introduction : albumin, one of the most important plasma proteins, has a difficult process of synthesis and production. we compared two different methods for albumin purification: carboxymethyl cellulose (cm cellulose) resin exchange and diethylaminoethyl cellulose (deae cellulose) resin exchange in order to determine which resin could be more beneficial. materials and methods : two ion exchang...

Although nickel-based polyanionic compounds are expected to exhibit a high operating voltage for batteries based on the Ni2+/3+ redox couple activity, some rare experimental studies on the electrochemical performance of these materials are reported, resulting from the poor kinetics of the bulk materials in both Li and Na nonaqueous systems. Herein, the electrochemical activity of the Ni2+/3+ re...

Cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) have been developed as vehicles for payload delivery into cells in culture and in animals. However several biologic features limit their usefulness in living animals. Activatable cell penetrating peptides (ACPPs) are polycationic CPPs whose adsorption and cellular uptake are minimized by a covalently attached polyanionic inhibitory domain. Cleavage of the linker...

The Ce(IV) atom in the title salt, {(H(3)NCH(2)CH(2)CH(2)NH(3))(2)[Ce(SO(4))(4)(H(2)O)]·2H(2)O}(n), exists in a monocapped square-anti-prismatic coordination geometry. The water-coordinated metal atom is bonded to four sulfate ions; one of them is monodentate and two function in a chelating mode. The fourth is also chelating but it uses one of the other two O atoms to bind to an adjacent metal ...

there are many reports on the application of different hydrocolloids in the production of leavened breads; most of which show positive effects on bread quality. however, there is little information to prove such effect on flat breads. the main aim of this study was to improve the quality of barbari dough and bread (iranian flat bread) in terms of texture, taste and general acceptability of fres...

Protamine and polyarginine had bacteriolytic effects indicating their primary sites of action as being wall components and showing bacterial diversity genetically determined. Shake-incubation was required in producing cell-lysis. Studies on Bacillus subtilis revealed a high polycation multiplicity per cell in lytic event displaying multihit lysing kinetics; bacteriolysis was inhibited by trypsi...

Li-ion batteries have empowered consumer electronics and are now seen as the best choice to propel forward the development of eco-friendly (hybrid) electric vehicles. To enhance the energy density, an intensive search has been made for new polyanionic compounds that have a higher potential for the Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺ redox couple. Herein we push this potential to 3.90 V in a new polyanionic material that...

The room temperature structure of [C(NH2)3]3Sb2Cl9 ■ 0.9 H 20 (GNCA) was solved. It crystal­ lizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group with a = 15.275, b = 8.794, c = 17.904 (in Ä), ß = 96.40°, V = 2390 Ä3, Z = 4. Refinement of the atomic parameters by a least squares methods gave R = 0.042, wR = 0.039 for 1958 reflections with F>4ct(F). The structure consists of polyanionic (Sb2Cl|_)n layers bu...
