BACKGROUND Amodiaquine (AQ) is paired with artesunate (AS) or sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) in recommended antimalarial regimens. It is unclear how readily AQ resistance will be selected with combination chemotherapy. METHODS We collected 61 Plasmodium falciparum samples from a cohort of Ugandan children randomized for treatment with AQ-SP, AS-AQ, or artemether-lumefantrine (AL) for uncompli...

Many researchers have performed various studies to discover the reasons for the impressive catalytic effect of anthraquinone. Discussions and experiments have been conducted on the chemistry, kinetics, and physical properties of anthraquinone (AQ). However, most of the previous research has neglected the role of mass transfer in AQ pulping. This paper describes our analysis and interpretation o...

Cytochrome c (Cytc) in airfree, aqueous media (pH ~7.4; 37°C) can emit e(-)(aq) when exited in single state by monochromatic UV light (λ=254 nm). The obtained Qi(e(-)(aq)) at lower Cytc concentrations is higher compared to the amount obtained at higher substrate concentrations because at >10(-8) mol l(-1) Cytc 'associates' (unstable complexes) are formed, which consume a part of the ejected e(-...

the properties of alkaline sulfite anthraquinone (as/aq) pulp from old corrugated container (occ)was studied. in each trial 100 grams (based on dry weigth) of occ and 18% active alkali was used.three levels of anthraquinone (0.0.1 and 0.2% based on dry weigth of the occ) and two pulpingtimes (120 and 150 minutes at maximum pulping temperature) were applied. pulping temperature,na2so3/naoh ratio...

Artesunate (AS) is used in combination with amodiaquine (AQ) as first-line treatment for uncomplicated malaria in many countries. We investigated the effect of concomitant AS administration on the pharmacokinetics of AQ and compared concentrations of desethylamodiaquine (DEAQ), the main metabolite of AQ, in plasma between patients with different variants of the cytochrome P4502C8 (CYP2C8) gene....

BACKGROUND The Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ) is widely used to quantify autistic traits, which have been evaluated in the parents of individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and in the general population. This paper's objective was to investigate the AQ's psychometric properties of the Chinese version for mainland China and to establish whether the pattern of sex differences in the quan...

increasingly, aq qoyunlu rule and ottoman empire were inclined to contradict in the half of 9th/15th century. access to central anatolia for aq qoyunlu was a pivotal enterprise by which could develop its commercial ties. in contrast, ottomans tried to counteract the aq qoyunlu strives and thwarted its close relation with venice since ottomans regarded the latter as an archenemy in europe. forem...
