Identification of Chiral-Specific Carbon Nanotube Binding Peptides Using a Modified Biopanning Method

Separation of ibuprofen drugs enantiomers by using chiral carbon nanotube with molecular dynamics simulation

Background: The separation of drug enantiomers in the pharmaceutical industry is of great importance since most organic compounds are chiral. The main purpose of this study was to calculate the binding energy of ibuprofen isomers interacting with the CNT, according to various adsorption configurations. Moreover, we have evaluated the performance of (16.4) chiral carbon nanotube for separation o...

Molecular Identification of Pre-Existing Immunityin Human against H9N2 Influenza Viruses Using HLA-A*0201 Binding Peptides

Background and Aims: The contribution genetic and antigenic diversity of H9N2 influenza viruses in evading from immune responses, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) epitopes in hemagglutinin (HA) protein restricted by HLA binding peptides was identified. Materials and Methods: Phylogenetic analyses were carried out for all of full length HA and deduced amino acid sequences of H9N2 viruses available ...

Electrochemical Chiral Recognition of Naproxen Using L-Cysteine/Reduced Graphene Oxide Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode

The electrochemical response of S- and R-naproxen enantiomers was investigated on L-cysteine/reduced graphene oxide modified glassy carbon electrode (L-Cys/RGO/GCE). The production of the reduced graphene oxide and L-cysteine on the surface of the glassy carbon electrode was done by using electrochemical processes. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were us...

Synthesis and Characterization of SiO2-Carbon Nanotube Hybrides Using a Sol-Gel Method

This work is focused on synthesis of SiO2- CNT hybrides via sol-gel method. Homogeneous distribution of carbon nanotubes within silicon matrix was obtained by mixing the functionalized carbon nanotube (CNTCOOH) with active silicic acid followed by titration to the solution of sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) under the average temperature condition of 80?C. Different ratios of multi-walled carbon nanot...
