Schistosomula of Schistosoma mansoni were labeled by oxidation with galactose oxidase or with periodate followed by reduction with NaB3H4 to study the loss of the surface membrane of these parasites in vitro. Grain counts of light microscope autoradiographs (LMARG) of radiolabeled schistosomula show that both galactose oxidase and periodate specifically label the surface of the organisms. Galac...

Abstract The heterogeneous catalyst Mackinawite (FeS) was applied to activate periodate (IO4?) degrade endocrine disruptors bisphenol AF (BPAF). This study investigated the influence of FeS dosage, BPAF concentration, initial pH value and inorganic ions on degradation by FeS/IO4? system. results showed that effectively degraded acidic exhibited higher efficiency in compared with alkaline neutra...

The preparation and characterization of the nBu4N+ salts of two bis-orotate(2-) complexes of cobalt, namely bis(tetra-n-butylammonium) diaquabis(2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-1-ide-6-carboxylato-κ2N1,O6)cobalt(II) 1.8-hydrate, (C16H36N)2[Co(C5H2N2O4)2(H2O)2]·1.8H2O, (1), and tetra-n-butylammonium (2,2'-bipyridine-κ2N,N')bis(2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-1-ide-6-carboxylato-κ2N1,...

Bovine erythrocytes, which are not concanavalin A (ConA)-agglutinable, can be rendered so by attaching alpha-D-mannose residues to their outer membrane. The sugars are incorporated by mildly oxidizing the cells with periodate followed by coupling the liberated aldehyde groups with an alpha-thiomannosyl containing hydrazide (I). The rate and extent of ConA-mediated aggregation of the modified ce...

We previously reported that thymidine kinase (TK) activity in a spontaneously TK-deficient (TK-) murine tumor cell line (called L61-M) could be partially restored following brief treatment of the cells in vitro with the potent DNA-hypomethylating agent 5-azacytidine. We now show here that similar results may be obtained by exposing cells in vitro to periodate-oxidized adenosine, a potent inacti...

Porcine mucosal heparin was fragmented into low-molecular-weight (LMW) heparin by treatment of periodate-oxidized heparin with sodium hydroxide, followed by reduction with sodium borohydride and acid hydrolysis. Gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis showed a mixture of heparin fragments with an average size of eight disaccharide units. 1D 1H NMR showed two-thirds of the N-acetyl ...

Variable temperature EPR spectra of KNilOß • 0.5 H2O have established that the paramagnetic behavior of this compound (~ 1 BM) is due to the presence of nickel(III) atoms which have occupied some nickel(IV) sites in the crystal lattices. Change of spectral pattern from rhombic (77 K) to isotropic (300 K) is due to a dynamic Jahn-Teller effect. Electrical conductivity measurement has shown it to...
