Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and Density functional theory (DFT) methods were applied to the two thiocarbohydrazides derivatives (T1 and T2) as corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel in aqueous phase. Experimental results have shown that the corrosion rate follows the below order: T1>T2. Quantum chemical parameters such as hardness (η), electrophilicity (ω),polarizability (α), dipole momen...

The synthesis, structure, electrochemistry, and biological studies of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) complexes of thiocarbohydrazone ligand are described. The ligand is synthesized starting from thiocarbohydrazide and isatin. It is evident from the IR data that in all the complexes, only one part of the ligand is coordinated to the metal ion resulting mononuclear complexes. The ligand coord...

Previous studies have identified patients with susceptibility to bacterial infection associated with lactoferrin deficiency in dysmorphic neutrophils containing abnormal or no secondary granules and abnormal nuclear segmentation. We have investigated the subcellular distribution of vicinal glycol-containing complex carbohydrates in marrow and blood myeloid cells of such a patient using the peri...

mycelium from 24 h, reaching a maximum at 3-4 days then dcclining by day seven. Electron micrographs of the mycelium at later times was complicated by the state of the mycelium, but few granules could be seen. The granules, which were 100-400 A in diameter, appeared to be polysaccharide on the basis of periodic acid-thiocarbohydrazide-silver proteinate staining [ 21. Large amounts of lipid mate...

Degenerating chondrocytes are often localized in the lower hypertrophic and calcifying zone of rat epiphyseal cartilage. The ability of these degenerating chondrocytes to synthesize and secrete sulfated proteoglycans was investigated using the light microscopic radiosulfate labeling method and the high-iron diamine-thiocarbohydrazide-silver proteinate (HID-TCH-SP) method for sulfated complex ca...

Chondroitin sulfate is known to be present in normal and leukemic myeloid cells; however, its definitive subcellular location and association with other glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) has not been demonstrated. We have studied the type and distribution of GAGs in neutrophil granule subpopulations of normal and leukemic myeloid cells using ultrastructural, cytochemical, immunologic, and biochemical m...
