Ingestion of hypoglycin A (HGA) in maple seeds or alkaloids produced by symbiotic fungi in pasture grasses is thought to be associated with various syndromes in grazing animals. This article describes analytical methods for monitoring long-term exposure to HGA, its metabolite MCPA-carnitine, as ...

IntroductionErgot derivatives are drugs with vasoconstrictor effects that are used to abort migraine attacks. This study aims to determine how ergotamine derivatives are prescribed by physicians in Colombia, find variables associated with inappropriate prescribing, and review potential interacti...

Ergotamine has been used in clinical practice for the acute treatment of migraine for over 90 years. So far, it is known that ergotamine interacts with diverse receptors (including α1/2-adrenoceptors, 5-HT1, 5-HT2 and D2-like receptors) and that produces increases in mean blood pressure which a...

Sumatriptan, dihydroergotamine and methysergide inhibit 1% formalin-induced nociception by activation of peripheral 5-HT1B/1D receptors. This study set out to investigate the pharmacological profile of the antinociception produced by intrathecal and intraplantar administration of ergotamine (a 5...

Ergotamine, being a representative of naturally occurring ergoline alkaloids, derived from d-lysergic acid, and nicergoline, a d-lumilysergic acid derivative belonging to semi-synthetic ergot-derived alkaloids, display diversified affinity for adrenergic, serotoninergic, and dopamine receptors. ...

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of handling alone versus handling under anaesthesia with 2-phenoxyethanol or etomidate on haematological parameters in carp.

Sonochemical degradation at 600 kHz of 2-phenoxyethanol (PhE), an endocrine disrupting compound, was performed in the presence of several organic additives, namely: 2-propanol, Triton X-100 and sucrose, of different volatilities to obtain detailed information on the reaction zone and the oxidati...

The structural stability of 2-phenyl- and 2-phenoxyethanols were investigated at the DFT-B3LYP/6-311G**, MP2 and MP4(SDQ) levels of theory. From the calculations at the three levels of theory 2-phenylethanol and 2-phenoxyethanol were predicted to exist predominantly in non-planar gauche conforma...

A novel family of RuII-arene compounds with the general formula of [RuII(η6-(2-phenoxyethanol))(L)Cl]+ (L: 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) (3), 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine (4) and 4,4′-diyldimethanol-2,2′-bipyridine (5)) was synthesized and characterized by standard spectroscopic and analytical me...

A toxicologic and dermatologic review of 2-phenoxyethanol when used as a fragrance ingredient is presented. 2-Phenoxyethanol is a member of the fragrance structural group Aryl Alkyl Alcohols and is a primary alcohol. The AAAs are a structurally diverse class of fragrance ingredients that include...

Previous studies demonstrated long-term stimulation of some commercial personal care products (PCPs) on freshwater luminescent bacteria Vibrio qinghaiensis sp.-Q67 (Q67). However, whether a certain component can affect mixture's hormetic effect is still unknown. In this paper, two of ingred...

In this work, we reported the new experimental data of densities, speeds of sound, and refractive indices for four binary mixtures: {2-phenoxyethanol (2PhEE) + 1-propanol or 2-propanol or 1-butanol or 2-butanol) over the entire composition range and at temperatures of (293.15, 303.15, 313.15 and...

2-Phenoxyethanol (PhE) has been shown to induce hepatotoxicity, renal toxicity, and hemolysis in subchronic and chronic studies in multiple species. It is one of the endocrine disrupting compounds, which are listed as priority emerging water contaminates. In this work, the removal of PhE at vari...

The lipid dioctadecylamine (DODA) has been shown to self-organize in plate-like structures in aqueous solution. While in a previous model, we investigated by simulations its mesoscopic collective behaviour, here, we considered atomic partial charge distribution as determined by ab initio quantum...

We used the Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) technique to construct a well-defined and structure-controllable photochromic material—a highly ordered multilayer film composed of dioctadecylamine and 12-molybdophosphoric acid (PMo12). We identified well-ordered lamellar structures using X-ray diffraction,...

The lithium/sulfur (Li/S) battery is a promising electrochemical system that has a high theoretical capacity of 1675 mAh g−1. However, the system suffers from several drawbacks: poor active material conductivity, active material dissolution, and use of the highly reactive lithium metal electrode...

RÉSUMÉCe rapport traite des résultats d'une étude expérimentale sur l'équilibre liquide vapeur de solutions de R-22 dans du phthalate de butyle et dans de l'éther méthylique de tétraéthylène glycol; ces résultats sont obtenus en utilisant un instrument employé initial...

A novel branch-type diamide-embedded octadecyl stationary phase was prepared by facile amidation. The preparation of this new phase involves the synthesis of new bifunctional silane ligand and surface modification of spherical silica via anchoring of silane coupling agent. The obtained diamide-e...

A simple modification method was developed for the functionalization of amino terminated carbon nanotubes (CNT-NH2) by using isocyanates as modifiers via the nucleophilic addition reaction. Two types of functionalized magnetic carbon nanotubes (MCNT) were prepared through deposition of magnetic ...

This paper describes the fabrication of water-dispersible nanodiamond (ND) clusters with blue fluorescence for cellular bioimaging. Poly(ethylene glycol) carboxyl methyl acid (mPEG-COOH) and alkyl isocyanates with different chain lengths were conjugated onto the surface of the ND clusters for wa...
