The process of molecular recognition is the assembly of two or more molecules through weak interactions. Information in the process of molecular recognition can be transmitted to us via physical signals, which may find applications in sensing and switching. The conventional signals are mainly limited to light signal. Here, we describe the recognition of diols with Cu(1,10-phenlothroline)2SeO4 a...

We previously reported the chemical synthesis of oligonucleotides containing thymine glycol, a major form of oxidative DNA damage. In the preparation of the phosphoramidite building block, the predominant product of the osmium tetroxide oxidation of protected thymidine was (5R,6S)-thymidine glycol. To obtain the building block of the other isomer, (5S,6R)-thymidine glycol, in an amount sufficie...

background: toxic alcohol poisonings are responsible for high mortality and morbidity in russia. this study was aimed to evaluate the trends of harmful ethanol (etoh) drinking as well as methanol (meoh), isopropanol (ipa) and ethylene glycol (eg) poisonings in the middle urals region of russia. methods: in this retrospective study, the medical records of patients poisoned with meoh, ipa and eg ...

background : staphylococcus aureus strains exhibiting multiple antibiotic resistances are isolated from most communities and hospital infections. treatment of patients with these infections has been difficult. the aim of this study was to detect and extract, the egg yolk immunoglobulin y as a potential source of anti- s. aureus antibody. methods : specific igy was produced by immunizing hens wi...

We investigated the analytical acceptability of ethylene glycol-based control sera by preparing sets of aqueous and ethylene glycol-based specimens that had added uric acid, calcium, creatinine, glucose, urea, sodium, and potassium. Ethylene glycol caused a significant systematic proportional bias in procedures involving dialysis, but had no discernible effect on methods not involving dialysis....

Background: Ethylene glycol is a toxic alcohol which is used in brake fluid, antifreeze, coolants, preservatives and chemical solvents. Ethylene glycol poisoning usually results in depression of the central nervous system, renal insufficiency and cardiopulmonary compromise, while laboratory findings include metabolic acidosis, increased anion gap, increased osmolar gap and calcium oxalate cryst...

Traditionally water-ethylene glycol mixture based nanofluids are used in cold regions as a coolant in the car radiators. In the present study, the rheological properties of water-ethylene glycol based graphene oxide nanofluid are studied using Non-Equilibrium Molecular Dynamics (NEMD) method at different temperatures, volume concentrations, and shear rates. NEMD simulations are perfor...
