Xylose is a promising feedstock for the fuel and chemical industry. We propose here an integrated process to recover purify xylose from acidic hydrolysate stream, e.g., coming pretreated lignocellulose. This consists of selectively extracting as diboronate ester back-extracting it into clean aqueous solution. report 85% extraction efficiency using toluene/phenyl boronic acid in single stage. sh...

This study is aimed to shed light on the electronic absorption and emission spectra of DBDMA (2-(1-(difluoroboraneyl)-1,2-dihydroquinolin-2-yl)-2-(1-methylquinoxalin-2-ylidene) acetonitrile) in different solvents. Both types were obtained theoretically produced experimentally The photostability dye was tested, its energy transfer behavior presence oxygen hydrated copper sulfate quenchers invest...

The exact role of the central acidic domain of Mdm2 in p53 degradation remains unclear. We therefore performed a systematic and comprehensive analysis of the acidic domain using a series of short deletions and found that only a minor part of the domain was indispensable for Mdm2-mediated p53 ubiquitylation. Moreover, we identified a short stretch of acidic amino acids required for p53 degradati...

background: organic solvents are known as a group of organic compounds, widely used in industry and to which many workers are exposed. neurotoxicity is one of the most important complications of the chronic exposure to the solvents and may causes neurobehavioral disorders in workers. we have studied the frequency of neurobehavioral disorders in workers exposed to organic solvents in one of the ...

background: workers exposed to organic solvents are at risk of developing chronic central nervous system disorders. the aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the neurobehavioral effects of occupational exposure to organic solvents among pharmaceutical laboratory workers. methods: the study groups consisted of 78 laboratory workers as the exposed group and 98 office workers as une...

Chestnut shell melanin can be used as a colorant and antioxidant, and fractionated into three fractions (Fr. 1, Fr. 2, and Fr. 3) with different physicochemical properties. Antioxidant activities of the fractions were comparatively evaluated for the first time. The fractions exhibited different antioxidative potential in different evaluation systems. Fr. 1, which is only soluble in alkaline wat...
