The particle emissions from a commercial brake system utilizing copper-free pads have been characterized on dynamometer under two real-world driving cycles. These included novel cycle developed analysis of the database World Harmonized Test Procedure (WLTP-Brake) and short version Los Angeles City Traffic (3h-LACT) in framework European LowBraSys project. Disc temperature measurements using an ...

The regulation of phosphoinositide hydrolysis by the type 1alpha metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR1alpha) was investigated in stably transfected baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells. Incubation of the cells with L-glutamate, quisqualate, and 1-aminocyclopentane-1S, 3R-dicarboxylic acid resulted in a marked accumulation of [3H]inositol monophosphate (InsP1) and inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(...

to obtain drugs which are more selective at benzodiazepine (bzd) receptors, design and synthesis of functionally selective ligands for bzd receptors is the current strategy of our pharmaceutical chemistry department. the affinity of newly synthesized ligands is assessed by radioligand receptor binding assays. based on our previous studies, 2-phenyl-5-oxo-7-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolo[a,2,3]-pyrimid...

In this research, firstly, some derivatives of sulfur containing [1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one have been synthesized and then they were used for the synthesis novel 6′-amino-2,9′-dioxo-2′-phenyl-9′H-spiro[indoline-3,8′-pyrano[2,3-d][1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine]-7′-carbonitriles via a one-pot three-component condensation reaction 7-hydroxy-2-phenyl-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]p...

Bestatin, a dipeptide analog, is a potent aminopeptidase inhibitor of bacterial origin. We have previously shown that bestatin inhibits cytosolic exopeptidases in mammalian cells, and results in the accumulation of di- and tripeptide intermediates in cellular protein degradation. Our primary interest is the uptake of bestatin in liver and muscle, 10 min after its intravenous injection into mice...

Autoradiographs of tissue slices from livers perfused with 1 x 10(-9) M-1-O-[3H]octadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine ([ 3H]18:0-sn-3-AGEPC) indicate that binding of this agonist is localized in the portal venules in anterograde perfused livers, and in the central venules in retrograde perfused livers. The pattern of silver grains in anterograde perfused liver was not affected signific...

Oestrogen receptor protein (ER) was detected in 9 of 11 samples of malignant breast tissue and 8 of 9 samples of normal breast tissue. Levels of cytosolic ER (ERJ) in malignant breast were 21-1102 fmol mgsoluble protein (Kd1.8x 10-9-3.1 x 10-8moll-1) and those of nucleosolic ER (ERj), 13-526fmolmg-' soluble protein (Kd 2.1 x 10-9-1.4 x 10 8mol '1). In normal breast tissue ERC levels were 33-640...

Carbon steel (CS) corrosion prevention is a significant problem in the industry. The development of an effective protection strategy popular research area. In this work, three thiazole derivatives (3-(2-methoxyphenyl)−4-methylthiazol-2(3H)-thione (P1), 3-phenyl-4-methylthiazol-2(3H)-thione (P2) and 3-(2-methyl-phenyl)−4-methylthiazol-2(3H)-thione (P3)) were used 0.5 M H2SO4 solution for CS miti...

Synthesis of 2-[2-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)amino]phenylmethyl-3-[4-(2-substitutedphenyl-4-oxo-thiazolidinyl)aryl]-6-bromo quinazolin-4(3H)ones VIa-j have been achieved from the starting material 2-[(2,6-dichlorophenyl)amino] phenylacetic acid I to benzoxazine III, Further reaction with p-phenylindiamine and substituted aromatic aldehyde gave 2-[2-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)amino]phenyl methyl-3-(4-aminoary...
