Integral heat of solution measurements of barium chloride to 619.81 K, copper oxide in an excess of perrhenic acid to 585 K, and cobalt perrhenate in perrhenic acid to 573 K were measured in a high dilution calorimeter (< or =10(-3) m) at psat, from which the high temperature thermodynamic properties of aqueous barium chloride, copper perrhenate, and cobalt perrhenate were obtained. From the kn...

The prime molecular target of glyphosate (N-[phosphonomethyl]glycine), a potent herbicidal and antimicrobial agent, is known to be the shikimate-pathway enzyme, 5-enol-pyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase. Inhibition by glyphosate of an earlier pathway enzyme that is located in the cytosol of higher plants, 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase (DS-Co), has raised the possibilit...

BACKGROUND Prolonged deep hypothermic circulatory arrest is known to cause neurological injury. Hypoxia inducible factor, a transcription factor that mediates adaptive changes during hypoxia, is neuroprotective in models of ischemic brain injury, in part by upregulating erythropoietin. This study tested the hypothesis that upregulation of hypoxia inducible factor and erythropoietin by precondit...

In the present investigation the effect of cobalt chloride (CoCl ), ethylene biosynthesis inhibitor and 2 silver nitrate (AgNO ), ethylene perception inhibitor was studied on the seed germination of Vigna radiata. 3 While ethylene slightly promoted germination, both the inhibitors decreased the germination percentage. However, Ag was more effective in retarding germination than Co . A combined ...

Inhibition of prolyl hydroxylase domain-containing protein (PHD) by hypoxia stabilizes hypoxia-inducible factor 1 and increases the expression of target genes, such as vascular endothelial growth factor. Although the systemic renin-angiotensin system is activated by hypoxia, the role of PHD in the regulation of the renin-angiotensin system remains unknown. We examined the effect of PHD inhibiti...

Salidroside is a major constituent of Rhodiola rosea L. that elicits beneficial effects for ischemic cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of salidroside on endothelial cells apoptosis induced by the hypoxia mimicking agent, cobalt chloride. After challenge with cobalt chloride for 24 h, loss of cell viability and excessive apoptotic cell death...

BACKGROUND Patch testing is an essential procedure in the investigation of eczema in children. OBJECTIVES To analyse the frequency of contact hypersensitivity and allergic contact dermatitis among Polish children with eczema. PATIENTS/METHODS During an allergy screening programme involving 9320 children aged 7 and 16 years, 12.6% reported symptoms of chronic/recurrent eczema. From this grou...

The redox behavior cobalt chloride was studied voltammetrically in presence and absence of L- Carrageenan (LK) natural polymer using glassy carbon electrodes in 0.1 M KCl supporting electrode. Scan rates are studied for the redox behaviors for CoCl2 alone or in presence of L- Carrageenan (LK) natural polymer. Stability constants for the interaction of cobalt ions with L - Carageenan (LK) natura...
