The synthesis of 2,5-bis(4-amidinophenyl)thiophene derivatives providing submicromolar-range inhibition of the botulinum neurotoxin serotype A metalloprotease
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Paris, 2012)
Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs), composed of a family of seven serotypes (categorized A-G), are the deadliest of known biological toxins. The activity of the metalloprotease, light chain (LC) component of the toxins is ...
CdS particles modified TiO2 coatings formed by plasma electrolytic oxidation with enhanced photocatalytic activity
(Elsevier, 2018)
CdS particles modified anatase TiO2 photocatalysts were formed on titanium substrate by plasma electrolytic oxidation for 2 min in supporting electrolyte (10 g/L Na-3 center dot PO4 center dot 12H(2)O) with addition of CdS ...
Study of Simultaneous Radionuclide Sorption by Mixture Design Methodology
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2015)
The problem of simultaneous removal of Co2+, Sr2+, and Cs+ ions from aqueous solutions was addressed using oxide, phosphate, and aluminosilicate materials from economical and abundant sources. Competition between cations ...
Towards understanding intermolecular interactions in hydantoin derivatives: the case of cycloalkane-5-spirohydantoins tethered with a halogenated benzyl moiety
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2017)
A series of cycloalkane-5-spirohydantoins bearing a halogeno substituted benzyl group (X = Cl and Br) in position 3 has been synthesized and their structures (1-6) have been determined by a single crystal X-ray diffraction ...
Visible light absorption of surface-modified Al2O3 powders: A comparative DFT and experimental study
(Elsevier, 2019)
Surface modification of Al2O3 powders, prepared using reproducible sol-gel synthetic route with small colorless organic molecules, induces charge transfer complex formation and the appearance of absorption in the visible ...
Preparation, characterization and photocatalytic activity of lanthanum and vanadium co-doped mesoporous TiO2 for azo-dye degradation
(Elsevier, 2013)
Titanium dioxide photocatalysts co-doped with lanthanum and vanadium were prepared by a facile microwave-assisted hydrothermal method and characterized by XRD, SEM, N-2 physisorption at 77 K and DRS. The characterization ...
Nonlinear frequency response analysis of forced periodic operation of non-isothermal CSTR with simultaneous modulation of inlet concentration and inlet temperature
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015)
The nonlinear frequency response (NFR) method is applied for evaluation of possible improvement through simultaneous periodic modulation of two inputs of a non-isothermal continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) in which ...
Fast profiling of protease specificity reveals similar substrate specificities for cathepsins K, L and S
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2015)
Proteases are important effectors of numerous physiological and pathological processes. Reliable determination of a protease's specificity is crucial to understand protease function and to develop activity-based probes and ...
5-Aryl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acids as selective inhibitors of human carbonic anhydrases IX and XII
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015)
Inhibitory activity of a congeneric set of 23 phenyl-substituted 5-phenyl-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acids toward human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms I, II, IX and XII was evaluated by a stopped-flow CO2 hydrase ...
Study of heavy metals biosorption on native and alkali-treated apricot shells and its application in wastewater treatment
(Elsevier, 2018)
Locally available apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) shells classified as a waste product from fruit processing, were alkali activated in order to develop an efficient heavy metal ions sorbent for water purification. To examine ...
