Cutaneous leishmaniasis ( CL) is a parasitic infection which has been treated with different drugs without any conclusive treatment. In this case control study, the therapeutic effect of Thio- Ben ( combination of thioxolon and benzoxonium chloride) was compared to intralesional meglumine antymoniate ( glucantime) treatment. Two groups of patients were chosen at random, first group ( test, n1= ...

Whereas inorganic arsenic is classified as a human carcinogen, risks to human health related to the presence of arsenosugars in marine food are still unclear. Since studies indicate that human inorganic arsenic metabolites contribute to inorganic arsenic induced carcinogenicity, a risk assessment for arsenosugars should also include a toxicological characterization of their respective metabolit...

The reactions of 1 - chloro - 2 - nitro benzene with 2 - Amino thio phenol yield the 2 - ( ( nitro phenyl ) thio ) aniline and then 2 , 2' - thio dianiline of this compound was prepared . Also the symmetrical potentially pentadentate N 2 O 2 S Schiff base ligand 2 , 2' - ( ( ( thio bis (1 , 2 - phenylene ) ) bis ( azanilidene ) ) bis ( methenilidene ) ) diphenol ( H 2 L ) obtain by added salicy...

Single crystals of K2Hg(SCN)4 [dipotassium tetra-thio-cyanato-mercurate(II)] were grown from aqueous solutions of potassium thio-cyanate and mercury(II) thio-cyanate and studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In comparison with the previously reported structure model [Zvonkova (1952 ▸). Zh. Fiz. Khim. 26, 1798-1803], all atoms in the crystal structure were located, with lattice parameters...

About half of the drugs currently produced are chiral compounds, and about 90 % these compounds sold as racemates, consisting an equimolar mixture two enantiomers. Although they have same chemical structure, most optical isomers substances show marked differences in biological activity. It is known that presence a single asymmetric atom has become almost integral part advanced drug design. The ...

New 7-thio derivatives of 6,7-dihydro-1H-cyclopenta[d]pyrimidine-2,4(3H,5H)-dione have been synthesized by the reaction of 3-cyclohexyl-7-thio-6,7-dihydro-1H-cyclopenta[d]pyrimidine-2,4(3H,5H)-dione with alkylhalogenides. The synthesized compounds were tested for antioxidant activity on the model of Fe(2+)-dependent oxidation of adrenaline in vitro. It was found that the antiradical activity of...

Transphosphorylation thio effects in solution are studied using hybrid QM/MM calculations with a d-orbital semiempirical Hamiltonian. Activated dynamics simulations were performed for a 3' ribose-phosphate model in an explicit 20 A sphere of TIP3P water surrounded by a solvent boundary potential, and free energy analysis was performed using the weighted histogram analysis method. Single thio-su...

SCOPE In their recently published Scientific Opinion on Arsenic in Food, the European Food Safety Authority concluded that a risk assessment for arsenosugars is currently not possible, largely because of the lack of relevant toxicological data. To address this issue, we carried out a toxicological in vitro characterization of two arsenosugars and six arsenosugar metabolites. METHODS AND RESUL...
