We reduce the graph isomorphism problem to 2-nilpotent p-groups isomorphism problem (and to finite 2-nilpotent Lie algebras the ring Z/pZ. Furthermore, we show that classifying problems in categories graphs, finite 2-nilpotent p-groups, and 2-nilpotent Lie algebras over Z/pZ are polynomially equivalent and wild.

A very fast-responsive fluorescent probe PZ-Py for imaging mitochondrial HClO/ClO(-), with a relatively long emission wavelength, was prepared. The limit of detection was evaluated to be 17.9 nM. Moreover, the probe PZ-Py was successfully applied in the imaging of endogenous HClO/ClO(-) in the mitochondria of RAW 264.7 cells and living nude mouse.

New silver(I) complexes have been synthesized from the reaction of AgNO(3), monodentate tertiary phosphanes PR(3) (PR(3) = P(C(6)H(5))(3), P(o-C(6)H(4)CH(3))(3), P(m-C(6)H(4)CH(3))(3), P(p-C(6)H(4)CH(3))(3), PCH(3)(C(6)H(5))(2)) and two novel electron withdrawing ligands: potassium dihydrobis(3-nitropyrazol-1-yl)borate and potassium dihydrobis(3-trifluoromethylpyrazol-1-yl)borate. These compoun...

The successful organic synthesis of a new dipyrazole/pyridine-dicarbonyl organic molecule, namely pyridine-2,6-diylbis(pyrazine-2-ylmethanone) [(pz)CO(py)CO(pz)], followed by its employment in Mn coordination chemistry has yielded the neutral cluster compound [Mn3Na2O(N3)3(L)3] (1), where L(2-) is the (pz)C(CH2COCH3)(O(-))(py)C(CH2COCH3)(O(-))(pz) dianion. The latter group was formed in situ, p...

The reaction of human, bovine, and pig properdin with excess zymosan exhibits an induction period followed by a rapidly accelerating formation of the properdin-zymosan (PZ) complex. Two methods for determining the quantity of PZ complex are given, one using human serum lacking properdin, the other using a fraction of pig serum containing complement components, C'1, C'3 and C'4.

BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE STUDY Protein Z (PZ) is a vitamin K-dependent factor that is synthesized mainly by the liver. It acts as an activator of serpin, the protein Z-dependent inhibitor (ZPI), which inhibits factor Xa. The potential role of alterations in protein Z and/or ZPI levels in the pathogenesis of thrombotic and/or hemorrhagic diseases has been previously investigated, but results ha...

New N4O2-donor acyclic chelators 2-[[2-[2-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethyl-[2-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylamino]ethyl]amino]ethylamino]methyl]phenol (H2L(pz*,NH)) and 2-[[2-[2-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylamino]ethyl-(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]ethylamino]methyl]phenol (H2L(py,NH)) were obtained upon introduction of pyridyl or pyrazolyl coordinating units at the central nitrogen atom of diethylenetriamine (di...

Although inlet bent pipes are usually adopted due to limited installation space, the influences of different bend on flow characteristics and performance centrifugal compressors still unclear. The numerical simulation a compressor is established validated by experimental results with case straight pipe. Then, internal 90-degree pipe (p90) Z-shaped (pz) simulated discussed. show that adoption tw...
