Cisplatin, a platinum-based drug, is an important weapon against many types of cancer. It induces apoptosis by forming adducts with DNA, although many aspects of its mechanism of action remain to be clarified. Previously, we found a role for the volume-sensitive, outwardly rectifying Cl(-) channel in cisplatin-induced apoptosis. To investigate the possibility that cation channels also have a ro...

textile effluents contain different kinds of chemical dyes and many mutagenic and carcinogenic substances. discharge of these effluents into terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems causes harmful effects. in this research, decolorization of a textile effluent by nineteen different strains of fungi was investigated. removal activity of dyes was in order of   aspergillus > rhizopus > fuzarium > penici...

dye removal from effluents of textile industries of iran was investigated through biodegradabilitymethod and membrane technology . basic, reactive,disperse and acidic dyes were selected, based onusage rate in iran. the zahen - welenze method (iso 9888) was applied to study the biodegradabilityof dyes. results showed the final cod and dye removal (%r) as (%61,% 57), (%73, %76), (%25, %14),and (%...

background and objectives: synthetic dyes are recalcitrant to degradation and toxic to different organisms. decolorization of textile wastewaters is one of the major concerns since last decades. physical-chemical treatments are very expensive and frequently producing large amounts of toxic wastes. biological treatments can be more convenient. in the present study, an attempt has been made for d...

Eine Vielzahl funktionalisierter Triarylmethane und 1,1-Diarylalkanderivate wurde mithilfe übergangsmetallfreier, Ein-Topf- oder Zwei-Schritt-Verfahren durch Reaktionen verschiedener Benzaldiacetate mit Organozinkreagenzien hergestellt. sequentielle Kreuzkupplung ist einen Wechsel des Lösungsmittels von THF auf Toluol möglich. Ein zweitstufiger SN1-artiger Mechanismus vorgeschlagen mittels expe...

In the present study, five naphthalene-based azo dyes were obtained using classical azo coupling reactions. The structure of the dyes was characterized and confirmed by the UV-vis, FT-IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR analyses. The solvatochromic behavior of the dyes was studied in a set of 10 solvents with different polarity and considerable results were obtained. The dyes were applied as disperse dyes t...

Labeling of metastatic tumors can aid in their staging and resection of cancer. Near infrared (NIR) dyes have been used in the clinic for tumor labeling. However, there can be a nonspecific uptake of dye by the liver, lungs, and lymph nodes, which hinders detection of metastasis. In order to overcome these problems, we have used two NIR dyes (DyLight 650 and 750) conjugated to a chimeric anti-c...

The use of reactive dyes has increased rapidly due to outstanding properties, growing consumption of cellulosic fibers, and decrease in the production of other application classes of dyes for cellulosics because of cost and health hazards. However, reactive dyes cause the greatest effluent problems for the dye industry. This study explored reusing these dyes in which the residual dyeings were d...

objective: the aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of two caries detector dyes in the diagnosis of dental caries. materials and methods: twenty extracted human posterior teeth without pulpal exposure were sectioned mesiodistally through the center of the lesions using a water-cooled disk. the tooth halves were randomly divided into two groups and treated with caries detector (...
