In the present study, nine bis-azo dyes based on 5-arylidene-2,4-thiazolidinone were obtained in two steps, using Knoevenagel condensation and azo coupling reactions. The structure of the dyes was confirmed on the basis of spectral data. Analysis of spectroscopic data shows that there is equilibrium between the azo and hydrazone tautomers for all dyes in solutions. Investigation of antioxidant ...

p-Dimethylaminoazobenzene (DAB) is an azo-dye and known to cause liver tumour in rats. Azo-dye binding protein is a specific cytosolic protein involved in the translocation of azo-dye carcinogen metabolites from liver cytoplasm into the nucleus. Administration of vitamin A (40,000 and 50,000 IU), L-ascorbic acid (500 and 1000 mg) and vitamin E succinate (200-500 mg) reduced the amount of azo-dy...

We investigated the characteristics of carrier transport and crystallographic orientation distribution in 500-nm-thick Al-doped ZnO (AZO) polycrystalline films to achieve high-Hall-mobility AZO films. The AZO films were deposited on glass substrates at 200 °C by direct-current, radio-frequency, or radio-frequency-superimposed direct-current magnetron sputtering at various power ratios. We used ...

Flake-like Al-doped ZnO (AZO) nanostructures including dense AZO nanorods were obtained via a low-temperature (100°C) hydrothermal process. By doping and varying Al concentrations, the electrical conductivity (σ) and morphology of the AZO nanostructures can be readily controlled. The effect of σ and morphology of the AZO nanostructures on the performance of the inverted organic solar cells (IOS...

In this paper we sensitized three free-metal azo days Dye 1, Dye 2 and Dye 3 based on 1,8-naphthalimide with n-propyl as the electron donor group. We used sulfonic acid and hydroxyl substituents as the electron acceptor anchoring group in synthesized dyes. The proposed dyes were sensitized from acenaphthene as the starting material by standard reactions and characterized by different techniques...

The antioxidant activity of Annona squamosa (A. squamosa) leaf was carried out using methanol extract and fractionated namely n-hexane, ethyl acetate residue. performed the 1-diphenyl-2-Pycrilhydrazil (DPPH) method. test residue yielded IC50 6.87, 169.99, 31.55 44.75 ppm. fraction with ppm by column chromatography silica gel G60 as stationary phase n-hexane: mobile phase. results obtained 181 f...
