The establishment of quantitative relationships between numerous molecular properties and chemical structures is now of great importance to society in understanding and improving environmental, medicinal and technological aspects of life. Quantitative structure-activity (property) relationships (QSA(P)R) relate physical, chemical, physico-chemical, technological and biological properties of compounds to their structure. A major factor driving the widespread use of QSP(A)R models is the rational estimation of properties of new compounds, without first synthesizing and testing them. Some of our

Abstract:
Based on our studies of the biological activity of 2-hydroxybenzamide derivatives, we evaluated the antimicrobial activity of some novel compounds from this class (esters, hydrazides, hydrazones), against bacterial (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus) and fungical (Sacharomyces cerevisiae, Candida albicans) strains using the disc-diffusion method under standard conditions. It was found that all tested compounds present a good activity against the tested microorganisms and they were more active against Candida albicans. The established minimum inhibitory

Topological indices are quantitative measurements that describe a molecule’s topology and are quantified from the molecule’s graphical representation. The significance of topological indices is linked to their use in QSPR/QSAR modelling as descriptors. Mathematical associations between a particular molecular or biological activity and one or several biochemical and/or molecular structural features are QSPRs (quantitative structure-property relationships) and QSARs (quantitative structure-activity relationships).

Abstract:
Emerging (chemical) substances are increasingly found in water sources and must be removed by water treatment systems. However, the treatment efficiency regarding these substances is often unknown. A promising approach is using QSARs (quantitative structure activity relationships) or QSPRs (quantitative structure property relationships) to correlate the existing knowledge of a compound's chemical structure to water treatment process properties, such as a biological activity or physico-chemical property. As UV/H2O2 treatment of water is an important barrier against priority pollutants, a QSAR m

Many important fields of research had a humble origin. In the distant past, A J P Martin’s discovery that amino acids could be separated by paper chromatography and Moore and Stein’s use of columns for quantitative amino acid analysis provided the first steps towards the determination of structure in complex biologically active molecules. They opened the door to reveal the essential relationship that exists between structure and function. In molecular endocrinology, for example, striking advances have been made by chemists with their expertise in the identification of structure working with bi

By keeping the silver content rather similar (about 15–17 wt %) among the sorbents, it was possible to assess the effect of silver dispersion and speciation on the adsorption capacities measured for both adsorbates. In a first part, several characterization techniques (XRD, DRS-UV-Vis, TEM, etc.) were used to probe the state of silver in the calcined and non-calc
