It is clear that ischemia inhibits successful defibrillation by altering regional electro-physiology. However, the exact mechanisms are unclear. This study investigated whether regional gap junction inhibition increases biphasic shock defibrillation thresholds (DFT). Sixteen swine were instrumented with a mid-left anterior descending (LAD) perfusion catheter for regional infusion of 0.5 mM/h he...

Diphenylamine (DPA) is a common contaminant at munitions-contaminated sites as well as at aniline manufacturing sites. Little is known about the biodegradation of the compound, and bacteria able to use DPA as the growth substrate have not been reported. Burkholderia sp. strain JS667 and Ralstonia sp. strain JS668 were isolated by selective enrichment from DPA-contaminated sediment. The isolates...

In the crystal of the title compound, C(13)H(12)ClNO(2)S, the N-H bond is anti to the meta-methyl group in the aniline ring. The C-SO(2)-NH-C torsion angle is -57.6 (2)°. The sulfonyl and aniline benzene rings are tilted relative to each other by 84.7 (1)°. The crystal structure features inversion-related dimers linked by pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Four new hetero- and homo-leptic iridium(III) bisterpyridine complexes have been prepared which incorporate aniline (tpy-φ-NH(2)), benzoic acid (tpy-φ-COOH), and benzyl alcohol (tpy-φ-CH(2)OH) substituents at the 4' positions of the tpy ligands (tpy = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine, φ = phenylene). The electrochemical behaviour and ground and excited state spectroscopic properties of the complexes are...

Three of the nine isomeric N-(nitrobenzylidene)iodoanilines, C13H9IN2O2, have been found, when crystallized from acetone, to yield polymorphs which differ from those obtained upon crystallization from ethanol. In the second polymorph of 2-iodo-N-(2-nitrobenzylidene)aniline, the molecules are disordered across inversion centres in space group C2/c, but there are no direction-specific interaction...
