Abstract Efficient determination of proteinogenic amino acid is great relevance, and evaluating the intrinsic interaction this interest with nanotubes play a crucial role in adsorption sensing mechanism, determining measurement index. As such, study apparently sought to examine (proline) on bare surfaces carbon boron nitride, nitride doped aluminum element nanotubes. In accordant geometric optimization, different dispersion models: PBE0, ωB97XD, M06‐2X, B3LYP‐D3(GD3BJ) were used; note that latter used only wave function analysis studies. Studies show strongest belongs (BNAl dop NT), similar more negative energy ‐0.719, ‐1.393, ‐1.001, ‐1.098eV respectively for various benchmarked functionals utilized study. Then highest strength was obtained nanotube (BNNT), at end (i.e. BNAl NT > BNNT BC 2 NNT). tandem energetic carried out suggests might be potent preferred candidate (proline molecule)among other studied nanotubes, respect their respective values

While hydrogen combustion generates a lot of energy and can be done in variety ways, the primary challenge utilizing is obtaining an efficient storage material. Herein, potential Ga12As12 as adsorbent material was investigated within framework density functional theory (GGA-DFT) computations at B3LYP-GD3BJ/def2tzvp level theory. The study systematically conducted by increasing number molecular adsorptions (n = 1–4) Ga- As- sites Results showed that adsorption on As site preferred binding this closer to DoE requirement. Via DFT-GGA with incorporation D3 dispersion, we demonstrated nanocluster store up four hydrogens calculated gravimetric wt % 5.71%, 6.5 proposed DoE. Average energies for both Ga were observed −0.49 −0.84 eV, respectively, which range H2 according electronic properties, thermodynamics, state disclosed linear relationship increase adsorption. This trend also seen energy, shows higher molecules nanocage increases. Ab initio dynamics simulations divulged studied system considerably stable room temperature extreme temperatures. Based utilization GGA exchange correlations, confirmation stability via ab MD simulations, high desorption (1454 K), computed (5.71), close standard (6.5%), strongly believe proper surface engineering could further improve overall properties suitability toward applications.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an increasingly common bacterial infection that poses a serious threat to human health. MRSA resistant many antibiotics, making it particularly difficult treat. To address this issue, the density functional theory (DFT) approach was employed in study examine thiophene- and thiazole-containing carbohydrazides for their biological activities. Quantitative experimental spectroscopic results were obtained compared theoretical. The FMO reactivity parameters revealed superior activity of compound 6G gas phase, polar non-polar solvents according data. Additionally, molecular electrostatic potential (MESP) analysis non-covalent interaction (NCI) indicated 6F contained more weak steric repulsion interactions, while featured minimal van der Waals forces attraction. Also, had highest stabilization energy NBO which show better donor - acceptor charge transfer electron delocalization. Molecular docking analyses with standard drugs showed higher binding affinities 3VSL than CIPRO. in-silico suggests have great bioactivity tackling MRSA.
