The presence of butanoic acid excess in the reaction media employed for the synthesis of a MOF with formula [Cu(2)(μ(3)-ade)(2)(μ(2)-OOC(CH(2))(2)CH(3))(2)](n) (ade: adeninate) leads to the formation of micelles that exert a template effect and provide a pronounced increase of its microporosity, doubling the intrinsic adsorption capacity of the pristine crystal network.

A simple method to label oligosaccharides with a multifunctional fluorescent group was developed. Oligosaccharides were quantitatively labeled at their reducing termini with pyrene butanoic acid hydrazide. The pyrene-labeled oligosaccharides were successfully applied to fluorescence polarization measurements and ELISA at picomole quantity, which was not previously reached by other procedures. T...

Candida albicans (C. albicans) is a fungus that causes candidiasis. C. has the enzyme Lanosterol 14- α demethylase. 14-α-demethylase bioactivity in converting lanosterol to ergosterol, special sterol found fungal membranes, which mediates membrane permeability and fluidity. One way treat candidiasis use traditional medicinal plants. Sungkai (Peronema canescens) can be used as an anti-fungal med...

Kazakh cheese is a traditional dairy product in Xinjiang, China. To study the function and potential probiotic characteristics of yeast its contribution to fermentation, we screened γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)–producing yeasts Pichia kudriavzevii 1–21, Kluyveromyces marxianus B13–5, Saccharomyces cerevisiae DL6–20, lactis DY1–10. We investigated properties these strains their use fermentation (c...

Racemic fenvaleric acid [2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methyl-butanoic acid], the principal metabolite of fenvalerate, was administrated orally at 0.75, 1.5, and 3.0 mmol/kg body weight/day to Fisher-344 male rats for 7 days. Both pure enantiomers of fenvaleric acid were administered at 1.5 mmol/kg body weight/day; the clofibric acid at the same concentration was used as a positive control. Hepatic enzy...
