Stroke, one of the most debilitating cerebrovascular and nuerological diseases, is a serious life-threatening condition and a leading cause of long-term adult disability and brain damage, either directly or by secondary complications. Most effective treatments for stroke are time dependent such as the only FDA-approved therapy, reperfusion with tissue-type plasminogen activator; thus, improving...

BACKGROUND Cyanoform is long known as one of the strongest acid. Cyanoform is only stable below -40 °C. The issue of the stability and tautomeric equilibria of cyanoform (CF) are investigated at the DFT and MP2 levels of theory. The present work presents a detailed study of structural tautomer interconversion in three different media, namely, in the gas phase, in a solvent continuum, and in a m...

In this research work at The first compounds [C60- 2-(naftalin-1-ilmetil)-4,5-dihidro-1H-imidazol-C65-2X]+ (X=F,Cl,Br) were optimized. Then the calculation of natural bond orbitals was performed with the NBO technique. All calculations using Hartree- fock  the 6-31G * basis set using Gaussian 98 software and in gas phase has been done. The results showed that the energy levels of mol...

Acute ischemic stroke is a common and serious neurological disease. Oxygen therapy has been shown to increase oxygen supply to ischemic tissues and improve outcomes after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion. Normobaric hyperoxia (NBO), an easily applicable and non-invasive method, shows protective effects on acute ischemic stroke animals and patients in pilot studies. However, many critical scientifi...

in the present work, the structural and electronic properties, and conductivity of (5,5) and (6,6) single walled carbon nanotubes in the ground state have done by using the hartree-fock and density functional theory dft-b3lyp/6-31g* level. delocalization of charge density between the bonding or lone pair and antibonding orbitals calculated by nbo (natural bond orbital) analysis. these methods a...

The structure of the niobium oxide on alumina surface was investigated for low loading (5 wt.-%) and high loading (19 wt.-%) samples. The TPD profile of water molecules showed the appearance of water adsorption sites other than those on alumina. The XANES and EXAFS spectra clearly showed that niobic acid-like species are formed on the surface of 19 wt.-% NbO,/Al,O,. The XANES spectra of 5 wt.-%...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to investigate the natural history of the high signal intensities shown on long TR sequences-neurofibromatosis type 1 bright objects (NBO)-in children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). We have paid particular attention to the development of tumors in these areas of abnormality. METHODS During a 12-month period in 1992 to 1993, 46 children with clini...

Density function M06 method has been used to optimize the geometries of shikonin -thymine at 6-311++G** basis. Finally, fourteen stabilized complexes have been obtained. Theories of atoms in molecules (AIM) and natural bond orbital (NBO) have been utilized to investigate the hydrogen bonds involved in all the systems. The interaction energies of all the complexes were corrected by basis set sup...

The relative stability of the different tautomers of hydantoin has been studied through the use of DFT method. The structures and the vibrational frequencies of all stable tautomers and all the transitions states connecting between them have been calculated at the B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory in the gas phase and selected solvents using IE-PCM model. Final energies have been obtained in s...

Formation of C–H H–B dihydrogen bonded complexes of acetylene, fluoroacetylene, chloroacetylene, and cyanoacetylene with borane-trimethylamine were investigated with MP2 and B3LYP methods using 6-311++G(d,p) and aug-cc-pVDZ basis sets. The stabilization energies ranged from 6–20 kJ mol . NBO analysis predicts transfer of charge from r B–H bonding orbital to r* C–H anti-bonding orbital. It was a...
