The effect of ractopamine hydrochloride (RH) and zilpaterol hydrochloride (ZH) on slice shear force (SSF) and sensory characteristics of beef from calf-fed Holstein steers was evaluated. All steers were implanted with a progesterone (100 mg) plus estradiol benzoate (10 mg) implant followed by a terminal trenbolone acetate (200 mg) plus estradiol (40 mg) implant. Steers were blocked by weight in...

Monometallic complexes of the tetrakis(pyrazolyl)borate ligand [ML(2){B(pz)(4)}] {M = Rh, Ir; L(2) = eta-cod, eta-nbd, (CO)(2), (CO)(PPh(3))} have two free pyrazolyl rings which can be coordinated to a second ML(2) unit to give the dimeric compounds [L(2)M{mu-B(pz)(4)}ML(2)](+), and to a metal halide to give heterobimetallic species [L(2)M{mu-B(pz)(4)}M'Cl(2)]. (1)H NMR spectroscopy shows that ...

By following the titer of passively acquired Rh antibodies in newborn infants, it is calculated that the half-life of the placenta-passing Rh antibody molecule is approximately 30 days. Evidence is offered that this estimate applies not only to placenta-passing Rh antibodies, but also to other placenta-passing antibodies, and not improbably to serum gamma globulin molecules in general. Studies ...

Using local density functional calculations, we studied the morphological changes of Mo(1 1 1) and W(1 1 1) upon the adsorption of an ultrathin ®lm of Rh. The unusual relaxations induced by Rh on Mo(1 1 1) and W(1 1 1) surfaces should be caused by competing several factors such as Smoluchowski smoothing e€ect, change of atomic interactions, and charge transfer between overlayer and substrate. I...

Reaction of a potential NCN-pincer ligand, viz. 1,3-di(phenylazo)benzene (L), with [Rh(PPh(3))(3)Cl] affords, via a C-H bond activation, an interesting dinuclear Rh(II) complex (1), and with RhCl(3)·3H(2)O affords a mononuclear Rh(III) complex (2) containing a catalytically useful Rh-OH(2) fragment.

Introduction Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy with very poor prognosis. Conventional chemotherapy only rarely prolongs the survival, therefore patients require novel treatment modalities. The discovery of specific receptors for hypothalamic hormones on cancer cells has led to the development of radiolabeled and cytotoxic hormone analogs. Materials and meth...

Download pose: In addition to their expression on pituitary cells, receptors for luteinizing hormone-releasing ne (LH-RH) are found on most prostate cancer cells. These tumoral LH-RH receptors mediate the cytotoxic effects of LH-RH analogs and are potential therapeutic targets. Although pituitary LH-RH ors are downregulated following prolonged exposure to LH-RH agonists, there is no evidence th...

Ambient ionization mass spectrometric imaging of all parts of the seedling of Dysoxylum binectariferum Hook. f (Meliaceae) was performed to reconstruct the molecular distribution of rohitukine (Rh) and related compounds. The species accumulates Rh, a prominent chromone alkaloid, in its seeds, fruits, and stem bark. Rh possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and immuno-modulatory properties. D...

A adsorção de íon sulfato em eletrodos de Rh(111), Rh(100) e Rh(110) foi estudada utilizandose a técnica de espectroscopia de FTIR por reflectância in situ. Foi observada somente uma banda vibracional localizada acima de 1200 cm-1 para as três superfícies com baixo índice de Miller e uma banda fraca em 960 cm-1 para o sulfato adsorvido em Rh(111). A banda forte acima de 1200 cm-1 é dependente d...
