Synthesis of core–shell nanostructures with magnetic core and zeolitic shell is an ongoing challenge. Herein, a strategy presented for preparation γ-Fe2O3@mesoporous silica (mSiO2) nanoparticles containing ultrasmall domains silicalite-1 in the (γ-Fe2O3@mSiO2/silicalite-1). The consists solid-state reorganization precursor amorphous mSiO2 into using tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH) as orga...

Comparative studies over micro-/mesoporous Cu-containing zeolites ZSM-5 prepared by top-down treatment involving NaOH, TPAOH or mixture of NaOH/TPAOH (tetrapropylammonium hydroxide) were conducted. The results the catalytic data revealed highest activity Cu-ZSM-5 catalyst both in absence and presence water vapor. physico-chemical characterization (diffuse reflectance UV-Vis (DR UV-Vis), Fourier...

The block by the symmetric tetraethylammonium (TEA) ion derivatives tetrapropylammonium (TPrA), tetrabutylammonium (TBA), and tetrapentylammonium (TPeA) ions of fast chloride channels in acutely dissociated rat cortical neurons was studied with the excised inside-out configuration of the patch-clamp technique. When applied to the intracellular membrane surface, all three of the quaternary ammon...

The formation of precursors and the growth and aggregation of silicalite-1 crystals using tetrapropylammonium as a template (Si-TPA-MFI) has been studied in situ using X-ray scattering techniques. Simultaneous smallangle and wide-angle X-ray scattering (respectively SAXS and WAXS) experiments using synchrotron light showed that the formation of amorphous colloidal aggregates in water clear synt...

Polyspecific organic cation transporters in epithelia play an important role in the elimination of many endogenous bioactive amines and therapeutically important drugs. Recently, the first human organic cation transporter (hOCT1) was cloned from liver. The purpose of the current study was to determine the effect of molecular size and hydrophobicity on the transport of organic cations by hOCT1. ...

After site-directed mutagenesis, the organic cation transporter rOCT1 was expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes or human embryonic kidney cells and functionally characterized. rOCT1 belongs to a new family of polyspecific transporters that includes transporters for organic cations and anions and the Na(+)-carnitine cotransporter. When glutamate was substituted for Asp475 (middle of the proposed 1...

Tetraalkylammonium (TAA) derivatives have been reported to serve as stabilizers of asymmetrical cyanine dyes in aqueous solutions and to increase the yield and efficiency of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detected by end-point analysis. In this study, we compared the ability of various TAA derivatives (with alkyl chain ranging from 1 to 5 carbons) and some other compounds to serve as enhancers...

The surfactants cesium, tetramethylammonium, tetraethylammonium, tetrapropylammonium and tetrabutylammonium dodecyl sulfates (CsDS, TMADS, TEADS, TPADS, and TBADS) have been synthesized by ion-exchange. The critical micellization concentration in the absence of added salt (cmc) has been determined at 10, 25, and 40 °C using the electrical conductivity method. The cmc was found to decrease in th...
