tetanus is a disease caused by tetanus toxin, a potent inhibitor for the release of inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system that causes spastic paralysis. fragment c (52 kd) of this toxin is responsible for binding to the neuronal membrane. for this reason, and also its non toxigenic and immunogenic nature, this fragment might be ideal for new vaccine development. presently, w...

Aim: Identification of wild pig and domestic pig is essential to prevent illegal poaching of wild pig and to implement Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972. PCR-RFLP was used to differentiate Wild pig (Sus scrofa cristatus) from Domestic pig (Sus scrofa domestica) meat. Materials and Methods: DNA was isolated from meat samples of both the sub species and a fragment of Cytochrome b gene was amplified...

Abstract An asymmetric approach toward the synthesis of marine natural product aspergillide‐C has been developed. The convergent uses two Noyori transfer hydrogenations to enantioselectively prepare key fragments, a C ‐1 ‐7 pyranone fragment and ‐8 ‐14 β ‐keto‐sulfone fragment. absolute stereochemistry was established by reduction ‐furylketoester form furyl alcohol. Achmatowicz rearrangement us...
