As a white pigment, titanium oxide is used for cosmetic application. This oxide is well known to have the photo catalytic activity. Therefore a certain degree of sebum is decomposed by the ultraviolet radiation in sunlight. In this work, titanium phosphates were prepared with additives (urea, sodium lactate, and glycerin) as a novel white pigment. Their chemical composition, powder properties, ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Methylene blue photo-inactivated plasma (MBPIP) has been reported to be less effective than fresh-frozen plasma (FFP) in the treatment of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, which suggests a reduced content of the von Willebrand factor metalloprotease ADAMTS-13 in MBPIP. MATERIALS AND METHODS ADAMTS-13 activity and von Willebrand factor antigen (vWF:Ag) levels were ...

Two different strategies, namely a dialdehyde-based cross-linking and photo-affinity labeling, have been developed to generate small molecule activity-based probes (ABPs) for the Abelson (Abl) tyrosine kinase, of which probe 13, derived from the photo-affinity approach, showed specific labeling of Abl kinase present in a crude mammalian proteome.

in this paper, calcium stannate nanoparticles were synthesized by a fast and simple co-precipitation procedure. for casno3 preparation ammonia was used as precipitation agent. the effect of various surfactants such as cationic, anionic and neutral on the morphology of the products was investigated. by changing in ca(sal)2 as a new precursor different morphologies were obtained. ligand as a capp...

To understand the molecular mechanisms of development it is essential to be able to turn genes on and off at will and in a spatially restricted fashion. Morpholino oligonucleotides (MOs) are very common tools used in several model organisms with which it is possible to block gene expression. Recently developed photo-activated MOs allow control over the onset of MO activity. However, deactivatio...
