abstract

we report herein the development of a highly sensitive colorimetric method for the detection of 4-hydroxy-2-mercapto-6-methylpyrimidine (mtu) which acts as an anti-thyroid drug utilizing citrate capped gold nanoparticles (au-nps). this thiol-containing molecule exhibits intriguing affinity with au-nps. the reactivity involves the displacement of the citrate shell by the thiolate shell followed by intermolecular electrostatic interactions or hydrogen-bonding between the thiolate shells. the interparticle interactions depend on ionic strength, ph and au-nps concentration of the solution. the interparticle interactions lead to a small change in the plasmon band around 521 nm and the formation of a new red shifted band. the calibration curve is derived from the ratio of the absorption intensity changes at 650 nm to the changes at 520 nm. it was linear in the concentration range of 5.0 × 10-7-2.75 × 10-6 m. the detection limit (3σ) for mtu was found to be 1.9 × 10-7 m.

Determination of mercury (II) by spectrophotometric method based on self assembly of gold nanoparticles

Due to the binding of the –COO- group with the mercury (II), gold nanoparticlesfunctionalized with glutathione can self-assemble to form a supermolecular network in the HAc-NaAc buffer solution. The aggregation of functionalized gold nanoparticles and mercury (II)caused the shift of maximum absorption peak of the UV-Vis spectrum from 520 nm to 609 nm.Based on this principle, a simple spectropho...

Histological investigations on the liver-disturbing action of 2-methyl-4-amino-5-hydroxy-methylpyrimidine.

Abderhalden (1) injected the pyrimidine and thiazole moieties of thiamine in mice and rats with the object of investigating the biosynthesis of thiamine and observed the induction of running fits. Its cause was further proved to be the pyrimidine moiety, i.e., 2-methyl-4-amino-5-hydroxymethylpyrimidine (OMP). Makino and Sasaki (2) reported the induction of running fits after in jecting this com...

Effect of 4-Hydroxy-2-Nonenal Modification on -Synuclein Aggregation

Several observations have implicated oxidative stress and aggregation of the presynaptic protein-synuclein in the pathogenesis of PD.-Synuclein has been shown to have affinity for unsaturated fatty acids and membranes enriched in PUFAs, which are especially sensitive to oxidation under conditions of oxidative stress. One of the most important products of lipid oxidation is 4-hydroxynonenal (H...
