PLASTIC POLYMERS AND ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE IN AN ANTARCTIC ENVIRONMENT (ROSS SEA): ARE WE REVEALING THE TIP OF AN ICEBERG?

Plastic Polymers and Antibiotic Resistance in an Antarctic Environment (Ross Sea): Are We Revealing the Tip of an Iceberg?

Microbial colonization of plastic polymers in Antarctic environments is an under-investigated issue.While several studies are documenting the spread of plastic pollution in the Ross Sea, whether the formation of a plastisphere (namely the complex microbial assemblage colonizing plastics) may favor the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) i

Crystal Structure, Hirshfeld Surface Analysis, In-Silico and Antimycotic Investigations of Methyl 6-methyl-4-(4-nitrophenyl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxylate

Herein, we report the preparation of methyl 6-methyl-4-(4-nitrophenyl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxylate 2, obtained by the regioselective oxidative dehydrogenation of the dihydropyrimidine derivative 1 in the presence of cerium ammonium nitrate.The structure of compound 2 was investigated Collections by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC
