Tellurium (Te) nanostructures have been successfully synthesized via a simple hydrothermal methodfrom the reaction of a TeCl4 aqueous solution with thioglycolic acid (TGA) as a reductant. TGA can be easily oxidized to the corresponding disulfide [SCH2CO2H]2, which in turn can reduce TeCl4 to Te. The obtained Te was characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS, and DRS. The effect of reducing agent on morphol...

A rapid and efficient method for the synthesis of bis-thiazolidinones has been achieved by pseudo five-component reaction of aldehydes, ethylenediamine and thioglycolic acid in the presence of nano-NiZr4(PO4)6 as catalyst under microwave irradiation. Nano-NiZr4(PO4)6 has been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), v...

Abstract The interaction of eosin B dye from aqueous solution with MIL-100(Fe) and functionalized metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) is reported in this study. was prepared thioglycolic acid (TH) ethylenediammine (ED) separately by incorporating the thiol (–SH) amine (–NH 2 ) group functionalizing agents into open metal sites to obtain acidic (TH-MIL-100) basic (ED-MIL-100) forms MOF respectively....

glucose, as the major energy source in cellular metabolism, plays an important role in the natural growth of cells. herein, a simple, rapid and low-cost method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/thioglycolic acid (tga) quantum dots (qds) on a thin layer chromatography (tlc) plate has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzym...

Effective and easy-to-use methods for detecting Clostridium difficile spore contamination would be useful for identifying environmental reservoirs and monitoring the effectiveness of room disinfection. Culture-based detection methods are sensitive for detecting C. difficile, but their utility is limited due to the requirement of anaerobic culture conditions and microbiological expertise. We dev...

Previous studies (1) of glutamic acid metabolism suggested an investigation of the role of this amino acid and its thio esters (2, 3) in amino acid incorporation. The studies by Zamecnik et al. (4, 5) on amino acid incorporation into freshly prepared rat liver microsomes in the presence of the soluble cell fraction and an ATPl-regenerating system appeared to provide a suitable test system for o...

In the present work, a one pot, rapid and room temperature photochemical Synthesis of transition metal (TM; Cu, Mn, Cr)-doped ZnSe/ZnS core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) was reported. FT-IR spectrum confirmed the capping of ZnSe by thioglycolic acid. XRD and TEM analysis demonstrated zinc blende phase NCs with an average size of around 3 and 5 nm for TM:ZnSe and TM:ZnSe/ZnS NCs, respectively. PL spe...
