purpose: to evaluate the effect of fullerene on chemical properties of naphazoline drug in   water by density functional theory (dft) methods.   materials and methods: naphazoline belongs to the imidazoline class of sympathomimetics.   the present study on naphazoline drug and its fullerene connected form were carried out using   computerized calculations of gaussian program in b3lyp/6-31g leve...

Background: Organochlorinated compounds are major environmental concern due to their persistence, long-range transportability and bio-accumulation. Chlorinated paraffin (CP) mixtures, especially short-chain CPs (SCCPs), are found in environmental samples at very high levels. However, information about their levels is still insufficient, mainly in marine biota. Methods: This study aimed to optim...

the present work concerns on the investigation of the role of polyethylene glycols (pegs) as masking agent for amelioration of extraction-separation of la(iii), eu(iii) and er(iii) ions by the acidic extractant bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (dehpa). the studied solvent extraction system is based on the combination of chelating effect of dehpa in the organic phase on the one hand, and the bin...

In this work the effect of carrier gas and post-growth activation conditions on the electrical properties of Mg-doped p-GaN single layers grown in a vertical flow close-coupled showerhead MOCVD system is investigated. The results of Hall effect measurements show that although the optimal Mg precursor flow rate depends on the growth atmosphere and is smaller when N2 is used as a carrier gas, sim...

Spectrophotometric assays of pyruvate oxidation catalyzed by extracts of the Reiter strain of Treponema phagedenis indicated that viologen dyes, flavin nucleotides, and a ferric iron chelate, but not pyridine nucleotides, were utilized as electron acceptors. Benzyl viologen-linked activity partially sedimented during ultracentrifugation and appeared similar to clostridial pyruvate:ferredoxin ox...

Abstract Secondary and trace elements may be limiting soil microbial functioning, albeit demand content remain largely unknown methods for their in situ detection are limited. Thus, the objective of present study was to take first step towards method development assessment ionome, that is, elemental composition communities. Chloroform (CHCl 3 ) fumigation extraction used CHCl ‐labile secondary ...

This paper uses a method for shape reconstruction of a 2-D homogeneous object with arbitrary geometry and known electrical properties. In this method, the object is illuminated by a Gaussian pulse, modulated with sinusoidal carrier plane wave and the time domains’ footprint signal due to object presence is used for the shape reconstruction. A nonlinear feedback loop is used to minimize the diff...

Berberine was loaded in yeast cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiaeas a novel pharmaceutical carrier to improve the treatment ofmany diseases. The yeast-encapsulated active materialsshowedhigh stability and bioavailability due to the enhanced solubility and sustained releasing. In this study, different characteristics of prepared berberine loaded yeast cells (loading capacity, release kinetic order...
