Well faceted CuO nanoparticles, were synthesized by thermal-assisted dissociation method at reflux temperature in a short period of time. A possible mechanism for synthesis of such highly pure and stable nanoparticles is tentatively proposed by FT-IR study. The large surface area and rich exposed active sites are expected to endow such nanoparticles with excellent performances in catalysis as d...

The catalytic performance of Ni-Al, Mg-Al, and Co-Ni LDHs as novel nanocatalysts was evaluated in the oxidation of toluene. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The XRD and FTIR approved the structure and functional groups of the LDH, respectively. Also, the presence of cations with dif...

oxidative stress has been implicated in the progression of hiv to aids, since hiv usually replicates in a highly oxidized condition and cd4+ t lymphocytes can be activated via a cascade of internal oxidative pathways, which enhances the formation of proteins and enzymes. thus, antioxidants should potentially be useful for the treatment and prevention of hiv infection as a new alternative strate...

abstract the graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode was fabricated and used to determine amlodipine besylate. in 0.1 m ph 7.3 phosphate buffer solutions, the redox peak currents of amlodipine besylate increased significantly at graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode compared with bare electrode and chitosan modified glassy carbon electrode, ...

the oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (ldl) may play an important role in atherogenesis. antioxidants that can prevent ldl oxidation may act as antiatherogens. our understanding of the mechanism of ldl oxidation and factors that determine its susceptibility to oxidation is still incomplete. copper is a candidate for oxidizing ldl in atherosclerotic lesions. the binding of copper...

conclusions the results of this study show that lh in different pharmaceutical preparations could be determined with good reliability. in addition, the results reveal that the equal numbers of electrons and protons are involved in the oxidation of lh and the irreversible oxidation of an analyte was performed via amine groups of lh molecule. background lidocaine hydrochloride (lh) is one of the ...
