A new tris-(2-aminoethyl)amine (TREN) capped tripodal Schiff base ligand has been developed by mimicking structural features of a natural siderophore, Bacillibactin, by substituting the catechol units with salicylaldehyde and employing amino acid as spacer. Synthesis of the ligand N-[2-[bis[2-[[2-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylamino]acetyl] amino]ethyl]amino]ethyl]-2-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylamino]...

A liquid membrane containing diethylene glycol monobutyl ether (2) shows specificity for K ion in transport while diethylene glycol dibutyl ether (1) was selective for Na over K . As an extractant, ligand 2 exhibited pronounced extraction selectivity for K over Na in comparison with ligand 1

phosphoryl containing ligand tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (topo) in dichloromethane has been used as an extracting agent for tetravalent thorium and trivalent europium ions from their 1 m sodium nitrates. the equilibrium data reveal that both ions are extracted as the complexes at 1:3 metal/ligand ratio. the values of conditional extraction equilibrium constant (kex) show the superior extractive ...

hyper-igm syndromes are characterized by profound reduction of serum igg, iga, and ige levels with normal or increased concentrations of serum igm. cd40 ligand deficiency is x-linked form of the disease, which results in a lack of immunoglobulin class switching from igm to igg in b cells. in addition to the recurrent infections, a number of patients suffer from neutropenia. there are some evide...

background: human cornea expresses functional fas-ligand capable of killing fas+ activated lymphocytes. fas expression is partly regulated by -670 a/g polymorphism in the promoter region of fas gene. objective: the aim of the present study is to determine the association between fas-670a/g polymorphism and survival of corneal transplantation. methods: in 276 graft recipients who mainly underwen...
