An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of copper chelates in the form of methionine, chitosan and yeast on the performance of laying hens. Four hundred ISA Brown layers, 84 wks old, were assigned to 4 treatments: control, 100 ppm Cu in methionine chelate (Met-Cu), 100 ppm Cu as chitosan chelate (Chitosan-Cu) and 100 ppm Cu as yeast chelate (Yeast-Cu). ...

Black-bone silky fowl iron(II)-oligopeptide chelate was synthesized from iron(II) solution and the black-bone silky fowl oligopeptide, which was extracted from the muscle protein of black-bone silky fowl (Gallus gallus domesticus Brisson). Orthogonal array analysis was used to determine the optimal conditions for the iron(II)-oligopeptide chelate preparation. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectr...

Binary and ternary complexes of copper(II) with l-glutamic acid (Glu) and diamines 1,3-diaminopropane and 1,4-diaminobutane, putrescine (tn, Put), as well as adducts formed in the metal-free systems, have been investigated in aqueous solutions. The types of complexes formed and their overall stability constants were established on the basis of computer analysis of potentiometric results. The re...

A new proline analogue with the camphor-based 1,3-diamine unit is presented. This readily available from chiral pool providing a organocatalyst one free primary amine group next to secondary of unit. The diamine fragment had significant effect on catalytic activity organocatalyst.

With the use of a newly developed and convenient enzymatic method, tissue, urine and blood polyamine (diamine, spermidine and spermine) levels were evaluated as a tumor marker of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in 50 cases with the disease. Furthermore, blood and urine polyamines were periodically determined and evaluated as a follow-up marker. The pretreatment three polyamine levels in tissue, bloo...

1. The induction of ornithine decarboxylase activity in mouse 3T3 fibroblasts or an SV-40 transformed 3T3 cell line by serum was prevented by addition of the naturally occurring polyamines putrescine (butane-1,4-diamine) and spermidine. Much higher concentrations of these amines were required to fully suppress ornithine decarboxylase activity in the transformed SV-3T3 cells than in the 3T3 fibr...

New Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes of the type [M(bzoS)2(diamine)] {where M = or } from treatment one mole diamine ligands {diamine , phenanthroline (Phen), bipyridine (Bipy), ethylene (en), N,N′-dimethyl (dmen)} with [M(bzoS)2] complexes. The prepared were characterization by elemental analysis (CHN), molar conductivity, infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance proton (1H NMR). bzoS- lig...

A dithienyl unit in a N,C-chelate monoboryl compound has been found to completely stabilize a N,C-chelate boryl chromophore toward photoisomerization. N,C-chelate diboryl compounds that contain a dithienyl unit display a similar high stability toward photoisomerization. This greatly enhanced photostability is attributed to the π → π* transition and luminescence involving the dithienyl uni...

1. The purification of monoamine oxidase and diamine oxidase from normal human term placental tissue is described. 2. The properties of these enzymes are reported and compared with the properties of unpurified human pregnancy plasma. 3. This comparison shows that the amine oxidase of pregnancy plasma has properties corresponding to purified placental diamine oxidase, suggesting a placental orig...
