Bacteriorhodopsin (BR) is a transmembrane protein which able to transport protons through cell membrane and thus converting solar energy to electrical energy. Up to now different strategies have been used to immobilize BR. In the present study the BR has been immobilized on polycarbonate surface with two different methods. The functional groups of polycarbonate were modified in two ways (sulfur...

Brassinosteroid (BR) and gibberellin (GA) are two predominant hormones regulating plant cell elongation. A defect in either of these leads to reduced plant growth and dwarfism. However, their relationship remains unknown in rice (Oryza sativa). Here, we demonstrated that BR regulates cell elongation by modulating GA metabolism in rice. Under physiological conditions, BR promotes GA accumulation...

The title compound, C(15)H(12)Br(2), comprises a norbornane unit having a dibromo-naphthalene ring fused on one side. Both Br atoms are twisted slightly out of the plane of the naphthalene ring system with a Br-C-C-Br torsion angle of 5.3 (5)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by weak inter-molecular C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, forming an infinite C(9) chain along [110].

Baroreflex (BR) and cerebral autoregulation (CA) are two important mechanisms regulating blood pressure and flow. However, the functional relationship between BR and CA in humans is unknown. Since BR impairment is an adverse prognostic indicator for both cardiac and cerebrovascular diseases it would be of clinical interest to better understand the relationship between BR and CA. Motivated by th...

The title compound PBPEA, C(10)H(7)Br(5)O(2), has its ethyl acetate portion nearly orthogonal to the benzene ring, with a C-C-C-C torsion angle of 88.3 (5)°. The packing involves an inter-molecular contact with a Br⋯Br distance of 3.491 (1) Å, having C-Br⋯Br angles of 173.4 (2) and 106.0 (2)°. The crystal studied was an inversion twin.

Breast reconstruction (BR) surgery is not common for the treatment of breast cancer in low- and middle-income countries, including Iran. We evaluated the quality of life (QoL) in Iranian breast cancer patients who underwent BR at the Cancer Institute of Iran. We compared patients who had BR with breast cancer patients who had a radical mastectomy as the control group, matched for age, and time ...

The aggregation of ionic liquid-based double-tailed surfactant, 1,3-dioctylimidazolium bromide ([Doim]Br) and its interaction with pluronic copolymer F127 were systematically investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), surface tension, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). It was found that the [Doim]Br aggregates are composed with the alkyl chains em...

Photodissociation of gaseous bromocyclopropane via its A-band continuum has been studied at excitation wavelengths ranging from 230 nm to 267 nm. Velocity-map images of ground-state bromine atoms (Br), spin-orbit excited bromine atoms (Br(∗)), and C3H5 hydrocarbon radicals reveal the kinetic energies of these various photofragments. Both Br and Br(∗) atoms are predominantly generated via repuls...
