The use of self-assembled nanoparticles for drug delivery has received significant attention in recent years. However, the dynamic nature polymeric systems means there is a need to develop greater understanding inherent stability these systems. In particular, if materials remain as discrete nanoparticles, or exchange material between particles critical. Herein, we labelled pH-responsive with fl...

background and objectives: in this study, the proteolysis and lipolysis of poosti cheese produced from raw sheep milk in mountainous eastern regions of iran were investigated during 90 days of ripening. materials and methods: sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis for proteolysis (sds-page) and gas chromatography (gc) for free fatty acids (ffas) were applied to investigate th...

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, C(6)H(20)N(4) (2+)·2I(-), comprises half a 3,6-diaza-octane-1,8-diaminium dication plus an I(-) anion. The dications are symmetrical and lie across crystallographic centres of inversion. In the crystal, the ions form a network involving mainly weak N-H⋯I inter-molecular inter-actions: two H atoms of the ammonium group form inter-actions with two I(-) anion...

Molecular recognition of representative amino acids (A) by a chiral amido[4]resorcinarene receptor (1(L)) was investigated in the gas phase by ESI-FT-ICR mass spectrometry. The ligand displacement reaction between noncovalent diastereomeric [1(L).H.A](+) complexes and the 2-aminobutane enantiomers (B) exhibits a distinct enantioselectivity with regard to both the leaving amino acid A and the am...

The 2-amine-9H-purine scaffold was identified as a weak bromodomain template and was developed via iterative structure based design into a potent nanomolar ligand for the bromodomain of human BRD9 with small residual micromolar affinity toward the bromodomain of BRD4. Binding of the lead compound 11 to the bromodomain of BRD9 results in an unprecedented rearrangement of residues forming the ace...

A facility layout problem is concerned with determining the best position of departments, cells, or machines on the plant. An efficient layout contributes to the overall efficiency of operations. It’s been proved that, when system characteristics change, it can cause a significant increase in material handling cost. Consequently, the efficiency of the current layout decreases or is lost and it ...

The chemical dynamics of the reaction of ground state carbon atoms, C(3Pj), with vinyl cyanide, C2H3CN(X 1A'), were examined under single collision conditions at collision energies of 29.9 and 43.9 kJ mol(-1) using the crossed molecular beams approach. The experimental studies were combined with electronic structure calculations on the triplet C4H3N potential energy surface (H. F. Su, R. I. Kai...

Lightly branched, hyperbranched and cross-linked polymers with clickable sites were synthesized via a modified version of self-condensing photoinitiated copolymerization of methyl acrylate (MA) with propargyl acrylate (PA). The method is based on the use of a PA monomer containing two polymerizable groups, namely acrylate and propargyl groups with different reactivities in photoinitiated free r...

Poly(propargyl pyridinium bromide), a kind of conjugated polyelectrolyte with polyacetylene as the backbone and pyridinium as side groups, was synthesized simply via reaction between pyridine and propargyl bromide under mild conditions. The resultant polymer was characterized by (1)H NMR, elemental analysis, FT-IR, and GPC-MALLS. An alkyne group was confirmed as the end group of the polymer cha...
