Mesoporous photocatalysts of CeO2/SBA-15 are prepared by two methods of direct synthesis as solvent-usage and solvent-free methods. In solvent-usage method, CeO2/SBA-15 is synthesized in acidic media. While, in solvent-free method, CeO2/SBA-15, has been prepared through the novel path of directly grind cerium salt into the as-prepared samples of SBA-15 occluded ...

abstract: chemical composition of lavandula angustifolia was studied by solvent free microwave extraction (sfme) and hydrodistillation (hd) methods. 1, 8-cineole (42.7% and 37.9%), camphor (26.1% and 21.3%) and borneol (31.2% and 21.6%) were the major compounds that obtained by sfme and hydrodistillation, respectively. the antibacterial activity of extracted oils was investigated against gram-p...

a practical and green method for the synthesis of 5h-dibenzo[b,i]xanthene-tetraones and spiro[dibenzo[b,i]xanthene-13,3'-indoline]-pentaones by the condensation of 2-hydroxynaphthalene-1,4-dione with aldehydes or isatins, respectively, in the presence of a catalytic amount of cellulose sulfuric acid (csa) under solvent-free conditions at 100 °c is described. the significant features of this pro...

A facile and efficient method for the preparation of 1,1-diacetates of aldehydes is improved. The acidified kaolin with sulfuric acid (2 % w/w) catalyzed 1,1-diacetates formation from aldehydes in solvent-free conditions. Both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes gave high yields (85-95 %) of the corresponding 1, 1-diacetates. Advantages of this method are the use of inexpensive and selective catal...

PURPOSE Novel biomarkers would facilitate early and accurate diagnosis of breast cancer. The Thomsen-Freidenreich (TF) and Tn antigens are aberrantly glycosylated carbohydrate cancer-associated antigens found in approximately 80% of adenocarcinomas. Both TF and Tn are expressed on cell-surface glycoproteins and glycolipids. Nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) is concentrated in secreted proteins and li...

Preliminary evidence has associated testosterone and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) with breast cancer. Our objective was to determine whether a) testosterone levels in nipple aspirate fluid (NAF), serum, or breast tissue are associated with breast cancer; b) testosterone levels in serum are associated with levels in NAF; c) PSA in NAF, serum, or breast tissue is associated with breast cancer;...

A green and efficient one pot, three component protocol for synthesis of naphthopyranopyrimidines by cyclocondensation of β-naphthol, aldehyde, and 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil using L-proline as a beneficial catalyst with high catalytic activity under solvent-free conditions at 100 °C is described. In this study, several types of aromatic aldehyde, containing electron-withdrawing groups as well ...

A simple and efficient method for the synthesis of quinolines and polycyclic quinolines using Li+ modified nanoporous Na+-montmorillonite is described. This new nanocatalyst proceeds via Friedlander annulation under solvent-free conditions. It describes our observations about a trend of catalytic activity of Lithium cation in nanoporous Na+-montmorillonite. In this study, several types of 1,3-d...

Transmural potential difference (PD) was measured in vivo under continuous perfusion of the rat stomach. Lumina! NaF (5 mM) perfusion elicited a net temporal decrease of PD, whereas lower NaF concentrations (1 and 2 mM) had no effect. The fall of PD induced by 5 mM NaF was abolished at pH 8.4 and was enhanced (161%) at pH 3.2. Compared to NaF alone, the decrease of PD induced by the simultaneou...
