Simultaneous spectrophotometric analysis of a multi-component dosage form of olmesartan, amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide used for the treatment of hypertension has been carried out using various chemometric methods. Multivariate calibration methods include classical least squares (CLS) executed by net analyte processing (NAP-CLS), orthogonal signal correction (OSC-CLS) and direct orthogonal ...

Transmissible colistin resistance mediated by the mcr gene has been reported worldwide, but clinical isolates of mcr-negative colistin-resistant Escherichia coli are rarely reported. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanism of colistin resistance among mcr-positive and mcr-negative E. coli clinical isolates by performing a molecular epidemiological surveillance. For the first time ev...

Abstract Ammonia-mediated selective catalytic reduction (NH 3 -SCR) using Cu-exchanged chabazite zeolites as catalysts is one of the leading technologies for NO x removal from exhaust gases, with Cu II /Cu I redox cycles being basis reaction. The amount ions reduced by NO/NH can be quantified consumption during temperature-programmed experiments (NO-TPR). In this article, we show capabilities i...

In this paper we present discretization and decomposition methods for a multi-component transport model of a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process. CVD processes are used to manufacture deposition layers or bulk materials. In our transport model we simulate the deposition of thin layers. The microscopic model is based on the heavy particles, which are derived by approximately solving a linear...

The mcr-1 gene mediating mobile colistin resistance in Escherichia coli was first reported China 2016 followed by reports among different species worldwide, especially E. and Klebsiella . However, data on its transmission Salmonella are still lacking. This study analyzed the antimicrobial (AMR) profiles presence 755 foodborne from 26 provinces of mainland, 2016. Genomic features two mcr-1- carr...

The rapid spreading of polymyxin E (colistin) resistance among bacterial strains through the horizontally transmissible mcr-1 and mcr-2 plasmids has become a serious concern. The emergence of these genes in Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), a group of human pathogenic bacteria was even more worrisome, urging us to investigate the prevalence of mcr genes among STEC isolates. A total...

Results The MCR sheets manufactured with a shore hardness of 15’ Shore ‘A’, has helped prevent high pressure points and thus avoid plantar ulcers in anaesthetic feet. Natural Rubber along with several other chemicals is used in optimum quantities to manufacture MCR. The unique manufacturing process gives MCR the ability to spring back to original shape when pressure is released while walking. T...

A novel mcr variant, named mcr-1.2, encoding a Gln3-to-Leu functional variant of MCR-1, was detected in a KPC-3-producing ST512 Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate collected in Italy from a surveillance rectal swab from a leukemic child. The mcr-1.2 gene was carried on a transferable IncX4 plasmid whose structure was very similar to that of mcr-1-bearing plasmids previously found in Escherichia coli ...

A simple and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 2-amino-3-cyanopyridines from aldehydes, ketones, malononitrile, and ammonium acetate via one-pot reaction is reported. Zinc zirconium phosphate (ZPZn) nanoparticles were used as a convenient and efficient catalyst for this multicomponent reaction (MCR) under solvent-free conditions, and fair to excellent yields were achieved. The catalyst w...
