effects of 28 days lead acetate (ioc, 500, 1000 ppm) treatment on hypertension ami relationship between blood lead levels and hypertension in male. spraguc-dawley rats were studied. results of this study showed tlxat lead acetate treatment did run decrease, body wcight or water consumption, except for lead acetate (1000 ppm) and sodium acetate (500 ppm) which increased fluid consumption when co...

The first synthesis of enantiopure glucose octyl ether polyamido-saccharides (GOE-PAS) with a defined molecular weight and narrow dispersity is reported using a controlled anionic ring-opening polymerization of a glucose-derived β-lactam sugar monomer possessing octyl ether chains. This new polymer structure is characterized by NMR, infrared (IR), optical rotation, gel permeation chromatography...

There are two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(20)H(36)S. Crystals are non-merohedrally twinned by twofold rotation about [001]. The bulky octyl groups of each mol-ecule are on the same side of the thio-phene plane and are approximately parallel. S-C distances are in the range 1.729 (4)-1.745 (3) Å, and the C-S-C angles are 92.98 (18) and 93.08 (17)°. The C...

Stingless bees of the species Trigona spinipes (Fabricius 1793) use their saliva to lay scent trails communicating the location of profitable food sources. Extracts of the cephalic labial glands of the salivary system (not the mandibular glands, however) contain a large amount (approx. 74%) of octyl octanoate. This ester is also found on the scent-marked substrates at the feeding site. We demon...

Ionic Liquids are low melting salts (up to 100° C) and represent a new class of solvents with unusual physico-chemical properties. In the present work ionic liquids have been used as reaction media for the synthesis of phenylacetylphenylglycine and of phenylacetylphenylalanine. 3 ionic liquids: 1-Octyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexa fluorophosphate and 1...

The reaction system for octyl-β-glucoside synthesis catalysed by the almond-β-glucosidase has been characterised. The monophasic octanol saturated with different amounts of water served as a reaction medium. Both the glucose and the activated substrate p-nitrophenyl-β-glucoside were examined as glycon donors. The reverse hydrolysis and the transglycosylation were both used as reaction models fo...

PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical efficacy and histopathological tolerance of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate versus conventional suture materials for eyelid wound closure in rabbits. METHODS We performed an experimental study on 16 eyes of eight New Zealand albino rabbits. Eyelid incisions of 15 mm were done 4mm from the upper eyelid margin in both eyes. The eyes of the rabbits were divided into two gr...
