چکیده

The respiratory-chain inhibitor 2-n-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide catalyses transmembrane proton transport driven by a pH gradient in isolated rat liver mitochondria. This effect explains the apparent blockade of net proton translocation by this compound in mitochondria respiring with ferrocyanide as described by Papa, Lorusso, Guerrieri, Boffoli, Izzo & Capuano [(1977) in Bioenergetics of Membranes (Packer, Papageorgiu & Trebst, eds.), pp. 377-388, Elsevier/North-Holland, Amsterdam] and by Lorusso, Capuano, Boffoli, Stefanelli & Papa [(1979) Biochem. J. 182, 133-147].

Inhibition of dihydrocozymase-oxidase activity of heart-muscle preparations and of certain cell-free bacterial preparations by 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide.

a preliminary communication (Jackson & Lightbown, 1956) we have reported the inhibitory effect of heptyl N-oxide on the dihydrocozymaseoxidase activities of heart-muscle succinic oxidase preparations and of certain cell-free preparations of Staphylococcus aureus, Eacherichia coli, Proteus vulgariw and Bacillus pumilu&. The present paper includes a more detailed account of this work, together wi...

Studies on lipoxygenase inhibitors. II. KF8940 (2-n-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide), a potent and selective inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase, produced by Pseudomonas methanica.

Pseudomonas methanica KY4634 was found to produce 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor designated KF8940, MY12-62a and MY12-62c. The inhibitors were purified by solvent extraction, silica gel column chromatography, reversed-phase low pressure liquid chromatography and crystallization. The chemical structures of KF8940, MY12-62a and MY12-62c were determined to be 2-n-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide, 2-n-h...

Effect of nano Zinc Oxide on gas permeation through mixed matrix poly (Amide-6-b-Ethylene Oxide)-based membranes

Poly (amide-6-b-ethylene oxide)/Zinc Oxide (PEBA/ZnO) mixed matrix membranes were fabricated using ethanol/water as solvent by solvent casting method. The concentration of ZnO in membrane was set to 0.1 wt.% and the synthesized membranes were characterized by AFM and FTIR. Effects of ZnO nanoparticle on CO2, CH4 and N2 permeabilities, and CO2/N2<...
