The trypsin-like activity of mixed saliva in orthopedic patients after implant placement was monitored. Proved negative impact on the processes of repair of background somatic pathology (peptic ulcers and 12 duodenal ulcers), justify the application of immunomodulator "Erbisol" as a drug that speeds up the repair processes during implantation. At present, the relevant issues are those related to the development of inflammatory complications at the stage of rehabilitation of patients, especially in the presence of somatic pathology and the study of the tissue complex of the implantation zone. Peptic ulcer disease occupies one of the main places in the structure of lesions of the digestive system. The close interdependence between the pathology of internal organs and the oral cavity is confirmed by numerous observations and studies.Implant placement is accompanied by changes in the enzymatic activity of mixed saliva. The presence of somatic pathology (ulcerative disease of the stomach and 12 duodenal ulcers) often leads to more long-term violations of the enzymatic activity of saliva. The use of the drug "Erbisol" in orthopedic dentistry accelerates the repair process, as evidenced by the earlier periods of normalization of the enzymatic activity of mixed saliva, after the installation of implants.Regular and timely monitoring of the condition of the periarticular tissues, as well as objective diagnosis of early inflammatory complications, are necessary to ensure the reliability and long-term functioning of prosthetic structures installed on implants in the oral cavity.It can be concluded that the purpose of our study was to study the trypsin-like activity (TPA) of mixed saliva after implant placement on the background of somatic pathology.

Background: Recently, research has been carried out to improve the efficiency of electronic devices in general. With the commercial search for consolidated materials and the growth in demand with monitoring of costs, research has sought to minimize these effects with the replacement or functionalization of other substances, which may be applied at lower costs without compromising operating yields already achieved. Objective: This work aimed to obtain molecular modeling and reactivity parameters of -caprolactam and o-phenanthroline to evaluate the interaction capacity in the formation of molecular systems. Conductance measurements were taken to observe the electrolytic behavior. Infrared and UV-visible spectra were recorded to characterize vibrational transitions and evaluate spectrochemical properties. Methods: The WebLab program was used to obtain structural data and calculate reactivity parameters. Conductance was obtained in QUIMIS Q-405 equipment. IR spectra were recorded on PERKIN ELMER FRONTIER equipment. UV-vis spectra were recorded in a SHIMADZU equipment 200 – 1000 nm range to record the main transitions. Results and Discussions: Electron donor atoms are centered mainly on oxygen and nitrogen, respectively, which are sterically more favorable. The behavior was non-electrolyte. Groups with vibrational transitions sensitive to chemical interactions are comprised of C=N, C-N, and C=O bonds. The  parameter indicates transitions in the 190 – 300 nm region and the near-infrared, and the oscillator strength is typical of molecules used as dyes and sensitizers in optical light-emitting systems or light-to-electricity converters. Conclusions: We observed that these ligands have a donor capacity for the formation of complex systems that meet the need for electron transfer in optical pumping devices for the intensification of transitions or radiation converters, which can also be applied in radiation-to-electricity converter systems.

Background: This study explores the potential use of biomass residues from soybean pressing via static pyrolysis to produce carbonaceous materials for pesticide adsorption. It emphasizes concerns regarding the environmental impact of agroindustrial waste and the persistent nature of pesticides in soil and water systems. Aims: To investigate the efficacy of biochar obtained from soybean waste in adsorbing pesticides. Specifically, to analyze the gas products generated during pyrolysis and characterize the obtained carbonaceous material for its adsorption capabilities. Methods: Soybean residue underwent static pyrolysis at various temperatures and durations. Gas analysis utilizing FTIR spectroscopy identified the gaseous products generated during the pyrolysis process. The obtained biochar underwent successive washes and characterization through FTIR spectra comparison with commercial activated carbon. Through absorption assays, using UV-VIS spectroscopy, investigations were conducted on the solid biocarbon fractions to evaluate their capacity for absorbing pesticides. Results: Gas Analysis: The study revealed the production of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and highlighted the prevalence of mono-carbon compounds with increased temperature and pyrolysis time. The analysis demonstrated consistent carbon mass percentages across different reaction conditions. Characterization of Biochar: Comparison with activated carbon indicated structural similarities with heightened intensity in certain bands, suggesting the presence of incomplete cellulose cracking in the obtained biochar. Regarding the Chlorothalonil, Atrazine and DIcamba remotion, notably, the concentration of Chlorothalonil in a 7:3 water: acetonitrile solution decreases by 77 % through adsorption on the carbons. Discussion: The investigation examined the adsorption efficiency of the biochar for Chlorothalonil, Atrazine, and Dicamba from aqueous solutions. Chlorothalonil exhibited substantial retention by the biochar, while Atrazine showed comparatively lower adsorption effectiveness. Remarkably, Dicamba did not demonstrate retention by either the biochar or activated carbon. Conclusion: The study underscores the potential of pyrolyzed soybean waste for pesticide adsorption, particularly highlighting Chlorothalonil's strong affinity with the carbonaceous structure. Further research is needed to optimize adsorption properties and explores potential enhancements of these materials through additional treatment methods, offering promising avenues for environmental remediation.
