a number of redox-active coordination polymers (cps) or metal-organic frameworks (mofs) have been successfully synthesized using transition metals and bridging ligands. this article aims to deal with gathering the aforementioned disperse issues regarding the electroactive cps. it also goes towards illustrating the effects of various factors on the electrochemical behavior of cps including natur...

the aim of the present study was to compare three reducing sugars (d-glucose, d-arabinose, d-mannose) with respect to the antioxidative activity characteristics of their caramelisation products (cps) prepared by monitoring uv-absorbance, browning intensity, ferric ion reducing capacity, fe2+ ion chelating activity as well as dpph radical scavenging activity. moreover, the effect of cps from d-g...

A number of redox-active coordination polymers (CPs) or metal- organic frameworks (MOFs) have been successfully synthesized using transition metals and bridging ligands. This article aims to deal with gathering the aforementioned disperse issues regarding the electroactive CPs. It also goes towards illustrating the effects of various factors on the electrochemical behavior of CPs including...

Background & aim: This study aimed to translate and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Farsi version of the childbirth perceptions scale (CPS) to assess women's experiences of their childbirth. Methods: In this validation study, the CPS was translated from English to Farsi using the forward-backward tra...

Healthy human sera (HHS) contain naturally acquired enterococcal antibodies which promote neutrophil-mediated killing. The target antigens remain unknown. The present study used a capsular polysaccharide (CPS)-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to investigate whether the HHS antibodies of 12 healthy donors bound to the CPS of four E. faecalis serotypes (CPS-A to CPS-D) and then employed ...

INTRODUCTION Clinical pathways (CPs) have been evaluated with regard to process optimization, economic effects, quality of care, patient satisfaction and staff satisfaction. IT- (information technology) supported CPs, integrated within the HIS (hospital information system), have been implemented in our department in 2004 for the first time world-wide. Herein, we describe the effect of this new ...

introduction: this study was designed to compare the effects of three vitrification procedures [conventional (c), open pulled straw (ops) and closed pulled straw (cps)] on morphological survival of two-cell mouse embryos and their subsequent development to hatched blastocysts. material and methods: two-cell mouse embryos were divided into four groups, control (194), ops (150), cps (155) and c (...

Group B Streptococcus (GBS) type III capsular polysaccharide (CPS III) was conjugated to recombinant cholera toxin B subunit (rCTB) using three different methods which employed (i) cystamine and N-succinimidyl-3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate (SPDP), (ii) carbodiimide with adipic acid dihydrazide (ADH) as a spacer, or (iii) reductive amination (RA). The CPS III-rCTB conjugates were divided into la...
