    Bacterial biofilms provoke and/or promote the most chronic and recurrent infectious diseases. Previously, experimental models of purulent peritonitis and meningoencephalitis revealed positive antibiofilm effect of metallic nanoparticles and the absence of resistance against such nanoparticles in microorganisms. This study examines

    The gas-phase substitution reactions of methyl chloride and 1,3-dimethyluracil (at the N1-CH(3)) are examined computationally and experimentally. It is found that, although hydrochloric acid and 3-methyluracil are similar in acidity, the leaving group abilities of chloride and N1-deprotonated 3-methyluracil are
