A cytosolic spermidine N-acetyltransferase has been partially purified from livers of rats treated with carbon tetrachloride or thioacetamide. This enzyme formed N’-acetylspermidine when incubated with spermidine and acetyl-coA. The enzyme was also able to acetylate spermine, norspermidine, norspermine and, at a much slower rate, 1,3-diaminopropane. Putrescine, cadaverine, homospermidine, and ...

ricinus communis linn. (euphorbiaceae) is a soft wooded tree widely prevalent throughout tropics regions of the world which have a warm temperature. in the indian system of medicine, the leaves, roots and seed oil of this plant have been used for the treatment of inflammation and liver disorders for a long time. in the present study, the protective effects of ethanol extract of ricinus communis...

We present eight cases of chemical burns of the eyes from titanium tetrachloride, an acidic corrosive liquid. However it causes severe chemical burns which have a protracted course and features more akin to severe alkali burns. Injuries related to titanium tetrachloride should be treated seriously and accordingly appropriate management is suggested.

Cancer is a life-threatening disease, curing it one of the primary tasks for scientists around world. One major fields that have exceptional abilities to control cancer nanotechnology and nano medicines. Zinc oxide nanoparticles flexible platforms therapeutic biomedical practice. There vital need manufacture new anti-cancerous drug. great potential act as an A common effect zinc nanoparticle ca...

the study of toxicities which are caused by free radical inducing chemicals (e.g., carbon tetrachloride), helps to determine the mode of action of those important drugs which act by inhibiting free radicals. evaluation of toxicities induced by carbon tetrachloride and phenobarbitone administration was carried out in seventy healthy male rabbits. each animal received cci4 0.25-0.5 ml/kg body wei...

The aqueous extract of Abutilon indicum was tested for hepatoprotective activity against carbon tetrachloride- and paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicities in rats. A. indicum exhibited significant hepatoprotective activity by reducing carbon tetrachloride- and paracetamol-induced change in bio-chemical parameters that was evident by enzymatic examination. The plant extract may interfere with free-...

Raman spectra of Carbon Tetrachloride and Methanol solutions were measured. Spectral lines ν3,νcom(ν1+ν4) of Carbon Tetrachloride Vibrational Spectra were analyzed. The results showed that Fermi resonance coefficients depend on methanol concentration, besides to the existence of clear effect for the polarization of carbon on these coefficients. In addition, cases of splitting in the energy leve...

In the Journal of the American Mcdical Association of November 19th, 1921, there appeared a note by Maurice C. Hall on the use of Carbon tetrachloride for the removal of hookworms in animals. Dr. Hall is the senior zoologist, United States Bureau of Animal Industry, and he found this drug to be a powerful anthelmintic in dogs* and suggested its trial in human uncinariasis. Carbon tetrachloride ...
