this study presents the influence of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (hpbcd) on the aqueous solubility of acyl esters of cyproterone. first, a number of esters of cyproterone were synthesized. then the phase solubility analysis of the compounds in the presence of hpbcd was investigated in phosphate buffer solution at a ph of 7.4. to gain a better understanding of the complexation mechanism, the sy...

ethoxylated fatty acids or polyoxyethylene esters of fatty acids possess surface active characteristic depending on ethoxylation degree (glycol type used).they have a wide range of applications and are known by formulated trade names.fatty acids used as starting materials are obtained by the hydrolysis of fats and oils and thus the final products are fully biodegradable.the objective of this in...

Reaction of dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates 1a-c andpyrrole derivatives 2a-e in the presence of triphenylphosphite (TPP) was investigated and the effect of the pyrrole substitution was established. Diastereoselectivity is observed with pyrroles, 2a,b, yieldingphosphonate ester derivatives 3a-f and 4,and their relative configuration is determined by 1H/13C and 31</...

Die Kombination aus elektrogenerierter Chemilumineszenz (ECL) und Aptamer-gesteuerter Indikatorfreisetzung (gAID) magnetischen mesoporösen Silica-Nanopartikeln, die in mit Poly(ethylenglycol) N-(3-Triethoxysilylpropyl)diethanolamin funktionalisiertes Glasfaserpapier eingebettet sind, ermöglichte Entwicklung eines Schnelltests, dem sich Penicillin direkt verdünnter Milch bis auf 50±9 ppt <5 min ...

Barium salts of dibenzylidene cystines 8a-c were obtained from the reaction of Lcystine with benzaldehyde or its derivatives in the presence of barium hydroxide. Their reduction with zinc and hydrochloric acid in methanol yielded the Narylmethylcysteines ?9a-c?. These can, in turn, be converted by esterification into the methyl esters ?10 a-c. ?Reaction of N, N'-carbonyl diimidazole (Im C...

Retinol and retinyl esters are measured in serum or plasma samples by gradient, normal-phase, adsorption "high-performance" liquid chromatography, with ultraviolet detection at 325 nm. The four major circulating retinyl esters in humans (esters of palmitate, stearate, oleate, and linoleate) are coeluted as a single peak. Retinyl acetate is included as an internal standard, to correct for variab...

Interferons (IFNs) induce the expression of a variety of cellular RNAs. Phorbol esters can inhibit IFN-induced expression of some of these RNAs, including ISG-54K. The actions of phorbol esters on IFN-activated ISG-54K transcription are cell specific and are reversed by inhibitors of protein synthesis. In those cell lines in which phorbol esters inhibit IFN-induced ISG-54K transcription, prolon...

The cuticular surface lipids of the red harvester ant, Pogonomyrmex barbatus, were found to contain minor amounts of novel wax esters, in addition to the major components, hydrocarbons. The wax esters ranged in carbon number from C19 to C31 and consisted of esters of both odd- and even-numbered alcohols and acids. Each wax ester with a given carbon number eluted at several different retention t...

Thin-layer systems for argentation chromatography of fatty-acid esters of carotenoids have been developed. As two-dimensional reversed-phase partition system on paraffine impregnated cellulose this method permits a clear discrimination between saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. By adsorption on silver nitrate containing silica gel-G separation of carotenoid esters according to the degree of...

The need to understand and control ester synthesis is driven by the fact that esters play a key role in the sensorial quality of fermented alcoholic beverages like beer, wine and sake. As esters are synthesized in yeast via several complex metabolic pathways, there is a need to gain a clear understanding of ester metabolism and its regulation. The individual genes involved, their functions and ...
