[Ln(8)(SeO(3))(4)(2,6-pdc)(8)(H(2)O)(10)].2H(2)O (Ln = La (1), Nd (2), Eu (3); 2,6-pdcH(2) = pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) represent the first examples of luminescent lanthanide selenite-carboxylate compounds. The compounds have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. The structures feature two-dimensional (2D) host frameworks composed of Ln(8)(SeO(3))(4)(2,6-pdc)(8)(H...

Chitosan with sandalwood (Santalum album) essential oil (SEO) using malic acid as solvent were evaluated an active packaging film. It was applied sachet to butter packaging. The effects of SEO concentration (0.5 %, 1 % and 2 v/v) on chitosan film properties studied by measuring the equilibrium moisture content, solubility, water vapor permeability (WVP), mechanical, optical, heat sealability, a...

The abscisic aldehyde oxidase 3 (AAO3) gene product of Arabidopsis catalyzes the final step in abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis. An aao3-1 mutant in a Landsberg erecta genetic background exhibited a wilty phenotype in rosette leaves, whereas seed dormancy was not affected (Seo et al., 2000a). Therefore, it was speculated that a different aldehyde oxidase would be the major contributor to ABA bi...

We investigated the genetic relatedness of 5 community-acquired (CA) Staphylococcus aureus isolates obtained from 4 consecutive pediatric patients presenting with sepsis syndrome and severe pneumonia during a 3-week period in 2000. Two patients were infected with methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA), and 2 were infected with methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). The pulsed-field gel elect...

We experimentally study the phase-space distribution (PSD) of a mechanical resonator that is simultaneously coupled to two electromagnetic cavities. The first one, operating in the microwave band, is employed for inducing either cooling or self-excited oscillation (SEO), whereas the second one, operating in the optical band, is used for displacement detection. A tomography technique is employed...

The synthesis of two 2-formylquinolines is reported via the Skraup method followed by SeO(2) oxidation. Each aldehyde is condensed with (1R,2R)-diaminocyclohexane and (R)-BINAM, yielding four enantiomerically-pure bis(imine-quinoline) ligands. The neutral ligands are reacted with ZnCl(2) to give complexes with bis(bidentate) coordination of ZnCl(2) units. X-Ray structural characterization of th...
