This work describes the synthesis of a series of quaternary ammonium salts and the assessment of their in vitro antileishmanial activity and cytotoxicity. A preliminary discussion on a structure-activity relationship of the compounds is also included. Three series of quaternary ammonium salts were prepared: (i) halomethylated quaternary ammonium salts (series I); (ii) non-halogenated quaternary...

The transient receptor potential type V5 (TRPV5) channel is a six-transmembrane domain ion channel that is highly selective to Ca(2+). To study the topology of the selectivity filter using the substituted cysteine accessibility method (SCAM), cysteine mutants at positions 541-547 were studied as heterotetramers using dimeric constructs that couple the control channel in tandem with a cysteine-b...

Foam drainage gas production is a technology for low-pressure well in domestic and abroad industries. In Qinghai Oilfield’s Sebei Gasfield, sand existence often occurs during production. order to reveal the impacts of formation sands on production, lab test was conducted make study foam performances different agents case existence. A laboratory employed under varies scenes existence, recovery. ...

In this study, the kinetics of gas hydrate formation in the presence of tetra-n-butyl ammonium fluoride (TBAF) and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide surface active ingredient (CTAB) with zinc nano oxide (ZnO) are investigated and the most important kinetic parameters of hydrate formation such as their induction time and storage capacity were measured. The kinetic experiments were carried out in ...

Abstract TiO 2 preparation has been carried out with the addition of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) surfactant. The sol-gel method is used in , where TiCl 4 as a precursor. resulting was characterized using XRD, FTIR, XRF and SEM. XRD results show crystal size 17.75 nm rutile phase. FTIR broad absorption band between 800 400 cm ?1 by Ti–O vibrations lattice. showed that content 80.80%....

Magnetic nanoparticles of cobalt ferrite (CoFe204) have been synthesized using water-in-oil microemulsions consisting of water, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (surfactant), n-butanol (cosurfactant), and n-octane (oil). Precursor hydroxides were precipitated in the aqueous cores of water-in-oil microemulsions and these were then separated and calcined to give the magnetic oxide. X-ray diffract...

Redox behavior of midazolam was studied at a glassy carbon electrode in various buffer systems, supporting electrolytes and pH using differential pulse, square-wave and cyclic voltammetry. Based on its reduction behavior, a direct differential pulse voltammetric method has been developed and validated for the determination of midazolam in parenteral dosage. Three well-defined peaks were observe...

Nitrogen and metal doped nanocarbons derived from polyaniline (PANI) have been widely explored as electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in fuel cells. In this work, we report surfactant-template synthesis of PANI nanostructures and the ORR electrocatalysts derived from them. By using cationic surfactant such as the cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) as the template and t...

The interaction of histone H2B and dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (DTAB) was studies via equilibrium dialysis method at two different temperatures, at pH 6.4 in phosphate buffer. The binding data were used to obtain the Gibbs free energy of interaction, which is interpreted in terms of a theoretical model based on the Wyman binding potential. The data were then used to obtain...
