in this paper, absorption spectra of both solution and films of cyano azobenzene polymer are investigated. the analysis of overlapped absorption spectra of polymer, related to trans and cis isomers, shows that the population of cis isomers is higher than trans isomers. it means that, cyano azobenzene molecules have a folded structure in polymer, in thermal equilibrium. presence of cyano molecul...

Catalytic osmylation of cis and trans 2-cyclohexene-cyclohexanol (1a) and (1b) are carried out in the presence of N-methyl morpholine-N-oxide. Under the same conditions, only the cis isomer reacted, leading to triol (3). The steric hindrance of the equatorial OH group probably prevents the trans isomer from entering into such reaction. Triol (3) was also obtained from the reduction of the d...

trans-fatty acids (tfa) are known as a risk factor for coronary artery diseases. trans-11 vaccenic acid [va; 18:1(n-9)], known as the major trans fatty acid in milk fat, is a positional and geometric isomer of oleic acid and a precursor of conjugated linoleic acid (cla) in human . this study was carried out in order to investigate the effect of cis and trans vaccenic acids on expression of intr...

microstructural investigation of low molecular weight 1,4-polybutadiene (1,4-pbd) was studied by 1h and 13c nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (nmr). the isomer contents of 1,4-cis, 1,4-trans and 1,2- vinyl in polybutadiene microstructure were determined. the number average molecular weight for low molecular weight polybutadiene was measured by nmr techniques and comparison was made with g...

abstract introduction : conjugated linoleic acid (cla) has been shown to positively influence on calcium and bone metabolism in experimental animals and cell culture, but there are limited human data available. material and methods : this double-blind, placebo-controlled trial study was done on 76 healthy post-menopausal women (aged 55.1) which randomly assigned to receive daily four cla capsul...

One of the easiest ways to start improving quality in a hospital is through clinical audit. Clinical audit is a quality improvement process that seeks to improve patient care and outcomes. It does this through a systematic process of review or evaluation against clearly defined criteria, followed by the implementation of change. Clinical audit is something that doctors, nurses, optometrists and...

Background: Naturally extracted trans-(−)-kusunokinin from P. nigrum showed anticancer activities via binding and inhibition of CSF1R. However, the synthetic racemic mixtures trans-(−)- trans-(+)-kusunokinin (trans-(±)-kusunokinin) exhibited different effects on breast cancer cell lines. It was hypothesized that trans-(±)-kusunokinin bind to additional molecules, including AKR1B1. Previously, w...

The steam-distilled essential oil from Artemisia persica growing wild in Iran was analyzed by GC/MS. In all 50 compounds were identified; Davanone (60.56%), Cis Chrysanthenyl acetate (8.65%), Limonene (5.68%), ? Pinene (3.74%), Davanone ether isomer + (3.6%) and ? Thujene (3.6%) were the main components of the oil respectively.

2,4-dithiouracil (DTU) forms in the crystals the H-bonded monohydrates of a 1:1:1 ratio with 18-crown-6 (18C6) 1, cis,syn,cis-isomer of dicyclohexano-18-crown-6 (DCH6A) 2, and benzo-18-crown-6 (B18C6) 3, while the anhydrous adduct with cis,anti,cis-isomer of dicyclohexano-18-crown-6 (DCH6B) 4 is of a 2:1 ratio. In 1-3 the components reproducibly alternate in the chains, while in 4 the chains ar...
