A series of 3-alkoxy-4-(4-(hexyloxy/heptyloxy) phenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole was synthesized. The anticonvulsant effect and neurotoxicity of the compounds were calculated with maximal electroshock (MES) test and rotarod tests with intraperitoneally injected mice. Among the synthesized compounds, compound 3-heptyloxy-4-(4-(hexyloxy) phenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole (5f) was the most active one and also had...

Counterfactual thoughts typically take the form of implied or explicit if-then statements. We propose that the multiplicative combination of "if likelihood" (the degree to which the antecedent condition of the counterfactual is perceived to be likely) and "then likelihood" (the perceived conditional likelihood of the outcome of the counterfactual, given the antecedent condition) determine the s...

Shotgun proteomics using mass spectrometry is a powerful method for protein identification but suffers limited sensitivity in complex samples. Integrating peptide identifications from multiple database search engines is a promising strategy to increase the number of peptide identifications and reduce the volume of unassigned tandem mass spectra. Existing methods pool statistical significance sc...

We attempted to determine the number of sperm cells required for genotyping of one microsatellite marker. The crude genomic DNA extracted from about 760 or more sperm cells gave sufficient quantity of PCR product using a 20 microl-scale PCR. We also studied the effects of non-ionic detergents on extraction of crude sperm genomic DNA. PCR products amplified with the crude sperm genomic DNA extra...

a bacteriological investigation performed on the biopsies of 1 30 patients with gastrointestinal disorders at the gi section of imam khomeini hospital concluded in the isolation of 100 cases of helicobacler pylori. the antibacterial effects of bismuth salts alone and in synergy with tetracycline and metronidazole were evaluated on the basis of disc diffusion method on 5 randomly selected pure c...
