Studies on Triterpenoids. XII

Triterpenoids.

This review covers the isolation and structure determination of triterpenoids including squalene derivatives, protostanes, lanostanes, holostanes, cycloartanes, dammaranes, euphanes, tirucallanes, tetranortriterpenoids, quassinoids, lupanes, oleananes, friedelanes, ursanes, hopanes, isomalabaricanes and saponins. The literature from January 2005 to December 2006 is reviewed and 478 references a...

On Modified Log Burr XII Distribution

Pearson differential equation‎. ‎This distribution is also obtained from a compounding mixture of‎ ‎distributions‎. ‎Moments‎, ‎inequality measures‎, ‎uncertainty measures and reliability measures are theoretically established‎. ‎Characterizations of MLBXII distribution are also studied via different techniques‎. ‎Parameters of MLBXII dist...

Studies on erythropoiesis. XII. The effect of transfusion-induced polycythemia in the mother on the fetus.

Structural studies of capsular polysaccharide of type XII Diplococcus pneumoniae.

The capsular polysaccharide of Diplococctw pneumoniae Type XII contains residues of D-glucose and D-galactose in a molar ratio of 2:l. The methylated polysaccharide yielded upon hydrolysis 2,3,4,6-tetraand 3,4,6-tri-O-methyl-D-glucose and 2,3,4,6-tetra-0-methyl-D-galactose as the only neutral methyl sugars. Periodate oxidation of the polysaccharide resulted in destruction of all neutral sugars ...

X-ray studies on phospholipid bilayers. XII. Interactions of pentachlorophenol with myelin.

Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is a widely used pesticide, particularly for the preservation of wood. Given its high toxicity and resistance to degradation it has become a dangerous environmental pollulant. Due to its high lipophilicity, PCP is able to partition into the lipid bilayer of cell membranes disrupting several vital functions. The present research was concerned with the effects that the chr...
