In this article, theoretical studies on the selective complexation of the halide ions (F¯, Cl¯ and Br¯) and ion pairs (Na+F¯, Na+Cl¯ and Na+Br¯) with the cyclic nano-hexapeptide (CP) composed of L-proline have been performed in the gas phase. In order to calculate the dispersion interaction energies of the CP and ions, DFT-D3 calculations at the M05-2X-D3/6-31G(d) level was employed. Based on t...

Background Cyclophosphamide (CP) is a chemotherapeuticdrug which causes deleterious effects on tissue of testicle and increases free radicals in the body. The aim of this study is to investigate protective effects of ethyl pyruvate (EP) on improvement of testicle inCP treated animals. MaterialsAndMethods In this study, 15 male mice(6-8 weeks) were divided into 3 groups. Control group receivedno...

In this study, degradation of p-chlorophenol (p-CP) was evaluated using persulfate (PS) activated zerovalent iron (ZVI) based ultraviolet (UV) in a bench scale photoreactor. The effect of operational parameters such as solution pH (3, 7, and 11), reaction time (0-60 minutes), ZVI dosage (0.15, 1.25, 0.5, 1, and 1.5 mM), PS concentration (0.5, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, and 4 mM), and initial p-CP concentr...

We construct a closed smooth 4-manifold which is homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic to CP#4C̄P 2 and describe its handlebody picture.

This paper introduces a comparative theoretical investigation of the conventional cathodic protection (CP) and the pulse cathodic protection (PCP) systems to show how both of them behave under different operating conditions. The effectiveness of the PCP system has been analyzed in the light of getting better protection-current distribution along the protected well casing at reduced anode curren...
