Of a range of glycosaminoglycans, heparin and heparan sulphate were the most effective inhibitors in vitro of CaCO3 (calcite) crystallization as assayed by conductimetric measurements. The possible role of such glycosaminoglycans in modulating calcium-salt crystallizations in vivo is discussed.

The purpose of these studies was to develop a conductimetric method for the rapid detection of Campylobacter jejuni. Numerous basal medium components were analyzed to develop a growth-enhancing broth medium for detection of freeze-injured Campylobacter cells using a conductimetric system. The final medium was composed of a modified Campy-Line agar from which the agar and triphenyltetrazolium ch...

Some ruthenium (II) polypyridyl complexes with a bis-chalcone (obtained by the condensation of 3-methyl-thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde and 4-acetyl pyridine) have been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically (IR, NMR, UV/Vis), conductimetric, elemental analysis and FAB mass data. Their luminescent, redox and Li(+) binding properties have been studied. The anti-HIV and antitumour activities ...

In this study, a cation-exchange resin (CEX) of the K(+)-form, i.e., an enhancer resin, is used as a postcolumn conductimetric enhancer in the ion-exclusion chromatography of aliphatic carboxylic acids. The enhancer resin is filled in the switching valve of an ion chromatograph; this valve is usually used as a suppressor valve in ion-exchange chromatography. An aliphatic carboxylic acid (e.g., ...

Some ruthenium(III) complexes with aryl-azo 2,4-pentanedione as co-ligands (L(1)H - L(3)H(2)) have been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically IR, (1)H NMR, UV/Vis, ESR, conductimetric) along with elemental analysis and FAB-mass data. Their luminescent and redox properties have been studied. The antibacterial, anti-HIV and antitmnour activities have also been reported.

Ternary Ni(II) complexes of hydrazine and eight heterocyclic sulfonamides possessing carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitory properties, were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopic, magnetic, thermogravimetric, and conductimetric measurements. The complexes behave as strong inhibitors for two isozymes (I and II) of carbonic anhydrase.

Complexes of the diuretic benzothiadiazine derivative chlorothiazide (6-chloro-7-sulfamoyl- 1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide) with V(IV); Fe(II); Co(II); Ni(II); Cu(II), Ag(I) and U(VI) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopic, thermogravimetric, magnetic and conductimetric measurements. The complexes behave as effective inhibitors for two isozymes (I and II) of ca...

Co(II); Zn(II) and Cu(II) complexes of two new sulfonamide carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitors, derivatives of thienothiopyran-2-sulfonamide, were prepared and characterized by analytic, spectroscopic, magnetic and conductimetric measurements. The new complexes are more potent CA inhibitors than the parent sulfonamides, with IC(50) values around 0.1 nM, against isozyme CA II.
