The photoredox-mediated coupling of benzylic ethers with Schiff bases has been accomplished. Direct benzylic C-H activation by a combination of a thiol catalyst with an iridium photocatalyst and subsequent radical-radical coupling with secondary aldimines affords a variety of β-amino ether products in good to excellent yields. Mechanistic studies suggest that a reductive quenching pathway of th...

Left-sided portal hypertension (LSPH), also known as sinistral or segmental portal hypertension, is associated with esophagogastric varices extending from the lower esophagus to greater curvature of the gastric body (Wang et al., 2012). It mainly occurs as a result of isolated thrombosis or obstruction of the splenic vein brought out by pancreatic disorders, and is one of the rare causes of upp...

Aliphatic amines can form secondary aerosol via oxidation with atmospheric radicals (e.g., hydroxyl radical and nitrate radical). The particle can contain both secondary organic aerosol (SOA) and inorganic salts. The ratio of organic to inorganic materials in the particulate phase influences aerosol hygroscopicity and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity. SOA formed from trimethylamine (TMA...

Spores of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Funneliformis mosseae (Nicolson & Gerdemann) Walker & Schuessler were cultured in association with transformed roots of Linum usitatissimum L. (Linaceae) for the first time on modified Strullu-Romand medium (pH 5.5) in monoxenic culture. Germ tubes emerged through the spore wall in 88% of spores after 5 days. Hyphal contact with transformed linum roo...

The phytochemical profile of Aloe barbadensis Mill. and Aloe arborescens Mill. was investigated using colorimetric assays, triple quadrupole and time-of-flight mass spectrometry, focusing on phenolic secondary metabolites in the different leaf portions. Hydroxycinnamic acids, several characteristic anthrones and chromones, the phenolic dimer feralolide and flavonoids such as flavones and isofla...

The cecal appendix mucocele is considered a cystic dilation of obstructive etiology that produces an accumulation mucoid substance. It may be benign or malignant origin. 50-year-old female, with no significant personal pathological history, presents repetitive clinical symptoms abdominal pain, similar to the process acute appendicitis, without systemic inflammatory response data, which improves...

Peganum harmala L. (Zygophyllaceae) is one of the most important medicinal plants had been used in traditional medicine in North of Iran as anti parasite, anti inflammatiom, anti tumor and anti infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate of ecological factors , ethno pharmacology and record of the relationship between secondary metabolites content and their antioxidant activity in seeds ex...
