Currently, mammalian cell technology has become the focus of biopharmaceutical production, with strict regulatory scrutiny of the techniques employed. Major concerns about the presence of animal-derived components in the culture media led to the development of serum-free (SF) culture processes. However, cell adaptation to SF conditions is still a major challenge and limiting step of process dev...

The title compound, {(C6H21N4)[V3O9]·H2O} n , crystallizes as a salt with [trenH3](3+) cations [tren is tris-(2-amino-eth-yl)amine], and one-dimensional anionic {[V(V)O3](-)} n (metavanadate) chains along the c-axis direction. Three crystallographically distinct V(V) sites and one occluded water mol-ecule are present for every [trenH3](3+) cation in the unit cell. The {[V(V)O3](-)} n chains are...

tidepressants, a group of drugs widely used for treating depressive diseases. Its chemical structure is shown in Fig. 1. Most existing methods for the determination of nortriptyline in bulk, pharmaceutical formulations and biological samples have been reviewed. Among other methods described for the assay of this drug are direct UV-spectrophotometry, derivatives spectrophotometry, fluorimetry an...

New forms of vanadium oxide Nanoporous were fabricated using a simple chemical synthesis method. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) Nanoporous were synthesized by sodium metavanadate as precursor and ethylene glycol as surfactant. The samples were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), field effect scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), Four...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic illness causing considerable morbidity and mortality. Enormous advances have been made in medical care but more people are still having tendency to use herbal or alternative remedies. This study is a randomized, controlled trial on type 2 diabetic patients. The subject consisted of 60 patients divided randomly into three groups and supple-mented daily with ...

Nano-materials have unique physical properties that have attracted more and more attention as a cathode in rechargeable ion batteries and selective gas sensors such as ammonia because of their high surface area and redox activity [1-3]. Biological activity of vanadium pentoxide nanomaterial depends on factors such as the type of the derivative, manner of its administration, dose, length of trea...

Multistage mass spectrometry experiments reveal a sequence of gas phase reactions for the oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde with a mononuclear oxo vanadate anion as the catalyst and dioxygen as the terminal oxidant.
