TLDR
The aim is to provide readers with an insight on the rational design of metal complexes with DNA recognition properties and an understanding of how the sequence‐specific targeting of these interactions can be achieved for gene engineering applications.
Evaluation of metal-based antimicrobial compounds for the treatment of bacterial pathogens
TLDR
The antibacterial activity, mode of action, and potential for systemic use of a number of metal-based antibacterial complexes are discussed and the current limitations of these compounds are highlighted to determine if metal- based agents are a potential solution for the treatment of bacterial infections, especially those resistant to conventional antibiotics.

Preparation of the Optical Forms of Tris-Acetylacetone Cobalt III
TLDR
A typical non-electrolytic complex salt without salt-forming groups is sought to demonstrate the general applicability of the principle that the activities of enantiomeric ions could be changed to a different extent by the addition of an electrolyte containing an optically active anion or cation.
