A novel, non-covalent polymeric nanosheet has been produced through small molecule self-assembly; the structure has been characterized by solution NMR, solid-state NMR, powder XRD and AFM.

due to unique applications of palladium nanoparticles, synthesis of these nanoparticles by a simple andlow cost method is very important. in this work, pd nanoparticles were synthesized with narrow sizedistribution by loading metal salt (pd(oac)2 ) into the polymeric matrix (peg) as reducing agent andstabilizer. also, the effect of metal salt concentration and peg molecular weight on the conver...

Protein delivery across polarized epithelia is controlled by receptor-mediated transcytosis. Many studies have examined basolateral-to-apical trafficking of polymeric IgA (pIgA) by the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR). Less is known about apical-to-basolateral transcytosis, the direction the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) transports maternal IgGs across intestinal epithelia. To compare api...

An analytical method, based on separation with gas chromatography (GC) and detection with optical fiber (OF), was used for the separation, detection and quantification of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, p-xylene, m-xylene and o-xylene. The use of OF as a detector is based on the variations of the reflected optical power detected when the aromatic compounds eluted from the GC column are sorbed i...

A 75-year-old male received neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the mid-thoracic esophagus, followed by right transthoracic esophagectomy with extended mediastinal lymphadenectomy. Cardiac tamponade developed on postoperative Days 1 and 13, for which emergency ultrasound-guided drainage was required. Pericardial drainage fluid became chylous after administra...

Understanding of viscoelastic drop impact on porous solid surfaces emerges as the essential physics for broad industrial and biological systems. However, there have been few studies concerning post-drop transition considering rheological properties dynamics. Here, we report post-impact dynamics drops mesh using experimental theoretical analyses. Five concentrations highly viscous polymer soluti...

preparation and uses of quinaldinium dichromate and its polymeric analogue poly (2- vinylquinolinium) dichromate as the new monomeric and polymeric oxochromium-amine complex reagents for oxidizing variousorganic compounds, with emphasis on the latter, are described

The accurate prediction of protein stability is one of the most challenging goals in protein formulation and delivery. In this study, a gradient RP-HPLC method is described for the separation of human growth hormone (hGH) variants as deamidated and oxidized forms. The methodology employed a polymeric poly (styrene-co-divinylbenzene) column and a 1mL/min flow rate of a linear gradient of 0.1% v/...

An analytical method for the simultaneous determination of tetracycline (TC), oxtetracycline (OTC), chlortetracycline (CTC) with their 4-epimers, and doxycycline (DC) in animal tissues has been developed and validated. The extraction of the analytes from biological matrice was carried out with a 0.02 M oxalic acid (pH=4.0). The samples were cleaned up by using a solid phase extraction procedure...

Mikanin-3-O-sulfate (1), in the form of its potassium salt, together with mikanin (2) and alpinetin (3) were isolated from Mikania micrantha. The crystal structures of K(1) x CH3OH, 2 and 3 x H2O were established by X-ray crystallography. The potassium ions in K(1) x CHO3H are bridged by O5, O7 and O8 to form a chain of face-sharing KO8 coordination polyhedra, from which the aglycon units are o...
