The interaction of a multi-component system consisting of benzene-1,4-diyldimethanimine-bridged dimeric zinc-phthalocyanine groups (4OMPCZ) with calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) was investigated using UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence emission spectroscopy methods, and viscosity measurements. The binding constant, Kb, which is an important parameter to gain...

This study aimed for the development of a cost effective and efficient method for L-cysteine detection, without employing expensive instrumentation within a short analysis time. The proposed method has been involved in the photochemical preparation of gold nanoparticles and gold nanoparticles on graphene oxide nanostructures. The gold nanoparticles...

Bimetallic nanoparticles are widely used in chemical catalysis. Their practical performance can be better exploited through morphological control by adjusting the synthetic strategy. Herein, a photochemical synthesis route was used to achieve the controlled preparation of bimetallic Au/Ag BNps. Size and shape control is achieved depending on the ty...

Herein, we report photochemical preparation of functional nano hybrid coating and tuning surface properties with the very small addition of POSS compound to the hydrophobic monomer system. 2-(Carboxymethoxy) thioxanthone and aminopropylisobutyl-POSS were used as the photoinitiating formulation in equimolar amounts for Poly(ethylene glycol) methyl e...

In this study, hybrid nanocomposites were synthesized by photo‐crosslinking of poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate/poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylate monomer system using 2‐ (carboxymethoxy) thioxanthone and POSS‐(PEG2000)8. Additionally, AgNO3 was added to this formulation and in situ formation of silver nanoparticles onto hybrid nanocompo...

In this study, to see the effect of photoreducing agent on the size, shape and distribution of metallic, Ag and Au nanoparticles were synthesized in the presence of a new one component type II photoinitiator namely 2-thioxanthone thioacetic acid-dioxide. In-situ formation of metallic nanoparticles both in solution and polymer matrix was achieved in...

Size, shape and distribution-controlled silver nanoparticles (AgNps) were produced by a rapid and efficient method either in solvent or in polymer matrix by which the silver ion is reduced and a polymer matrix is simultaneously generated in the presence of various photoinitiators by the means of UV light. 2-Mercaptothioxanthone (TX-SH), Thioxanthon...

In this study, a thioxanthone derivative, 2-Thioxanthone Thioacetic Acid (TXSCH2COOH) was used to analyze the type of binding to calf thymus DNA in a physiological buffer (Tris-HCl buffer solution, pH:7.0). Several spectroscopic techniques were employed including UV–Vis absorption and fluorescence emission spectroscopy and viscosity measurements we...

The reaction of salicylaldehyde‐S‐methylisothiosemicarbazone in the presence of ethylenediamine base and iron (III)chloride generated unforeseen homotopic dinuclear triple‐stranded iron (III)helicate. The synthesized helicate was characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV–Vis spectroscopy, magnetic moment measurement, and evaluated cytotoxic activ...

Thioxanthone and its derivatives are the most remarkable molecules due to their vast variety of application such as radiation curing that is, until using them as a therapeutic drug. Therefore, in this study it was intended to use 2-Thioxanthone acetic acid with and without NaCl in Tris HCl buffer solution (pH:7.0) to represent the interaction with...
