Abstract Aryl amines are synthesized from halobenzenes via copper mediated reactions employing sodium azide under mild conditions in ethanol/water. The reaction proceeds stepwise the aryl azide, which is reduced to corresponding amine in‐situ . methodology allows syntheses of para ‐, meta ‐ and ortho ‐bromobenzenes bearing electron withdrawing groups. Bifunctional alkanoyl chains with terminal ...

abstract kinetic properties of root of peroxidase of gundelia tournefortii investigated at different ph, temperature and different inhibitors. maximum activity of peroxidase achieved at ph 5.5-6 in according to type of substrate. activity of peroxidase increased at constant concentration of h2o2 and different concentration of guaiacol, catechol and pyrogallol. the maximum activity in presence o...

A variety of benzamidomethyl derivatives were prepared in water under alkaline conditions (pH>9) via reaction of (benzamidomethyl)triethylammonium chloride (1) with different inorganic nucleophiles. Reaction of 1 with hydroxylamine did not give the expected mono(benzamidomethyl)-hydroxylamine (3) but rather gave N,N- di(benzamidomethyl)hydroxylamine (2). Reactions of 1 with sodium azide and pot...

Coenzyme Q(10) (CoQ(10)) productions from Rhizobium radiobacter T6102 were monitored under various oxygen supply conditions by controlling the agitation speeds, aeration rates, and dissolved oxygen levels. As the results, the CoQ(10) production was enhanced by limited oxygen supply. To investigate whether the CoQ(10) production is associated with its physiological functions of electron carrier ...

Panaeolus sphinctrinus, Panaeolus papilionaceus, and Coprinus friesii are described as producers of ligninolytic enzymes. P. papilionaceus and P. sphinctrinus both produced a laccase. In addition, P. sphinctrinus produced a manganese peroxidase. C. friesii secreted a laccase and two peroxidases similar to the peroxidase of Coprinus cinereus. The purified laccases and peroxidases were characteri...

Sheep red blood cells (SRBCs) rapidly aggregated when injected into the blood (hemolymph) of living silkworms. SRBCs also rapidly aggregated when incubated with hemolymph in vitro. SRBCs did not aggregate when incubated with single hemolymph components, hemocytes and cell-free plasma separated by centrifugation, whereas incubation with the mixture of components induced SRBC aggregation, suggest...

In the present study, the Salmonella typhimurium tester strain TA 100 was used in the plate-incorporation test to examine the antimutagenic potential of caffeic, ferulic and cichoric acids extracted from plant species of genera Echinacea (L) Moench, as well as of another phenolic acids, on 3-(5-nitro-2-furyl)acrylic acid (5NFAA) and sodium azide mutagenicity. All tested compounds possess antimu...

In this study, four cytotoxicity detection assays and four cytotoxic mechanisms were compared in one cellular system. Cellular responses and their effects were characterized. The assays used are based on different modes of detection like LDH release, MTT metabolism, neutral red uptake and the ATP content of treated cells. As cytotoxic mechanisms were used the model agents triton X-100, chloroqu...

Utilizing cell preparations that contained greater than 90% eosinophils and sodium azide to inhibit the lysosomal enzyme peroxidase, studies of eosinophil bactericidal activity were undertaken. Eosinophils did not kill bacteria as well as neutrophils, principally because of a reduced phagocytic capacity. In contrast to neutrophils, eosinophils had high resting iodination activity but failed to ...

The effect of cytochalasin B (CB) on the surface structure of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells was investigated using the scanning electron microscope. The effect occurs in two steps: formation of zeiotic knobs on the cell surface and subsequent grouping of the knobs at one pole of the cell. The early step of zeiotic knob formation occurs at low concentrations of CB (0.5-1 microgram/ml) at 37 degree...
