Three substituted zinc (II) phthalocyanines (one anionic, one cationic and one hydrophobic) have been compared to two clinically used photosensitisers, 5,10,15,20-tetra (m-hydroxyphenyl) chlorin (mTHPC) and polyhaematoporphyrin (PHP), as potential agents for photodynamic therapy (PDT). Oxygen-consumption experiments, performed to follow the photo-oxidation of tryptophan, histidine and bovine se...

Polyphenols content and antioxidant activity are directly related to the quality of wine. Wine also contains sulfites, which are added during the winemaking process. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of sulfites on the assays commonly used to measure the antioxidant activity and polyphenols and flavonoids content of white wines. The effects of sulfites were explored both in the st...

New polyoxadiazole-based supported ionic liquid membranes were designed and elaborated for the first time to be used as a middle- high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell application. The proposed molecular design combined hydroxyl-functionalized sulfonated polyoxadiazole, hydrophilic polyvinylpyrrolidone specific protic liquid, thus allowing elaboration of with remarkable physic...

Objective . To optimize the composition of polymer coatings based on assessment duration antibacterial resistance in infected wounds laboratory animals. Materials and methods Woven vascular prostheses consisting fibrous-porous polypropylene one three types a polyvinyl-chitosan complex with addition biologically active substances were used study. All samples impregnated 1% vancomycin for 30 minu...

Before the metabolic role of the blood plasma expander, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) can be studied by the technic of ionography, some fundamental ionographic characteristics of the polymer, per se, must be determined. This study is concerned with the influence of such variable factors as time, potential gradient, temperature, the pH of the buffer and its ionic strength on the mobility of the mig...
