In a double-blind study the fiberoptic bronchoscope was contaminated with five pathogenic organisms, each at a concentration of 10(9) organisms per milliliter. The shaft and inner channel of the bronchoscope were cleansed with five antiseptic regimens. Each regimen included equal 120-ml aliquots of one, two, or three solutions, respectively. The five different regimens were as follows: (1) phys...

A purified alkaline thermo-tolerant bacterial lipase from Bacillus cereus MTCC 8372 was immobilized on a Poly (MAc-co-DMA-cl-MBAm) hydrogel. The hydrogel showed approximately 94% binding capacity for lipase. The immobilized lipase (2.36 IU) was used to achieve esterification ofmyristic acid and isopropanol in n-heptane at 65 degrees C under continuous shaking. The myristic acid and isopropanol ...

The data in this article shows the effect of isopropyl myristate (IPM) on a 2D Stratum Corneum lipid model. In the first part, the analytical characterization of the synthesized deuterated isopropyl myristate is given. Then a BAM image of the pure Stratum Corneum model used is shown and a dataset of surface-pressure - area isotherms considering various ratios of deuterated and non-deuterated IP...

PURPOSE. Effects of cis-unoprostone isopropyl, its primary metabolite M1, trans-unoprostone isopropyl, latanoprost free acid, and fluprostenol were studied on Ca2þ-activated Kþ (BK) channels, plasma membrane potential, [cAMP]i, [cGMP]i, and steady state [Ca]i, and protection against endothelin-1 (ET-1)– induced steady state [Ca]i increases in human cortical neuronal (HCN-1A), trabecular meshwor...

The title compound, C(19)H(31)O(2)P, features a distorted tetra-hedral P atom that bonds to the phenyl ring, isopropyl and 2-isopropyl-5-methyl-cyclo-hexyl groups, and is determined as having an R(p) configuration. A chair conformation is observed for the cyclo-hexyl ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into chains running along the a axis by weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hodrogen bonds.

The crystal structure of the title compound, C(27)H(45)N(3), has been determined as part of our investigation into the hydro-phobic modification of amino-glycoside anti-biotics. The isopropyl group showed disorder for the tertiary carbon (equal occupancies), with high thermal motion for the peripheral atoms of the isopropyl and azide groups also apparent in the structure. The axial disposition ...

Reaction of isopropyl[(2-pyridyl)alkyl]amines such as N-isopropyl-N-2-methylpyridine or N-isopropyl-N-2-ethylpyridine with aqueous solutions of NaAuCl(4) led to the formation of [LAuCl(2)][AuCl(4)] in low yields, where L = pyridyl amine bound to gold in a bidentate fashion. Reaction of 2-(3,5-diphenyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)pyridine with aqueous NaAuCl(4), however, proceeded with formal loss of HCl and...
