a thermodynamic study on the interaction between zinc ion (zn2+) and human growth hormone(hgh) was studied at two temperatures of 27c and 37c in aqueous solution using an isothermal titrationcalorimetry. it was found that there is a set of three identical and non-interacting binding sites for zn2+ ions. the intrinsic dissociation equilibrium constant and the molar enthalpy of binding are 1.54...

[(11)C]Carfentanil (CFN) is a mu-opioid agonist used for in vivo positron emission tomography (PET) studies of mu-opioid receptors. Previously, a tissue-ratio method was validated for the quantification of CFN binding. However, since that initial validation, several other blood independent (reference-tissue) methods have become available. To evaluate these methods, CFN PET studies with arterial...

In this work, the template, monomer, and cross-linker with the ratio of 1:8:40 were used to synthesize Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) for extraction of the bioactive chemical compounds from some traditional herbs as a sorbent material. Quercetin, Methacrylic Acid (MAA), Trimethylolpropanetrimethacrylate (TRIM) and Tetrahydrofuran (THF) were used as a template, funct...

  Introduction: Ubiquicidin 29-41 (UBI) is a fragment of the cationic antimicrobial peptide that is present in various species including humans. The purpose of this study was to investigate radiochemical and biological characteristics of [6-hydrazinopyridine-3-carboxylic acid (HYNIC)]-UBI 29-41 designed for the labeling with 99mTc using tricine as coligand....

A heparin glycan chip (HepGlyChip) with a 4800-fold enhanced signal-to-noise ratio as compared with the control without heparin was developed for high-throughput analysis of heparin-protein interactions for new drug development and for screening biological samples in diagnostic applications. As a proof of concept, a heparin glycan microarray was prepared on a poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) (...

a thermodynamic study of copper ions by jack bean urease (jbu) was carried out at two temperatures of 27 and 37?c in tris buffer (30 mm; ph=7.0) using an isothermal titration calorimetry. there is a set of twelve identical and non-interacting binding sites for copper ions. the intrinsic dissociation equilibrium constant and the molar enthalpy of binding are 285 µm and ?15.2 kj/mol at 27?c and 3...

Background: Newborn gender ratio is one of the most important factors in livestock industry. This ratio has affected on economic condition and controls sex-linked genetically transferred diseases. Offspring sex ratio is affected by such various factors. One of these factors is the Y to X bearing sperm ratio in normal semen that is called primary sex ratio, season and individual differences are ...
