Medicinal chemistry depends on many other disciplines ranging from organic chemistry andpharmacology to computational chemistry. Typically medicinal chemists use the moststraightforward ways to prepare compounds. The validation of any design project comes from thebiological testing.Studies of the binding site of vinblastine by a single cross—linking experiment identified it asbeing between resi...

b1-xlaxfeo3 (x = 0.0, 0.025) crystallites were prepared by chemical solution route. xrd analysis confirmed the phase formation of the materials. thermal characterization was done by dsc-tga to confirm crystallization and thermal behavior for phase development. morphological studies by fesem showed the agglomerated nature of the ferrite and edx analysis confirmed the degree of doping. ftir studi...

Abstract The use of infrared laser sources for creation of localized temperature fields has opened new possibilities for basic research and drug discovery. A recently developed technology, Microscale Thermophoresis (MST), uses this temperature field to perform biomolecular interaction studies. Thermophoresis, the motion of molecules in temperature fields, is very sensitive to changes in size, c...

NQR studies o f a number of molecular complexes with p-chloronitrobenzene and o-chloronitrobenzene as acceptors and different hydrocarbons as donors were carried out. A linear relationship between the NQR shift and the ionization potentials o f the donors is obtained. Maksyutin’s idea o f a positive shift with respect to acceptors having a quadrupolar nucleus is shown to hold in those systems. ...

An ion source which utilizes a beam of monoenergetic electrons as the ionizing agent was designed and built for use in a 60° sector general utility mass spectrometer. The source was made to be used without a magnetic field to collimate the electron beam. The source is interchangeable with a surface ionization source that was already utilized in the mass spectrometer. Various operating character...

Arthropods in general, and the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster (Figure. 1A), in particular, have traditionally served as models in developmental biology for understanding morphology or for biomedical reasons providing a key to the development of studies on vertebrates, as an important model of genetic organism. All the fundamentals of classical genetics were built largely through studies on ...

Mechanisms of interaction of a three-dimensional polymer with solutes are of interest in the development and function of synthetic biomimetic polymers. We have investigated the effects of template/monomer interactions and template concentration on conversion and polymerization rates of a molecularly imprinted polymer. Copolymers of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and poly(ethylene glycol) di...
