development of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles
a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...
Inhibition of Human Neutrophil Elastase by Pentacyclic Triterpenes
SCOPE Inhibiting human neutrophil elastase (HNE) is a promising strategy for treating inflammatory lung diseases, such as H1N1 and SARS virus infections. The use of sivelestat, the only clinically registered synthesized HNE inhibitor, is largely limited by its risk of organ toxicity because it irreversibly inhibits HNE. Therefore, potent reversible HNE inhibitors are promising alternatives to s...
متن کاملPhenolic Compounds and Pentacyclic Triterpenes
Decoctions, macerations and fumigations of the stem bark and wood of Terminalia brownii 20 Fresen. are used in traditional medicine for fungal infections and as pesticides on field crops and in 21 traditional granaries in Sudan. In addition, T. brownii is commonly used for protecting wooden 22 houses and furniture. Therefore, using agar disc diffusion and macrodilution methods, eight extracts 2...
متن کاملAnti-inflammatory actions of pentacyclic triterpenes.
Pentacyclic triterpenes (PTs) as aglycones of saponins have a wide distribution in plants, and many of them have been used as anti-inflammatory remedies in folk medicine. This survey critically reviews the effects of PTs on proinflammatory mediator signalling pathways and data from experimental animal models and clinical trials. Because the knowledge of their actions is far from being satisfact...
متن کاملInhibition of human leucocyte elastase by ursolic acid. Evidence for a binding site for pentacyclic triterpenes.
Several pentacyclic triterpenoid metabolites of plant origin are inhibitors of hydrolysis of both synthetic peptide substrates and elastin by human leucocyte elastase (HLE). Ursolic acid, the most potent of these compounds, has an inhibition constant of 4-6 microM for hydrolysis of peptide substrates in phosphate-buffered saline. With tripeptide and tetrapeptide substrates, the inhibition is pu...
