pr81 is a monoclonal antibody that binds with high affinity to muc1 that over expressed on breast tumors. pr81 is considered a suitable targeting molecule that was radiolabeled using cu-64 for positron imaging studies. the monoclonal antibody was conjugated with dota moiety and after purification was evaluated for radiochemical purity, immunoreactivity, cell toxicity and structure integrity as ...

Compounds containing triazene ring structure are cytotoxic agents and clinically used as antitumor alkylating agents. In this study, a series of triazene derivatives holding alkyl and aryl moieties were synthesized and proved to be potent cytotoxic agents in-vitro particularly against eight cancer cell lines (PC3, HT29, Hela, HL60, Jurkat, K562, MCF7, HepG2) and a non-cancerous cell line (HUVEC...

Cisplatin is a common chemotherapeutic agent that used for treatment of many solid cancers. Rapid identification of chemotherapy resistance is very important and may lead to effective treatment plan. Spectroscopy techniques, such as infrared spectroscopy, which are sensitive to biochemical composition of samples, have shown potentials to discriminate tissues. Developing in Fourier transform inf...

Introduction: As the ability to repair cartilage tissue in body is limited, finding a suitable method for cartilage regeneration has gained the attention of many scholars. For this purpose, scaffold structure and morphology, along with cell culture on it, can be a novel method to treat cartilage injuries, osteoarthritis. Methods: In this study, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is selected as the scaf...

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is perhaps the most attractive material for bone repair, replacement and regeneration, due to its chemical composition and crystallographic structure which are similar to those of natural bone mineral. However, replacement of various elements and compounds in HA, could improve biological properties of this material. The aim of this study was preparation, characterization and...

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are categorized as some of inexpensive thin-film solar cells. The basis and foundation of these cells is a semiconductor that consists of an electrolyte and a light-sensitive anode. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a semiconductor that plays the role of anode and is the main constituent of these cells. In this paper, we have addressed the functionality and performan...

the copper(ii) complex [cu(pic)2]·2h2o was synthesized with 2-picolinic acid (hpic) and copper acetate as reactants by room temperature solid-solid reaction. the composition and structure of the complex was characterized by elemental analyses, single crystal x-ray diffraction, x-ray powder diffraction, ft-ir spectroscopy and thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry. the crystal struct...
