Gel sequencing experiments with end-labeled synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotides have established that 2-phenylbenzimidazole (PBZ) and the common sunscreen constituent 2-phenylbenzimidazole-5-sulfonic acid (PBSA) function as efficient photosensitizers of DNA damage when they are exposed to UV-B (290-320 nm) radiation or natural sunlight. Although

This study aims to prepare of biocomposite of carboxymethyl chitosan (CM-chitosan) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) from Ananas comosus (pineapple) peel for use as broad spectrum sunscreen carrier. Biocomposite was produced by using ferulic acid (FA), a plant extract, as crosslinker with

The sunscreen agent 2-phenylbenzimidazole-5-sulfonic acid (PBSA) and its parent 2-phenylbenzimidazole (PBI) cause DNA photodamage via both Type-I and Type-II mechanisms when UVB irradiated. We have studied the photophysical and photochemical properties of these compounds and their ability to photogenerate reactive
Starting from a series of our new 2-phenylbenzimidazole derivatives, shown to be selectively and potently active against the bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), we developed a hierarchical combined experimental/molecular modeling strategy to explore the drug leads for the BVDV RNA-dependent
We have studied the influence of terminal substituents, amidinium group and N-methylpiperazine ring, of 2-phenylbenzimidazole compounds (1-6; Figure 1) on their DNA-binding modes. Experimental results reveal that 1-3 are accepted in intercalation pockets owing to structural flexibility of the N-methylpiperazine
