The physico-chemical and microbiological properties of wheat flour samples (type 650) obtained from 7 different locations in the Thrace region (Turkey) were assessed. Totally 142 wheat flour samples were analysed physicochemically in terms of ash, moisture, fat acidity, and protein amounts, and microbiologically in terms of total mesophilic aerobic bacteria (TMAB), Escherichia coli, Bacillus ce...

the purpose of this study was comparison of applicability of tertiary treatment of tehran domestic sewage with organic and inorganic coagulants or a combination of them. the far test procedure was applied utilizing: alum, polyelectrolyte wt 2600, anionic polyelectorlyte wt 3000, and nonionic polyelctrolyte wt 2690 as organic coagulants (products of calgon). the combination of lime with each of ...

single walled nanotubes (swnt) are common interested nanovehicle to make biosensors more sensitive.carbon nanotubes (cnts) have many distinct properties make them to be exploited to develop the nextgeneration of such nano sensors .the keto-enol tautomerization is one of the most common investigatedsubjects of isomerism in this regards, sensors are devices that are able to detect and change the ...

A systematic study of the physico-chemical properties of a series of new catanionic surfactants with ionic liquid properties is reported. Importantly, by avoiding environmentally unfriendly halide and imidazolium based moieties highly tunable surfactant ionic liquids have been prepared.

The syntheses and the structural, spectroscopic, and chemical properties of phosphirenes, phosphirene-transition metal complexes, and silirenes are discussed and compared. Close analogies are noted in the synthetic schemes and physico-chemical properties of the two types of three-membered rings.

Boehmite (γ-AlOOH) nanoparticles (NPs) are used in a wide range of industrial applications. However, little is known about their potential toxicity. This study aimed at a better understanding of the relationship between the physico-chemical properties of these NPs and their in vitro biological activity. After an extensive physico-chemical characterization, the cytotoxicity, pro-inflammatory res...

Leucinostatin, a peptide antibiotic, was separated by silica gel and alumina column chromatography into two related components designated as leucinostatin A hydrochloride (C61H111-N11O13.HCl) and leucinostatin B hydrochloride (C61H109N11O13.HCl). Physico-chemical as well as biological properties of the two separated components were analyzed. These properties pointed to closely resembling chemic...

Analysis of protein-ligand complexes and recognition of spatially conserved physico-chemical properties is important for the prediction of binding and function. Here, we present two webservers for multiple alignment and recognition of binding patterns shared by a set of protein structures. The first webserver, MultiBind (http://bioinfo3d.cs.tau.ac.il/MultiBind), performs multiple alignment of p...

transfusion-dependent patients such as those suffering from β-thalassaemia develop a fatal secondary haemosiderosis and consequently a selective iron chelator must be used to relieve such iron overload. 3- hydroxypyridin-4-ones are selective for iron(iii) under most biological conditions, but unlike desferrioxamine, are efficiently absorbed when administered orally. in this study, the synthesis...
