The presentation is far from purely morphological in that many physiologic findings (natural and experimental) are cited. Radio-active iodine obviously has contributed heavily to this type of material, although there is not much said about the biochemistry of iodine-containing compounds. In general, this work will be of great interest to biologists and workers in the preclinical sciences. As to...

Thyroid hormone producing thyroid carcinoma is an uncommon cause of thyrotoxicosis. A patient with extensive hepatic metastases from well-differentiated carcinoma is presented. Administration of amiodarone for atrial fibrillation led to the development of hyperthyroidism. Precipitation of thyrotoxicosis by iodine-containing compounds in patients with thyroid carcinoma is rare. The relatively hi...

A series of N,N-dialkyl-2-phenylindol-3-ylglyoxylamides bearing the halogens iodine and bromine were synthesised and their binding affinity for the peripheral benzodiazepine binding sites (PBBS) in rat kidney mitochondrial membranes was evaluated using [(3)H]PK11195. Central benzodiazepine receptor (CBR) affinities were also evaluated in rat cortices using [(3)H]flumazenil to determine their se...

Nuclear medicine would be greatly aided if compounds were available to promote the excretion of unwanted radioisotopes from biological systems. Such preparations would make possible greater use of long-lived radionuclides in medicine and would reduce some of the environmental hazards associated with nuclear energy. The biochemistry of radioisotope excretion is complicated because there are so m...

Aromatic substituents migrate in a novel oxidative cyclization mediated by iodine(III) reagents. 4-Arylbut-3-enoic acids are cyclized and rearranged to 4-arylfuran-2(5H)-ones by hypervalent iodine compounds in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. Other ring sizes are also accessible. The mechanism of the reaction is described in detail, and calculations highlight the cationi...

A study to determine the total content of phenolic compounds, flavonoids and mass fraction iodine in chocolate using non-traditional raw materials has been conducted. The object was products, containing stevioside, erythrol, germinated soy flour, enriched with iodine.
 Carrying out this set studies is important because it will developed chocolate. Based on obtained patterns, possible perce...

The interaction between povidone-iodine, phagocytic cells, and microorganisms was studied. Three preparations of povidone-iodine were investigated: commercially available povidone-iodine solution Betadine, pure high-molecular-weight povidone-iodine as used in Betadine, and a low-molecular-weight povidone-iodine. Low concentrations of povidone-iodine (approximately 0.005%) have considerable acti...

Iodine biofortification of vegetables can become an alternative (to iodized salt) method of introducing this element into human diet. Development of agronomic rules concerning its application requires detailed evaluation of iodine influence on plant physiological and biological processes including mineral nutrition and quality of yield. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of iodine...

Vitamins are essential compounds in food even though the content contained these foods is small, and this because vitamins have a vital role human body. Vitamin C or ascorbic acid secondary antioxidant compound that captures free radical compounds. easily found vegetables fruits. One of fruits contain vitamin guava. This study aims to determine analyze concentrations several guava fruit types w...
