalling, which can lead to adverse health effects such as cancer, osteoporosis, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, and obesity. ...

  Abstract: Earthworms are among the most important animals (invertebrates) for soil health. Many chemical substances released into nature for agricultural development, such as pesticides, may have unwanted effects on those organisms. However, it is essential to understand the extent of the impact of chemicals on soil health first and then make the proper ...

  Abstract: Intrinsic aqueous solubility is a foundation property for understanding chemical, technological, pharmaceutical, and environmental behavior of drug substances. Despite years of solubility research, molecular structure-based prediction of the intrinsic aqueous solubility of drug substances is still under active investigation. This paper describes the authors’ ...
