In the present note, which is second part of a work concerning study set symmetric states, we introduce extension Klein transformation for general Fermi tensor product two $\bz^2$ graded $C^*$-algebras, under condition that grading one involved algebras inner. After extending construction to $C^*$-inductive limits, such realises canonical $*$-isomorphism between $\bz^2$-graded $C^*$-algebras ma...

To date no direct methods are available for the subunit quantification of pheomelanin, sulfur-containing melanin form whose structure increases melanoma risk. Here we apply Raman spectroscopy combined with chemometrics (MCR-ALS method) to quantify benzothiazine (BT) and benzothiazole (BZ), constituent monomers pheomelanin. The spectra synthetic pheomelanins only composed BT or BZ were markedly ...

Although several diseases are treated by toxic drugs, their side effects may hamper adherence to the therapy. The aim of this study is evaluate effect association ponderal benznidazole (BZ) with its ultra-high diluted (UHD) formula on clinical and parasitological parameters mice infected Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi). 24 non-isogenic Swiss were divided into groups: CI – animals 7% alcohol; BZp...

Cationic amino acid-based surfactants are known to interact with the lipid bilayer of microorganism resulting in cell death through a disruption membrane topology. To elucidate interaction cationic surfactant synthesized our lab, investigations involving Nα-benzoyl-arginine decyl amide (Bz-Arg-NHC10), and model membranes composed by 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) were done. ...

Computational Modeling of Neural Circuit-Like Coupled Belousov-Zhabotinsky Reactions A thesis presented to the Interdepartmental Program in Neuroscience. Graduate School of Arts and Science Brandeis University Waltham, Massachusetts By Alexander Mitchell We seek to adapt simplified circuit models of neural central pattern generators (CPGs) for use in a system of chemical oscillators using the B...

The Benzodiazepine Dependence Self-Report Questionnaire (Bendep-SRQ) measures the severity of benzodiazepine (BZ) dependence on four domains: awareness of problematic use, preoccupation with the availability of BZ, lack of compliance with the therapeutic regimen, and withdrawal. Although promising results of the Bendep-SRQ have been obtained in cross-sectional studies, no attention has been pai...

Reaction of [Ln(I)3(THF)4] (Ln = Ce, Pr) or [Ln(I)3(THF)3.5] (Ln = Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Er) with three equivalents of [KBz] (Bz = CH2C6H5) at 0 degrees C afforded the corresponding lanthanide tri-benzyl complexes [Ln(Bz)3(THF)3] [Ln = Ce (2), Pr (3), Nd (4), Sm (5), Gd (6), Dy (7), Er (8) La (11)] in 48-75% crystalline yields, with the exception of the redox active samarium complex, which was isolat...

The beautiful target and spiral patterns exhibited by the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction in thin films of solution are representative of spatiotemporal behavior in a two-dimensional, planar excitable medium. 14 We report here BZ chemical waves propagating on the two-dimensional surface of a sphere. Singleand double-rotor spiral waves develop on the surface of a single cation exchange bead, ...

Benzodiazepines (BZs) allosterically modulate γ-aminobutyric acid type-A receptors (GABAARs) to increase inhibitory synaptic strength. Diazepam binding inhibitor (DBI) protein is a BZ site ligand expressed endogenously in the brain, but functional evidence for BZ-mimicking positive modulatory actions has been elusive. We demonstrate an endogenous potentiation of GABAergic synaptic transmission ...

We measure cross-diffusion coefficients in a five-component system, an aerosol OT (AOT) water-in-oil microemulsion loaded with two constituents of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction (H(2) O/AOT/BZ1/BZ2/octane). The species BZ1 is either NaBr, an inhibitor of the BZ reaction, or ferroin, a catalyst for the reaction. As species BZ2, we choose Br(2) , an intermediate in the reaction. The cross...
