Factors influencing the decomposition of chlormerodrin solut...

A reproducible pattern of respiratory disease was produced in calves inoculated intranasally with a pathogenic strain of bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1). A latent infection was established which could be reactivated by means of corticosteroid administration. Groups of calves were given a single dos...

The synthesis is reported of the complexes [Rh- (CH3CO2)2L]2 where L = misonidazole, desmethylmisonidazole, 2-nitroimidazole-l-ethanol and 1-(2- hydroxy 3-methoxypropyl)-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole (Roll-3696), and of the rhodium(II) butyrate analogues with the last two nitroimidazole ligands Crys...

A series of N2,N6-bis(3-methoxypropyl)pyridine-2,6-diamine azo dyes, prepared by coupling 2,6-bis((3-methoxypropyl)amino)-4-methylnicotinonitrile and diazotized substituted anilines with distinguishable electron push-pull abilities, have been described in this paper. The new dyes undergoing doub...

We have developed a practical enantioselective synthesis of 1, a novel indane acetic acid derivative with two contiguous stereogenic centers. The key indene acetic acid framework was constructed via a robust, unprecedented Reformatsky process. One stereogenic center was set via a resolution, and...

IR spectroscopy in cryogenic argon matrix of methyl 4-chloro-5-phenyl-1,3-oxazole-2-carboxylate and methyl 4-chloro-5-phenylisoxazole-3-carboxylate was applied for the structural assignment of these isomeric heterocycles. It was demonstrated that methyl 2-benzoyl-2-halo-2H-azirine-3-carboxylates...

Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is an important cytokine that plays a critical role in the inflammatory response and host defense against extracellular pathogens. In the present study, six novel IL-17 family genes (MaIL-17) were identified by analyzing Asian swamp eel (Monopterus albus) genome. Sequence ...

A series of substituted (Z)-5-(N-benzylindol-3-ylmethylene)imidazolidine-2,4-dione (3) analogs structurally related to aplysinopsin, and that incorporate a variety of substituents in both the indole and N-benzyl moieties have been synthesized under microwave irradiation and conventional heating ...

Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) plays a vital role in the regulation of insulin sensitivity and dephosphorylation of the insulin receptor, so PTP1B inhibitors may be potential agents to treat type 2 diabetes. In this work, a series of novel imidazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives were design...

The degradation of imidazolium salt by advanced oxidation processes has been demonstrated in the literature, but do not report on the efficacy of pH and chloride. In the present work, a comparative study of the influence of pH (in the range of 1–12), and chloride (in the range of 0-0.1 mol L−1)...

New mechanism for demulsification of crude oil water emulsion was elucidated to apply poly(ionic liquids), PILs, as demulsifier. New PILs were prepared from quaternized ethoxylate octadecylamine acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonate (AMPS-EOA) followed by radical copolymerization with 2-hydroxyet...

Binary vapor-liquid equilibria (VLE) for water and each of 1-butyl-1-methypyrrolidinium chloride ([BMPy][Cl]) and 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([BMPy][OTf]), and 2-propanol with the same ionic liquids are experimentally measured and reported at 50, 75, 100 kPa. The VLE...

The interaction between human serum albumin (HSA) and synthesized imidazolium and pyridinium based ionic liquids (ILs), as good potential microbial growth inhibitors, was investigated by spectroscopic techniques combined with molecular docking analysis.
