Abstract:

In this research, dipeptide (his-β-alanine) and porphyrin derivatives were choosen for comparing chelating ability of toxic metals such as Al3+, Cu2+, Hg2+ and Pb2+ in vitro. The reason for choosing these two compounds is that both of them are naturally present in biological systems and comparison of chelating ability of these two compounds has not yet been done. Synthesis and comparison of kinetic study of dipeptide (his-β-alanine), meso-tetrakis(4-trimethylanilinium) porphyrin (TAPP) and Tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TPPS4) were carried out by our team. In addition, cytotoxicity assays of metals and chelators were also performed using methylthiazoletetrazolium (MTT) test. Furthermore we investigated the protective effect of chelators against cytotoxicity, induced by differenrt toxic metals such as Al3+, Cu2+, Hg2+ and Pb2+ on human lymphocytes. EC50 values on humanlymphocytes obtained after 12 h incubation for Al3+, Cu2+ and Hg2+ were 30, 51, 3 µM respectively and for Pb2+ no cytotoxicity was observed on human lymphocyte up to 1000 µM concentration. EC50 obtained for chelators dipeptide, TPPS4 and TAPP were 948, 472 and 175 µM respectively. Pretreatment of human lymphocyte with subtoxic concentations of chelators reduced toxicity of the metals against human blood lymphocytes.

assessment of deep word knowledge in elementary and advanced iranian efl learners: a comparison of selective and productive wat tasks

testing plays a vital role in any language teaching program. it allows teachers and stakeholders, including program administrators, parents, admissions officers and prospective employers to be assured that the learners are progressing according to an accepted standard (douglas, 2010). the problems currently facing language testers have both practical and theoretical implications but the first i...

transference of imagery: a comparative formalistic study of shakespeares hamlet and its two persian translations

هدف از این تحقیق بررسی انتقال صور خیال هملت در دو ترجمه ی فارسی آن از نظر فرمالیستی بود. برای بدست آوردن داده-های مورد نیاز، 130 نمونه استعاره، مجاز، ایهام، کنایه و پارادوکس در متن اصلی مشخص شده و سپس بر اساس مدل نیومارک (1998) برای ترجمه ی استعاره یا بطور کلی زبان مجاز با معادل های فارسی شان مقایسه گردیدند. این تحقیق بر آن بود تا روش های استفاده شده برای ترجمه هر کدام از انواع زبان مجاز ذکر شد...
