Contrast media (CM) in cardiology is used in vessel visualisation, stenosis identification, localisation and identification of vessel ramifications and cardiovascular malformations. The identification of a CM that has the optimum visual properties and a safe profile was investigated in this study, along with other significant parameters. Quantitative assessment in choosing appropriate CM was in...

Abbreviations: AE: Adverse Event; AUC(0-t’): Area Under the Curve from Zero (Pre-Dose) to the Time of Last Common Measurable Time Point Within Subject; BLQ: Below the Limit of Quantitation; CI: Confidence Interval; Cmax: Maximum Plasma Concentration; COPD: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease; CV: Coefficient of Variation; DPI: Dry Powder Inhaler; FF: Fluticasone Furoate; FP: Fluticasone Propi...

In the present work, well ordered, mesoporous carbon nitride (MCN) sorbent with uniform mesoporous wall, high surface area and pore volume has been fabricated using the simple polymerization reaction between ethylene diamine and carbon tetrachloride in mesoporous silica media, and then modified by TiO2 nanoparticles (Ti-MCN). The structural order and textural properties of the nanoporous materi...

In the title complex, [Nd(C(10)H(13)N(2)O(8))(H(2)O)](n), each Nd(III) ion is coordinated by six O atoms and two N atoms from one N'-(carboxymethyl)ethylene-diamine--N,N,N'-triacetate (edta) ligand and one water mol-ecule, displaying a bicapped trigonal-prismatic geometry. The edta ligands link the neodymium metal centres, forming polymeric chains running along the a axis of the unit cell. Thes...

An operationally simple and concise synthesis of anilinoethanolamines, as NMDA NR2B receptor antagonist ifenprodil analogues, was developed via a copper-catalyzed amination of the corresponding bromoarene. Coupling was achieved with linear primary alkylamines, alpha,omega-diamines, hexanolamine and benzophenone imine, as well as with aqueous ammonia, in good yields using CuI and N,N-diethylsali...

In dentistry, root canal therapy is the internal cleaning of a complex channel network contained within the tooth. The aim is to disinfect the canal and remove any remaining bacteria to prevent further infection prior to root filling. Irrigant solutions play an important role in this procedure as they allow canal debridement. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCL) is an irrigant that is clinically recomme...

A total of 41,825 metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were computationally screened toward the design of amine-functionalized MOFs for CO2 separation. Both the optimal species and number of amine functional groups were examined for eight MOFs with good performance in terms of CO2 uptake and selectivity. It was revealed that more amine functional groups grafted on the MOFs do not lead to a better CO...

Progress is reported towards the development of a new route to obtain cadmium sulfide (CdS) thin films by using ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetic acid (EDTA) ligand on the chemical bath deposition (CBD) method. Different chemical baths are used to study changes in the structures of the CdS films for different EDTA concentrations. X-ray diffraction (XRD) is used to prove the structural characterizat...
