OBJECTIVE This project was designed to evaluate the effects of melatonin and zinc on the glycemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with inadequate response to the oral hypoglycemic agent metformin. METHODS A placebo controlled, double-blind clinical trial was performed at the Specialized Center for Endocrinology and Diabetes, Al-Rusafa Directorate of Health, Baghdad, Iraq d...

Heterobimetallic complexes of Zn(II) and Sn(IV) with sarcosine have been synthesized at room temperature under stirring conditions by the reaction of sarcosine and zinc acetate in 2 : 1 molar ratio followed by the stepwise addition of CS2 and organotin(IV) halides, where R = Me, n-Bu, and Ph. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR and NMR ((1)H, (13)C) spectroscopy. IR da...

In the title salt, [NaZn(2)(CH(3)COO)(2)(ClO(4))(2)(C(16)H(36)N(4))(2)]ClO(4), the macrocyclic ligand binds to the Zn(2+) cations through their four amino N atoms; the Zn(2+) cations are also each covalently bonded to an acetate ion. For one zinc atom, the acetate group is monodentate, and the geometry is a distorted ZnN(4)O trigonal bipyramid; for the other, the acetate group is anisobidentate...

Abstract Cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin films were deposited using a two–electrode electrodeposition (ED) configuration from an aqueous acidic solution. The electrolyte solution contains 1 M of cadmium acetate dihydrate (Cd (CH 3 OO) 2 .2H O) as precursor and ml tellurium dioxide (TeO ) precursor. grown for different deposition times 60, 120, 180, 240, 300 min to investigate the effect period on...

determination of terazosin hydrochloride dihydrate (trz) in drug substance and tablets was studied by fluorimetric techniques. the fluorimetric methods are based on: (1) measurement of the native fluorescence of the drug in water at 750 nm after excitation at 330 nm. (2) sensitizing the native fluorescence by formation a binary complex of drug with aqueous uranyl acetate (0.1% w/v) at the same ...

The reaction of zinc acetate and 2-methyl-8-hydroxy-quinoline in methanol yielded the centrosymmetric dinuclear title compound, [Zn(2)(C(10)H(8)NO)(2)(CH(3)CO(2))(2)(CH(3)OH)(2)], which has the Zn atom within a distorted NO(4) trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry. Methanol-acetate O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the dinculear units into a linear supra-molecular chain extending parallel to [100].
