At antipyretic and analgesic doses, salicylate has no antiplatelet or anti-inflammatory effects, unlike typical inhibitors of the prostaglandin H synthases (PGHSs). We demonstrated that salicylate inhibits PGHS-1 and -2 with a potency inversely related to ambient hydroperoxide concentrations. Salicylate inhibition of PGHS-1 was prevented by 12-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HPETE). Increa...

the dye-sensitized solar cells (dssc) have been regarded as one of the most promising new generation solar cells. tremendous research efforts have been invested to improve the efficiency of solar energy conversion which is generally determined by the light harvesting efficiency, electron injection efficiency and undesirable electron lifetime. in this review, various characteristics of dye-sensi...

Enterobacter cloacae NAD(P)H:nitroreductase (NR; EC 1.6.99.7) catalyzes two-electron reduction of a series of quinoidal compounds according to a "ping-pong" scheme, with marked substrate inhibition by quinones. The steady-state catalytic constants (k(cat)) range from 0.1 to 1600s(-1), and bimolecular rate constants (k(cat)/K(m)) range from 10(3) to 10(8)M(-1)s(-1). Quinones, nitroaromatic compo...

the objective of the present study is the synthesis of mwcnt-tio2 hybrid nanostructures by solvothermal synthesis method with ticl4 as precursor. the heat transfer enhancement due to the use of mwcnt-tio2 nanofluid was investigated. as-prepared hybrid materials were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the results showed that mwcnts were uniformly dec...
