The solubility of andradite garnet was determined at 800 °C and 10 kbar in a solution of 10 mol% NaCl and 90 mol% H2O. Experiments were syntheses carried out with high-purity natural wollastonite, reagent hematite or natural specular hematite containing ~1 wt% TiO2, and fluid. All experiments were performed with Mn2O3-Mn3O4 or Fe2O3-Fe3O4 oxygen buffers in a piston-cylinder apparatus with NaCl ...

The i.v. anaesthetic agents propofol, thiopentone and etomidate inhibited ACTH-stimulated production of cortisol by guineapig dispersed adrenal cells in a dose-related manner. For two of the drugs, propofol and thiopentone, inhibition occurred over a similar concentration range: 2 X 10(-5) - 5 X 10(-4) mol litre-1. With etomidate, inhibition occurred over a much lower concentration range (5 X 1...

In the title compound, [Na(C(10)H(9)O(6))(C(10)H(10)O(6))]·0.5C(10)H(8)N(2)·H(2)O, the Na atom is eight-coordinated in an distorted dicapped-octa-hedral geometry by eight O atoms from a 2-(2-carb-oxy-meth-oxy-phen-oxy)acetate (o-BDOAH) anion and a 2,2'-(o-phenyl-enedi-oxy)diacetic acid (o-BDOAH(2)) mol-ecule. The uncoordinated 4,4'-bipyridine mol-ecule is arranged around an inversion center and...

1. BDF 9148 is a newly synthesized congener of DPI 201-106 in which the piperazidinyl moiety has been replaced by an azetidine-3-oxy-moiety. The inotropic effect of both drugs was studied as well as their influence on the action potential, by use of standard microelectrode techniques. 2. BDF 9148 increased the contractile force of guinea-pig atria and papillary muscles. The EC50 was 1.32 X 10(-...

Microphysiological techniques and computer-based methods of data acquisition and analysis were used to investigate the dynamics of neurochemical action on spontaneous contractions of continuously perfused oviducts and hindguts isolated from female mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti). Proctolin, leucomyosuppressin (LMS), serotonin and octopamine, which are known to modulate insect muscle contractions, an...

ebola is one of the members of filoviruses family. it causes severe hemorrhagic with the human mortality rate of 50-90%. in the initial steps of infection, it enters the host cell by glyco protein1 (gp1). gp1 is a big subunit with the molecular weight of 130 kda. its n-terminal domain is responsible for attaching the host cell. in the present study, a database containing 100.000 drug like chemi...

BACKGROUND Arginine vasopressin (AVP) not only acts directly on blood vessels through V1 receptor stimulation but also may modulate adrenergic-mediated responses in animal experiments in vivo and in vitro. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether AVP can contribute to an abnormal adrenergic constrictor response of human saphenous veins. METHODS AND RESULTS Saphenous vein rings ...

1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of 1 mol or 2 mol of dibenzalaceton with 1 mol of non-stabilized azomethinylides generated in situ by decarboxylative condensation of isatin and proline or sarcosine give the novel new spiro-oxindolo(pyrrolizidines/ pyrrolidines) instead of bis-spirooxindolo( pyrrolizidines/ pyrrolidines).

The title compound, C(10)H(10)N(2)O, crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit, having closely comparable geometries. The dihedral angles between the 1H-pyrazole and benzene rings in the two mol-ecules are 39.57 (14) and 41.95 (13)°. The two mol-ecules are each connected to neighbouring mol-ecules by pairs of inter-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming dimers with R(...
