The structures of epoxyquinomicins A (1), B (2), C (3) and D (4) were determined by spectroscopic studies. Compound 1 was determined to be (5R,6S)-2-(3-chloro-2-hydroxybenzoylamino)-5-hydroxymethyl-5,6-epo xy- 2-cyclohexene-1,4-dione. Compound 2 was revealed to be the dechlorinated derivative of 1. Compounds 3 and 4 were determined to be the reduced derivative of 2 and 1, respectively.

Effective representation of DNA sequences is one of the important tasks in the study of genome sequences. In this paper, we propose a graphical representation of DNA sequences based on nucleotide ring structure. In the proposed representation, we convert DNA sequences into 16 dinucleotides on the surface of the hexagon so that it can preserve nucleotide's chemical property and positional inform...

One of the tenets of nanoscience is the fact that the physical and chemical properties of matter change with size, and as you reach the nanometre length scale new behaviours start to appear. This is largely the appeal of doing science at this scale. We can now study, manipulate and control nano-objects — even one at a time in many cases — to produce a desired effect or a property that cannot be...

silver nanoparticles (nps) have been the subjects of researchers because of their unique properties ( e.g., size and shape depending optical, antimicrobial, and electrical properties). a variety of preparation techniques have been reported for the synthesis of silver nps; notable examples include, laser ablation, gamma irradiation, electron irradiation, chemical reduction, photochemical methods...

background and objectives: kefiran (kef) is a water-soluble polysaccharide that can form transparent film however, it is brittle. therefore, in order to improve the mechanical properties of kefiran film, a mixture with other polymers can be offered. the expansion of mixed systems can propose kefiran and polyvinyl alcohol (pvoh) as a new composite film. materials and methods: solutions of 20 gra...
