Imaging of expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2) in breast carcinomas may help to select patients eligible for trastuzumab therapy. The Affibody molecule Z(HER2:342) is a small (7-kDa) non-immunoglobulin affinity protein, which binds to HER2 with a picomolar affinity. Previously, a benzyl-DTPA conjugate of Z(HER2:342) was labeled with 111In and demonstrated good tar...

In the title compound, C(19)H(22)N(4)O(2), the tetra-hydro-pyrimidine ring adopts an envelope conformation (with the N atom connected to the benzyl group representing the flap). This benzyl group occupies a quasi-axial position. The two benzyl groups lie over the tetra-hydro-pyridimidine ring. The amino group is a hydrogen-bond donor to the nitro group.

background & aim: clematis is an ornamental and medicinal plant that is primarily planted as an ornamental plant. clematis orientalis is native to asia and central europe, used as an antiseptic and refrigerant. the propagation of clematis is very important. in this study, the effects of plant growth regulators on rooting and growth of the plants in vitro culture were examined. experimental:...

several plant growth regulators are used to improve the quality of cut flower in bulb plants, but their effectiveness depends on genotype and plant growth conditions such as nutrition status. a pot experiment was conducted under farm condition to study benzyl adenine (ba) and potassium nitrate interaction on floret diameter, stem diameter, flower height, flower number per bulb, fresh and dry we...

1. Endothelial cells were cultured in tissue culture flasks or on microcarrier beads and labeled with a lipid specific spin-label. 2. Exposure of endothelial cells to benzyl alcohol caused a dose- and time-dependent increase in membrane fluidity using electron spin resonance (ESR). Maximum fluidity was reached after a 5-min exposure to 100 mM benzyl alcohol. 3. Albumin permeability across endot...

An earlier computational study (CASPT2/pVDZ) by Winter et al. predicts the 3,5-bis(dimethylamino)benzyl cation to have nearly degenerate singlet and triplet states. Through product studies it is demonstrated that photolysis of 3,5-bis(dimethylamino)benzyl alcohol and its corresponding acetate and phenylacetate esters in alcoholic solvents produces a solvent incorporated adduct, 3,5-bis(dimethyl...

Nickel-catalyzed intermolecular benzylation and heterobenzylation of unactivated alkenes to provide functionalized allylbenzene derivatives are described. A wide range of both the benzyl chloride and alkene coupling partners are tolerated. In contrast to analogous palladium-catalyzed variants of this process, all reactions described herein employ electronically unbiased aliphatic olefins (inclu...

Benzaldehyde and its metabolic intermediates were effectively degraded by the brown-rot basidiomycetes Tyromyces palustris and Gloeophyllum trabeum. The pathway of benzaldehyde degradation was elucidated by the identification of fungal metabolites produced upon the addition of benzaldehyde and its metabolic intermediates. The oxidation and reduction occurred simultaneously, forming benzyl alcoh...
