the oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (ldl) may play an important role in atherogenesis. antioxidants that can prevent ldl oxidation may act as antiatherogens. our understanding of the mechanism of ldl oxidation and factors that determine its susceptibility to oxidation is still incomplete. copper is a candidate for oxidizing ldl in atherosclerotic lesions. the binding of copper...

the intake of antioxidants intake has been reported to be inversely associated with the incidence of coronary artery disease. to clarify the possible role of lipophilic antioxidants in prevention of atherosclerosis, we investigated the effects of lycopene on the susceptibility of low-density lipoprotein (ldl) to oxidative modification. in this study, “lycopene” was added to plasma and incubated...

a sodium dodecyl sulfate modified carbon paste electrode (sds/cpe) was developed in this work based on the surface modification method. the modified electrode was prepared by immersing sds/cpe in a nickel nitrate solution. this electrode showed a strong accumulation ability toward nickel ions. then modified electrode was conditioned by potential recycling in a potential range of 0.2–0.8 v (vs. ...

in this paper, labo3 perovskite type catalyst formulations were prepared by sol-gel auto combustion method using citric acid as the fuel. activity of catalysts was tested in catalytic oxidation of toluene as a model of volatile organic compounds. lacoo3 perovskite formulation showed the highest activity among labo3 (fe, mn and co) perovskite catalysts. so, lacoo3 perovskite based catalyst was s...

removal of thiosulfate (s2o32-, 200 mg/l) from simulated wastewater samples was investigated under varying co-pollutants and ph conditions employing the titanium dioxide (tio2) mediated photocatalysis. for thiosulfate only studies higher substrate removal was noted at lower ph with a specific trend of ph 4 > ph 7 > ph 10. furthermore, near complete thiosulfate removal was also achieved at ph 4....

in the present study, photocatalytic removal of p-nitrophenol has been carried out in the presence of zno by using a batch reactor with a uv-c lamp (15 w). the effects of applied zno concentration and uv light intensity have been studied. the increase of initial pollutant concentration decreases the removal rate, and the results indicate that the apparent reaction rate constant in the uv/zno pr...

hantzsch 1, 4-dihydropyridines (1,4-dhps) can be oxidized to the corresponding pyridine derivatives by thallium triacetate in high yields.

zno nanowires with a diameter of 70 nm and nanorods with a diameter in the range of 100-150 nm and two micrometer in length were grown on glass substrates by resistive evaporation method and applying a two step oxidation process at low temperatures, without using any catalyst, template or buffer layer. xrd pattern of these nanostructures indicated a good crystallinity property with wurtzite hex...

The oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) may play an important role in atherogenesis. Antioxidants that can prevent LDL oxidation may act as antiatherogens. Our understanding of the mechanism of LDL oxidation and factors that determine its susceptibility to oxidation is still incomplete. Copper is a candidate for oxidizing LDL in atherosclerotic lesions. The binding of copper...

The fact that oxidation, as one of the main routes of phase I metabolism of drugs, follows by conjugation reactions, and also formation of nitrenium ion as one of the clozapine oxidation products, directed us to investigate the oxidation of clozapine (CLZ) in the presence of nucleophile. The oxidation of clozapine (CLZ) has been studied on a glassy carbon electrode in the absence and presence o...
