With the proteomics concept introduction and effective projects implement as Human Plasma Project, the proteomics research is being developed rapidly, which is based on the analytical chemistry and physical chemistry. More and more biologists paid attention to this field, and got some important results in cell biology and biochemistry. The variation of protein quantity and various modifications...

A previously screened "hit chemistry" (N-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl] methacrylamide) that supports strong attachment and long-term self-renewal of ES cells is selected and grafted to poly(ether sulfone) (PES) fibrous matrices through plasma-induced graft polymerization. The 3D modified fibers exhibit higher cell proliferation and greater expression of pluripotency markers of mouse ES cells than 2...

The dissociation of chlorosilanes to silicon and its deposition on a solid substrate in a rf plasma of mixtures of argon and hydrogen were investigated as a function of the macrovariables of the plasma. The dissociation mechanism of 0 chlorosilanes and HC1 as well as the formation of Si in the plasma state were CM o 00 studied by sampling the plasma with a quadrupole mass spectrometer. MacroLiJ...

This volume is consistent with previous issues in providing annual monographs covering a wide range of topics in medicinal chemistry. Volume 10 follows a similar pattern in consisting of six major sections each edited by competent section editors: I, CNS Agents by M. Gordon; II, Pharmacodynamic Agents, by F.H. Clarke; III, Chemotherapeutic Agents by G. H. Warren; IV, Metabolic Diseases, Endocri...

Polymeric surfaces have been increasingly plasma-activated to adopt adequate chemistries, enabling their use in different applications. An unavoidable surface oxygen insertion upon exposure non-oxygen-containing plasmas was always observed and mainly attributed in-plasma oxidation stemming from O2 impurities plasma reactors. Therefore, this work investigates exclusive processes occurring on pol...

Pollution affects aquatic systems worldwide and there is an urgent need for efficient monitoring. Fish are generally sensitive to their environment and are thus considered to be valuable bioindicator species. The African Sharptooth catfish (Clarias gariepinus) is particularly important in this respect because of its very wide distribution. In order to use C. gariepinus as a bioindicator species...

This study explores the co-deposition of thin polymeric films loaded with nanoparticles for its possible future application as radiation detectors. Thin containing zinc oxide (ZnO) in plasma polymerized n-hexane (PPH) were deposited on silicon substrates using an atmospheric pressure jet (APPJ). Crystalline ZnO produced by wet chemistry, characterized, and injected through aerosol buffer. The p...

thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is the result of multiple thrombus disseminated in small arterioles throughout the body. principle damage is in the endothelium of small vessels and capillaries. from 1982 to 1999, 28 patients (16 female and 12 male) have been treated for ttp. the outcome was evaluated for risk factors and prognosis. these patients were 18 to 69 years old. all had neurologica...

Titan has long been known to harbour the richest atmospheric chemistry in the Solar System. Until recently, it had been believed that complex hydrocarbons and nitriles were produced through neutral chemistry that would eventually lead to the formation of micrometre sized organic aerosols. However, recent measurements by the Cassini spacecraft are drastically changing our understanding of Titan'...

Fatemeh Karimi Tabar was born in Asadabad/Hamedan (Iran) in 1986. She completed her B.Sc. in chemistry in 2008 from Bu-Ali Sina University, Hamedan, Iran. She was graduated from M.Sc. degree in organic chemistry from Shiraz University 2010, Shiraz, Iran. She is currently Organic Chemistry Ph.D student under the supervision of prof. M.A. Zolfigol and prof. A. Khazaei in department of chemistry a...
