background: the incorporation of thallium-201 into 8-hydroxyquinoline was targeted for cell labeling due to interesting physical properties and wide availability of this nuclide as a single photon emission computed tomography (spect) radionuclide. materials and methods: thallium-201 (t1/2=3.04 d) in tl+ form was converted to tl3+ cation in presence of o3/6m hcl and di-isopropyl ether, controlle...

the zinc(ii) complex [zn2(dmdtc)2(μ-dmdtc)2] has been synthesized directly from thiram ligand, containing a disulfide bond {dmdtc = n,n-dimethyldithiocarbamate; thiram = n,n-tetramethylthiuram disulfide}, and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods. surprisingly thiram, undergoes a reductive disulfide bond scission upon reaction with zn2+ in methanolic media to give the [z...

an octahedral cobalt(iii) complex, trans-[(me2bpb)co(bzlan)2]clo4 (1), with h2me2bpb = n,n’-(4,5-dimethyl-1,2-phenylene)dipicolinamide and bzlan = benzylamine, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, ir, uv-vis, and 1h nmr spectroscopy. the structure of this complex has been determined by x-ray crystallography. the me2bpb2– is a di-anionic tetradentate ligand furnishing a ...

due to human beings’ aesthetic sense, they have always been engaged in embellishing their living environment throughout the history. given the different culture, customs, beliefs and even varied policy of each society, the applied arts or decorative styles have constantly been evolved. the qajar architecture was influenced by russian and central europe styles, and by combining them with the ira...

the structure and properties of niobapyrimidinium complex were examined by density functionaltheory method (mpw1pw91). the effect of solvent on the structural parameters, frontier orbitalenergies and hyperpolarizability (
tot) of this molecule has been explored. the thermodynamicproperties of the title compound at different temperatures have been calculated. also, the parasubstitutionseffect on...

one of the methods to enhance bio-accessibility of drugs like acridone and its oxime is toform inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrin. the formation of such complexes has beenconfirmed by changes in spectral characteristics and melting point data. the aqueous phasesolubility studies reveal 1:1 stoichiometry between the compound and, β-cyclodextrin. the studyof thermodynamic parameters like δg,...

the rheological properties of four different kuwaiti crude oils in the presence of polyacrylamide (paa) were investigated. paa was varied at three different concentrations of 25, 50, and 75 ppm to study the viscoelastic properties in the untreated samples. four different temperatures (25, 30, 35, and 40 °c) were used to evaluate different viscoelastic parameters of the treated and untreated kuw...

in the current study, synthesis and characterization of a new nano-structured zirconium(iv)-minoxidil complex (1), where minoxidil, (c9h15n5o; 6-(1-piperidinyl)-2,4-pyrimidinediamine 3-oxide), have been investigated in two different solvents. the compound 1 has been synthesized by sonochemical method in the presence of methanol and monoethylene glycol (meg) as solvents and characterized by scan...

a modified pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (pfge) protocol was developed and applied to clinical isolates of mycobacterium tuberculosis complex to reduce the cost of using lyticase. this protocol reduces the expense of pfge typing of mycobacterium tuberculosis complex as it removes the use of lyticase during the spheroplast formation from these bacteria.

major histocompatibility complex (mhc) class ii deficiency is a primary immunodeficiency disease characterized by abnormality of mhc class ii molecules surface expression on peripheral blood lymphocytes and monocytes. clinical manifestations include extreme susceptibility to viral, bacterial, and fungal infections but the immunodeficiency is not as severe as scid (severe combined immunodeficien...
