The tumoricidal effect of herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSV-tk) gene transfer followed by ganciclovir (GCV) treatment has been demonstrated in relation to the bystander effect. We examined the mode of cell death after GCV treatment in three human oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cell lines that had been infected with adenovirus possessing HSV-tk gene. Oral SCC cell lines displayed hi...

Electrochemical oxidation of 2’-deoxyguanosine-5’-triphosphate (dGTP) was investigated on the ionic liquid modified carbon paste microelectrode by cyclic voltammetry in this paper. The carbon ionic liquid microelectrode (mCILE) was prepared with ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethylsulfate ([Emim][EtOSO3]) as the modifier. Then the electrochemical process of dGTP on the mCILE was recor...

Satureja hortensis L. unifloral honey was characterized by pollen analysis, electrical conductivity, pH and extensively by chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. UV / VIS spectroscopy measurements revealed total phenol content of 682.1 mg GAE / kg by Folin-Ciocalteu assay, antioxidant capacity by DPPH assay of 1.7 mmol TEAC / kg and by FRAP assay of 4.3 mmol Fe / kg as well as CIE L*a*b*...

The enthalpies of dilution of solutions of two bile salts in water and aqueous NaCI were measured over a range of solute concentrations encornpassing the critical micellization concentrations (c.m.c.). The compounds were sodium taurodeoxycholate and sodium tauro choiate. An isoperibolic reaction calorimeter was used. The observed changes of enthalpies of dilution as a function of surfactant and...

This communication presents preliminary results of studies on the mite fauna observed in the spruce stands of the Bucegi Massif in central Romania. In the collected material a total of 6436 specimens were found, which were classified to 62 species from 15 families. The most numerous were the species Veigaia nemorensis (1660 individuals), Leptogamasus parvulus (804) and Leptogamasus tectegynellu...
