Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to chemical entities for the detection of wounds, e.g., chronic wounds or infected wounds, including compositions, substrates, kits, dressing materials, and articles, and systems containing such compounds. The disclosed technology further relates to methods of using these compositions, kits and systems in diagnostic assays, and in the diagnosis and/or detection of chronic or infected wounds based on enzymatic action on specific moieties and/or reaction sites. The disclosed technology additionally relates to detection of pathogenic, e.g., bacterial and/or viral substances, such as enzymes and substrates, at the wound situs. Additional disclosure relates to methods of characterizing wounds based on expression of a plurality of markers and using such information to treat, manage, and follow-up patients suffering from chronic or infected wounds.

Abstract: Lysosomally accumulated substances that release a nitroxy group, or a short chain fatty acid or a product of anaerobic metabolism or a thiol or a sulfide often from an ester or similar labile linkage have anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and anti-bacterial activity. They are useful in treating infectious, inflammatory and malignant disease.

Abstract: The invention relates to a nitration method having the following principles: a phosgene species is converted with two equivalent silver nitrates into a double-mixed anhydride of carbonic acid and nitric acid, known here as carbonic acid dinitrate (I). Said operation is carried out in situ, and the formed dinitrate decomposes spontaneously. In addition to carbon dioxide, nitrate ions and nitronium ions are formed, said ions comprising electrophiles which are necessary for nitration. The solution which is used is acetonitrile, and is insignificant if the alcohol species is dissolved or suspended. The necessary equivalent silver nitrates are introduced into the system and optionally heated or cooled to the desired temperature. Subsequently, the acid chloride is introduced slowly, drop by drop or slowly little by little. Phosgene, diphosgene, triphosgene and chloroformic acid ester can be used as carbonic acid dichloride and monochloride, and their thiocarbonic acid analogues.
