the conditions under which, multilinear forms (the symmetric case and the non symmetric case),can be written as a product of linear forms, are considered. also we generalize a result due to s.kurepa for 2n-functionals in a group g.

this paper explores the possible origins of some names in 1001 nights. the names of the major characters of the night stories, and their borrowed reflexes in arabic, have been traced back to their ancient persian roots. examples from classical works are brought to argue that shahrāzād, shahriyār, and dīnāzād are not only the correct forms but more suitable to the deep structure of the frame-sto...

The aim of this study was to determine and compare in situ biohydrogenation (BH) fatty acids in three forms of soybeans and linseed (raw, extruded and roasted). Nylon bags (5×10 cm) containing 4 g of raw, extruded or roasted soybeans or raw, extruded or roasted linseed were incubated in the rumen of fistulated ewes for 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours. Results for linoleic acid (C18:2) showed tha...

Cryptophycins are cytotoxic natural products that exhibit considerable activities even against multi-drug-resistant tumor cell lines. As fluorinated pharmaceuticals have become more and more important during the past decades, fluorine-functionalized cryptophycins were synthesized and evaluated in cell-based cytotoxicity assays. The unit A trifluoromethyl-modified cryptophycin proved to be highl...

Ethosomal systems are novel lipid vesicular carriers containing a relatively high percentage of ethanol. These nanocarriers are especially designed for the efficient delivery of therapeutic agents with different physicochemical properties into deep skin layers and across the skin. Ethosomes have undergone extensive research since they were invented in 1996; new compounds were added to their ini...

Nanoemulsions have attracted great attention in research, dosage form design and pharmacotherapy. This is as a result of a number of attributes peculiar to nanoemulsions such as optical clarity, ease of preparation, thermodynamic stability and increased surface area. Nanoemulsions also known as submicron emulsions serve as vehicles for the delivery of active pharmaceutical ingredients as well a...

The PDF-4/Organics database is an ongoing annually updated collaboration between the International Centre for Diffraction Data (ICDD) and the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC). This database combines data taken from both powder diffraction experiments and data collected from single crystal crystallographic determinations that can be calculated into a reference powder pattern. The da...
